font-family:"Verdana Ref"'>| Hi <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Wayne</st1:place></st1:City>,<br>
| <br>
| Thanks for sharing -- it was an interesting read.<br>
| <br>
| There is one specific part of the Op-Ed piece I want to comment on.
This quote<br>
| below comes from a letter written by Bob Jones III & sent to Bush
following the<br>
| reelection:<br>
| "In your re-election, God has graciously granted <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">America</st1:place></st1:country-region> -
though she doesn't<br>
| deserve it - a reprieve from the agenda of paganism," Mr. Jones wrote.
"Put your<br>
| agenda on the front burner and let it boil. You owe the liberals nothing.
They<br>
| despise you because they despise your Christ." <br>
| <br>
| This thinking, I think, is a HUGE part of the problem and one of the things I<br>
| find so unbelievably offensive.<br>
| <br>
| To whom does Christ belong? I was raised to believe that Christ belongs
to all<br>
| who embrace him & his teachings.<br>
| <br>
| In a nutshell, the recurring theme I see amongst conservatives and
evangelicals<br>
| is a tendency to want *ownership* of Christ & of the interpretation of
his<br>
| teachings, not to mention of the whole Bible! Those who disagree with
their<br>
| particular interpretation are called "non-believers,"
"un-believers," and worse.<br>
| <br>
| Quite frankly, this is hurtful and offensive to the majority of Christians,
who<br>
| *don't* share those extremist and arrogant and offensive views. You
don't see<br>
| us going around telling other Christians that they aren't really Christians,
or<br>
| that we "own" Jesus & his teachings.<br>
| <br>
| As I see it, the behavior of those conservatives and evangelicals is creating
a<br>
| bigger wedge in our society than the "hot" issues of freedom of
choice or gay<br>
| marriage could *ever* cause.<br>
| <br>
| In my world, there's plenty of room for all religious beliefs, and for those
who<br>
| haven't made any leap of faith as well.<br>
| <br>
| How terribly sad that some fringe so-called "Christians" have
decided to claim<br>
| ownership of Christ . . . and that so many folks are sitting by not
questioning<br>
| it. Perhaps those less secure in their spirituality are just going
along with<br>
| it out of fear, which is sad, too.<br>
| <br>

| <br>
| The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do<br>
| nothing.<br>
