Religious Right Might Need to Checkity Check Themselves

Recent conversations with, and emails circulating among, my friends from the Religious Right have me drawing conclusions ... maybe even judging ...

One friend subscribes religiously to any form of media willing to bash the leader of the free world. That same friend is beside himself that the biased mainstream media let's Obama get away with his lies and Godless tactics.  A recent right-based circulating email  ended with, "We need to get rid of this Socialist, Muslim in the White House" because he is supportive of funding the acceptance of Palestinian Refugees onto our land.

It seems to me the Christian Conservatives among us tend to either pity or hate anyone not religiously in line with their senses of morality.

Pity and hate are symptoms of arrogance.  Christ preached humility ...  It's time to put down the torches and pitchforks.  It's time for Christlike tolerance to replace religious hypocrisy.

Remember what they were and are still saying about Bush. They were not on the right but left. Balance and truth are what we need.

How do you know truth when you see it?

Maybe it's because I live in Utah and you in Cali, but our local media tends to dress right ... if you know what I mean ...
