deconcentrate's Pre-Election Day Rant
LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY morchades)
I figured his post would be of interest to this community:
As many of you know, I am a Christian. This means I believe in many things, most of them scientifically improbable, and I'm okay with that. It also means that many of my beliefs, quite frankly, are more than a little bizarre to say the least. Actually, I would say most Christians would find my mindset a little cockeyed, too. As C.S. Lewis once called himself, I label myself in return: "a converted pagan among apostate Puritans". I enjoy getting into debates about faith and religion, and I'm seriously considering buying a copy of Dawkins' new book, simply because it does sound fascinating.It gets better from there.
That's who I am. I'm not going to say I'm a good Christian, because that would be absurd - who's the one checking? - but I do my best.
Which is why I'm going to say that if any of you vote for a supposedly "Christian conservative" candidate this year, I am going to scream.
