Reply #27: True, ltfranklin; but do you really expect thinking Christians to [View All]

fight for atheists, agnostics, pantheists, Wiccans, Janeists, Buddhists, Muslims, etc. etc.? How many thinking Christians are there who would literally, materially fight the installation of a Christian theocracy? It's been my experience that people only get angry enough to fight when they themselves are experiencing pain in their very own households. So I'd really like to see some numbers (if there were a way) on how many members of the Christian majority would fight for the non-Christian minority if a Christian theocracy were fully installed here. It's so easy to sit back and not lift a finger when YOUR group is not experiencing any pain. (And if you look up "Easy" in the dictionary, there is a cross-reference to "Average American!" We're spoiled, and I do include myself on that.)

I totally agree with what you wrote, by the way. I just am not sure how many thinking Christians there are who would "get it" that their own brand of Christianity would be at risk. Especially if life is fairly comfortable for them under the new Christian theocracy?

Criminy, I sure am cynical as hell today?!?! LOL It's rainy and cold here, perhaps it's affecting my mood.
