Novel imagines Sarah Palin presidency

This aspect of the Religious Right needs to be put out in the OPEN.

The last thing the country needs is a Bible Thumping President,
who THINKS they are GODS messenger and that Armageddon is their DESTINY!

They have the BIG BUTTON to make it happen, and just wacky enough to go through with IT! After all, GOD wants IT! (ie. stop abortions)

It's bad enough that every time you turn around, the RIGHT are trying to IMPOSE their silly beliefs on the rest of the country, all the while shouting for "Less Government Intervention"!

Yeah. Good thing we've never had anyone running that fits that description, huh?
 
Rich doesn’t only cite Palin as an example, he also looks at the 2012 Republican presidential field and says, “you had all but two or three who are largely motivated by very strong, very conservative Christian beliefs.” And to those who say those pols are just pandering to the conservative base, he says nonsense.

“The biggest mistake that we can make is that we don’t believe that they believe what they say. And for many of them, they do mean exactly what they say. If you think that the rapture is going to come in your lifetime, if you believe as many of them do that hell is a physical place where you’re confined to for all eternity, these things motivate you.”

Obviously the Christian right isn’t going to blatantly call for repealing the First Amendment or amending the Constitution to make Christianity the official state religion (although that’s a fantasy they clearly adhere to). But they’ll seek to erode the wall of separation between church as state nonetheless, a wall of separation mandated by the Framers.

The Christian right’s opposition to privacy rights is motivated by its belief that ‘personhood’ begins at conception, and the subjective and irrelevant position that abortion is a ‘sin.’

The Christian right’s opposition to equal protection rights for same-sex couples is predicated on irrelevant and un-Constitutional religious dogma that marriage is only between a man and a woman with the sole purpose of procreation.

And the Christian right’s advocacy of compelled prayer in public schools represents their desire to indoctrinate children as citizens of a ‘Christian Nation,’ and manifest a hostile environment for those who are not Christian, that they are outsiders and not legitimate members of society.

In essence the Christian right is motivated by ignorance, hate, and fear. In this very forum, for example, we’ve seen fundamentalist Christians post that America is ‘damned,’ and that the country is ‘sinking,’

Needless to say the Christian right will deny these motives, and make an inane, baseless argument that Christians are ‘under attack’ and being ‘persecuted,’ when in fact it is they who seek to deny others their rights and codify religious dogma into secular law, in violation of the Constitution.

Disagree. It is a common sense definition of the marital relationship. The gay thing is a manufactured concept to gain civil rights and privileges. Rights and privileges which arguably could be granted o fishing buddies who share a passion for fishing. Leave it at that and leave marriage the hell alone.

the RIGHT like to live in a delusional world, fueled by their dark age beliefs.

a new state legalizes gay marriage almost every week.
13 now. It was half that, a year ago.

Next your going to bring up the "marry your toaster" argument, like the rest of your moronic clan.
