Comparing Tea Party To Religious Right

The Tea Party has been making me nervous. While I am a fan of less government and less spending, I am vehemently opposed to the Religious Right's theocratic desires to put (their) God "back in government". My philosophy is keep religion out of the government and keep the government out of religion Evidently a lot of Tea Partiers feel different. Check out this article.

Advice for the GOP

Do not let the Conservative Christians bully you into putting Huckabee on the ticket with McCain. They will tell you that you need to do this to bring them in line, since many consider McCain not "conservative enough".

Before you buy into this, ask yourself: what are they going to do if you don't?

Vote for Hillary?

Can you say empty threat?


Putting Huckabee on your ticket will just alienate the center. Because who do you think is scarier to the moderates... Hillary or the chance the theocrat could end up president if something happens to McCain?

Remember, you don't need to win over the Religious Reich, you need to win over the middle.

This guy is scary. I hope that it doesn't come down to Huckabee vs. Clinton, because I'd hate to have to vote for Clinton.

Why we should be afraid of the Religious Right

Speaking at Liberty University following Jerry Fallwell's death, Newt Gingrich had this to say:

"I think anybody on the left who hopes that when people like Reverend Falwell disappear that the opportunity to convert all of America has gone with them fundamentally misunderstands why institutions like this were created," Gingrich said.

That is the problem with the Religious Reich. They are against freedom of religion because they think everyone should be their religion. And while some Christians may be nodding their heads, think on this: which denomination?



When I was a staunch atheist in high school and a group of my classmates set about trying to convert me, all I had to do was throw something out that they differed on and soon they were too busy arguing which version of Christianity was "right" and forgot about non-believer me.

History is full of examples why intertwining religion and government is a horrible, horrible idea. Plus the Religious Right has a total lack of respect for individual's rights because they believe that their religion should be imposed on everyone and they want to use the goverment as a tool to do so.

I don't want to be converted, thank you very much.
