aren't all Christians Christian?
This is on the topic's periphery, but am I the only one who is objecting to appropriating the word ''Christian'' by one denomination and denying it to others? Aren't all people who think of Jesus as their savior Christians? These do include Episcopelians, Catholics, Lutherans, Quakers, Greek and Russian Orthodox, etc etc etc. etc. etc. etc.

2 books of the New Testament were written by a doctor.
As a Christian I find it strange other believers ignore this glaring fact. 2 books of the New Testament were written by a doctor. His name was Luke and he wrote both the Gospel of Luke & the book of Acts. He was never condemned for being of a ''faithless'' profession, neither did he change his profession. Also, there are numerous examples ...

How does a democrat tick?
Democrats are into politics for the sole purpose of obscuring the definition of morality, and passing subsequent laws that make morality illegal in the United States. Democrats want all lights to be green and let everyone fend for themselves at the intersections. Because of the irresponsible and inconsiderate lifestyle of this misrepresentation ...

I expect better of Rosin
Hanna Rosin's crass articulation (ie, ''In fact, so cavalier are conservatives about Sarah Palin's wreck of a home life that they make the rest of us look stuffy and slow-witted by comparison'') reveals her embedded bias against Christian values. Christians realize that Sarah Palin is a human, who, just like Hanna Rosin, commits sin and has ...

Missing the point?
I think you might be missing that the conservatives simply have better arguments as to the nature of the family and what is most conducive to its well being. They have answers, and people need those. It's true that liberals tend to have answers to many other things pertinent to a happy life, but they are not the same issues and not the same ...

Comparing Christ to Abu Ghraib Prisoners?
I find it astonishing and degrading to Christians that the author compared Christ to prisoners at Abu Ghraib! ''Jesus of Nazareth was not only physically brutalized but also casually humiliated during his torture, echoing the abuses at Abu Ghraib. In 21st-century Iraq, some American soldiers posed prisoners with women's underwear on their heads ...

Re: Does Jesus Condone Capital Punishment?
ANSWER: In the context of the American penal system and American capitalist society: NO!!!!!!! Immorality and crime are tied to many things, including family upbringing, socialization, economic condition, political status, and more. Jesus (upon whom be peace and God's blessings) would likely reject the way America functions, period. And ...
