Is Liberalism a Religion?

[Lumpy 1]

It just seems that to disagree with Obama and his policies is blasphemy for Liberals/Democrats.

I wonder that liberalism has replaced religion for many Democrats...

This is STRAIGHT out of the Limbaugh transcripts!

Don't you have anything original to say?

Huh?

People who support any president while in office will always defend their position. Not sure why you think "liberals" are any different. And I use the quotation marks because many people (conservatives especially) have a tendancy to stereotype and categorize a huge range of people into one category as if they are all the same.

And the basic liberal ideal is that we should all be free to practice our own spirituality or religion and not impose it upon others. THAT was the foundation of our nation.

Lumpy even the noobs aren't fooled.

Then why to liberals try constantly to silence religious expression they do not subscribe to?

They don't, you know such an all-encompassing statement is bull.

I only see churches closing due to lack of funds to operate it.

I'm telling you that's all I see, it's called honesty.

If you have examples of churches being closed through pressure of the Atheist crowd than please enlighten me.

This is potentially an interesting notion because it talks about the relationship of people to beliefs.

Can you explain what you mean?

Are you suggesting that liberals take obama's policies on faith, and that they exist under him like blind sheep who do not question his Word.

Are you saying that they, like other religious subjects, cannot be persuaded by empirical evidence? -that they have created a quasi-Biblical cocoon of dated stories and single-entandra morals in place of dynamic learning and self-chosen values?

Given your thesis, I'm assuming you've taken courses in religion and psychology, so you can explain to us what the psychology of religious belief is in this instance. I'm guessing, like for Christians beneath an implacable God who they do not question, Obama'nites are blindly following dear leader. And their belief is more like a crutch, or a sign of arrested development whereby they cannot face the void of a barren cosmos - so they invent an all powerful Father Figure to protect them from the void. Indeed, rather than taking responsibility for their own actions and creating their own rules by which to live, they submit to God or Obama or [fill in the blank].

Are you are saying that Obamanites are no better than Christians or children who blindly obey what they mistakenly think is an all-powerful force - but is in fact a cruel joke representing their inability to think for themselves? Are you - in effect - saying that Obamanites are repeating the mistakes of Christians? Are you calling them weak children, scared sheep and stupid simpletons?

Most likely not, which is to say it has no real meaning.

And their belief is more like a crutch, or a sign of arrested development whereby they cannot face the void of a barren cosmos - so they invent an all powerful Father Figure to control their lives with an inviolable list of commandments. Indeed, rather than taking responsibility for their own actions and creating their own rules by which to live, they submit to God or Obama or [fill in the blank] that Christians/Liberal/Muslim sheeple submit to.

I'm just instigating discussion on the subject....yours are interesting..

Well I have to be a little more reserved than he used to be, but I'm more apt to try and be funny instead of miserable.

I'd appreciate it if it were me.
