What relevancy does someones belief in the imaginary man that lives in the clouds have to do with anything?

 

[paulitician]

I really do believe this is more important than most like to think. I truly believe the further you move away from God,the more lost you become. I think Church is important.

Another one from the 'holier than thou' brigade trying to imply that church goers are better people than those who don't go.

I know some are gonna get real snotty and start up with the predictable "Evil Hypocrite" rhetoric,but i guess i held out hope for something different. Church is a very comforting and uplifting experience. I think more Americans should attend. Being with God really does soothe the soul.

Sooooooooooooooooo......??????

I think many Left/Democrats especially,get the wrong impression of Church by way of dumbed-down Media. Church is a positive experience and leaves you feeling refreshed and full of love. It really does help.

Can you imagine the amount of Holy Water it would take if lefties decided to go to a church? We'd all need crucifixes as well!

Religious beliefs are important for some people. They are not important for most others. Some need the foundation of religion to function, most don't. Some feel as if they're superior because of their religious beliefs, as do some atheists (kind of a common annoying behavior there), some feel that religious people are one step removed from neanderthals and are incapable of thought.

I do not ascribe to that particular line of reasoning. Many religious people I deal with are very conversant in science, many are far more conversant than liberal posters here

Most religious people I know follow their religion because they were born into it and they follow along because of tradition. There are a few though, who need it. Just like there are liberlas and conservatives who need their alcohol or drugs. People, as a race, tend to be addictive. Be it suger, sex, alcohol, drugs or religion. That's just the way people are. To ignore that is simply idiotic.

Religious people (at least the really nice ones (who vastly outnumber the bad ones) actually do a lot of good work that helps those in need. Something that liberals almost never do relying on the government to do it instead....even when the government fails to do so.

A belief that mankind needs religion to be a good person is wrong. A belief that a person of faith is bad, is likewise wrong.

Common-sense is MUCH-more important.

Jack Abramoff is an Orthadox Jew; Scott Roeder is a born-again Christian; Eric Rudolph identified with radical Christian Churches.

They belong to the Church Of Obama, why should they bow to any other deity? Didn't Chris Matthews refer to the tingles he felt?
