I have been "addicted" Dkos for at least a year or so and I post from time to time.
I was just wondering how many devout Christians are here on Dailykos? I love Jesus and I feel that our religion has been coopted by the lunatic right fringe.
I know deep in my heart several things:
- Jesus was a the biggest liberal ever
- Jesus did not hate homosexuals or anyone else for that matter
- God made us stewards of the Earth and does not want us to destroy it.
- Jesus was not a White man
- The heart of any true Christian is to take care of the poor, sick, elderly, and disenfranchised.
So, why is it that people like Hagee, Fallwell,Pat Roberson(or whatever the heck his name is) and their ilk get to make us look like a bunch of fools.
I hope Obama reaches out the left wing, liberal Christians like the Sojourners and is not afraid to talk faith without looking like a panderer.
And for my Jewish and Muslim brothers and sisters the love is equally shared as well and we all share a common desire of love, peace, and prosperity.
