I have an idiotic political/moral/religious opinion.  Who will parrot it in a way that pleases me?

oh definately, you are so right! I feel I can add to this...I also believe that, if Jesus had nothing to say on the subject, and if his disciples too, had nothing to say on the subject...if nothing can be found in the collected mythology of the nomadic tribes that form Jesus's ancestry, and noone can be found to say anything that sounds like Jesus or his disciples or his nomadic ancestors could have said it, and if we cannot imagine ourselves what he might have done.........we should look to the Easter bunny for inspiration.

Liz, just chalk it up to ignorance and stupidity.  You have every right to express your opinion freely.

Go after my happiness and _darn_ what others think!

The irony here is somebody (even baptists) may consider you narrow minded. Because you don't agree with someone does not necessarily mean the other party is narrow minded. It does however mean you're as insistent they are wrong as they are you. Narrow Minded comes down to perception and who's perception.\n\nIf you are against morality - I would consider you narrow minded.  If you couldn't fathom the existence of a vastly superior being (known as God) who's technology is above human kind a gabillion times over - I would consider you narrow minded.\n\nPerspective.

just keep remaining quiet,  usually if people know you have a view point on something especially religion they will debate you on it...thats why i stay away from those types of subjects......

To some point of your question, I agree. I don't like others attemping to force thier beliefs on me. But, just listen anyway.They mean well, but do not realize what they are doing. But from a standpoint of their beliefs, they are doing what they think is right. Just grin and bear it.

Well, this is an interesting question. \n\nTo start off, I will say that I am Atheistic to the point of fanaticism. I am also very much a Republican, about as for right as anyone I know. In fact, the only way I am not conservative is in the bedroom...there I am extremely libertine.

Actually you sound more like a Liberal Democrat than either of what you were going for.\nI would need more info on your outlooks(?) on various topics before cementing a label on you though, but you seem to be very leftist. You've included nothing in your question that I think of when somebody says conservative or republican.

Please go ahead and look through my responses. While I do often disagree with the President and his supporters, I often state that I feel he has good intentions and is certainly not evil or stupid.\n\nI don't think President Bush is the best, but he is certainly not the worst either.\n\nOn the other hand, when you say that I am stupid and an infidel and unChristian (from your own list of questions), you are undermining your whole idea. You start seeking out people specifically to insult them and make them feel bad, and then claim it is unfair and impolite for them to behave just as badly as you do.

I agree that many people feel that their belief system is the only correct one.  This is blind and absurd.  Regardless of what a person believes, or how he/she got to that point, it should be respected.  Many people accept Christianity, Judaism, etc. w/o going through the process of disecting it and searching one's soul.  Others study the bible, quaran, torah...study science, discuss ideas with others and come to the best conclusion that one can come to with our limited source of knowledge on earth.\n\nSo, as believer in God and His power - I would never tell you that you can't express your opinions simply b/c your belief system in a higher power is different than mine!!\n\nHowever, I dislike the "annoying atheists" as much as I dislike the "bible thumping Christians" - the ignorant, pushy, arrogant few in ANY group will always give the majority a bad name.  So just as I respect your beliefs, and you seem to respect mine, I will consistently hold everyone else to the same expectation and will do my best to fulfill this myself.

sounds like your intellect is taking over the from the "brain-washing" of modern church-run christianity...I do the same as you, and gave up on the so-called christians.  do your own thing, as long as it is good, true, and beneficial to others without spite, judgement and intolerance, you will go to heaven....stay away from the bible thumpers

Fear of the thought police!!! Honesty used to be the best policy until every word you say became scrutinized for any hint of offensiveness - in any meaningful discussion there are generally at least two sides so someone is going to find something to be offended by.  In truth political correctness creates roadblocks to the dynamic thinking and creative dialog that has served human kind since the beginning.  As long as there are people like you asking the question we are not doomed - keep questioning everything it is the only way to achieve wisdom.

None of them will give you a straight answer. \n\nI bet each one of them will insult you instead of trying to explain their position. \n\nLiberals are so wrong with their ideas that they've twisted themselves into the most untenable positions.

Please.I heard conservative crap that's MORE eccentric.\n\nYou are indirectly admitting selective hearing.

Isn't it funny how you asked a simple queston and got so much hassle and thumbs down? Sorry, man. I feel where you were coming from. You asked because they say they're the party of Jesus Christ, morals, and religion and if you preach it, practice it. Beyond that they haven't done much. So that's why it should be a large responsibility of the party, people! If you're gonna use religion to your advantage, you better give something back!

I believe you are being moral..they are two totally different issues to deal with..and both have options and room for opinions..=)

You are all over the place with this one, son.  You'll be hard pressed to find a marxist conservative (the two are on opposite sides of the spectrum) and liberal is more or less between the two and doesn't really fully agree with either side.  Then you want this nutjob to be in the center; somebody has been listening to too much Rush Limbaugh, or Al Franken--I'm not sure which.
