    Not at all. Just the truth. How can Democrats demonize religion and then make a big deal out of it when it fits their political narrative? That is all Cartoon Ken posted. And the only reason. He is a fraud like many.

    Did you see the weeping leftists singing Christian hymns in front of the Supreme Court, Cap'n - for an atheist Jewish woman.

    The kicker: They sang a hymn written by a man who captained a slave ship.

    Sorry, but your strawman is on fire. You might want to put that out before we go any further.

    Most (D)s are Christians. They tend to prefer the older mainstream Protestant faiths like Methodist, Episcopalian, and the newer diverse flavors like UU. Many are also Catholics.

    The sadness of the OP is in the deaths of 200,000 of our neighbors, relatives, fellow citizens. It's beautiful and touching that the National Cathedral chose to honor them, and remind us of the continuing pandemic, lest we grow complacent.

    That's what I was wondering. He hates God, hates churches, hates faith, hates all religion.......ahhhh...I found the connection...he hates Trump, too.
    So, his post really isn't about a church ringing bells or mourning. As usual it has to tie in to politics and Trump.

    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    No need for links. Just read the threads. Democrats hate religion. Particularly Christianity. If they made a case against church and state, that is one thing (and which I agree with). That is not what it is though.

    He doesn't consider them Christian. I told him I was raised Catholic and got his bigoted view of them. Must be an Evangelical, I guess. For some reason enough of them froth at the mouth about Catholics. Oh, we had a scandal of trying to handle priest abuses for sure but they are so far from innocent themselves. Trying to hold slavery as being in line with holy doctrine seems pretty far out there. Judge not less thee be judged.
