Fundie Christians battle the "war on Christmas" but to hell with the poor
sorry, but these folks ain't my idea of christians... which is a shame because there's a lot of really committed, really decent, christian folks out there and the fundies are giving them a bad name... if jesus is watching, i wouldn't imagine he'd be too happy about it either...
why...? because they aren't interested in the have-not's... they're much more interested in establishing a theocratic state and getting the rest of us to toe their line... Submit To Propeller
