Just Saying ...

    Let me first begin by saying I am not terribly religious. For full disclosure I do go to church, but it is a completely inclusive "open affirming" congregation. I enjoy the community church offers, though I take much of the bible with a grain of salt.
    As someone of mitigated faith, I have never felt the need to "choose a side" between those of faith and the secular community. I don't think it was ever an issue growing up, but it seems more and more the Liberal secular members of society are throwing down the gauntlet, and forcing a conflict. Either you reject the church, and believe everything they believe 100% or get labeled "the enemy." I truly feel if people cared about "equality," they would find a way to allow for everyone to have their own views. Sadly Liberals are not truly interested in equality, they want every right and privilege awarded to every American, AND special treatments. They truly do not understand the very word they tend to stand for.
   As Liberals continue to demand capitulation to their views, they continue to divide. I truly believe this strategy will backfire though as more and more people side with religion. Admittedly there are crackpots on the extreme Right as well as the LEFT I would not want to hang with, but in general, as the moral decline of our country continues under Liberal direction, more people will be forced to choose a side, and the side with a strong moral foundation will look more and more appealing.
    Maybe that is not the truth, maybe it is merely a hope. Because if I am proven wrong, that would mean more and more people are willing to embrace our moral decline, and if that is the truth we are faced with, then circle the wagons folks, because the societal collapse is not far behind.
