But there is a line between nutty beliefs and unusual viewpoints(or at least non mainstrem ones). Someone who believes in the literal interpretation of the bible rejects scientific advances and rationality. If they believe in the power of prayer over the power of antibiotics they could reduce our national health care bill and help stave off population growth all at the same time.Aardvark154 said:
Absolutely. BTW he's only infallible when he speaks 'ex-cathedra' - in his position as the pope - and only on issues of faith and morals. So if he says the Bears are going to beat the Bengals dont bet the farm.onthebottom said:
Yes that is how it works. But the fun part is that I get to decide when I'm speaking "ex-cathedra".chiller_boy said:
The left tries to tie religious extremism to the right wing political viewpoint. The truth is that religious people are no more likely to be right wing than non-religious people.
This CNN article is suggests that since Palin is a member of a church that sometimes has religious nuts associated with it that therefore she is also a religious nut. That’s an illogical argument.
The left is so eager to point their crooked little fingers at any and all religious nuts on the right, but consider their own golden boy, Obama. There’s lots of suggestion that he’s a closet Muslim, running for office.

That fact that Iran and much of the Islamic world considers him to be “one of them” is disturbing enough.
In spite of all that, I believe that Obama is not a Muslim. You can bet that I would cry foul if I thought he was. I believe that he was raised as a Muslim and left Islam. I can’t fault anyone for being born a Muslim. It wasn’t his choice. However, he certainly is less than forthcoming about his background because he denies ever being a Muslim.
The evidence suggests that Obama believes in something worse than Islam. He believes in Black Liberation Theology.

To understand Black Liberation Theology, here’s a quote from James Cone:
Obama attends Trinity church for 20 years which preaches Black Liberation Theology and the pastor is one of his closest friends. He spent 20 years listening to this racist garbage and now he wants to be prez.
Obama refuses to wear a stars and stripes pin and he refuses to place his hand on his heart during the anthem. Obama and his kind consider the United States to be a “white man’s country.” His goal once in office is the “destruction of the white enemy.”
If he isn’t a scary, religious whack-job then we need to redefine the term.

In fairness there is a significant difference between someone who doesn't believe in Evolution and someone who doesn't believe that it is moral to use certain common medical treatments.chiller_boy said:
Or to somewhat introduce a red herring, what about those parents who won't immunize their children despite overwhelming evidence of the efficacy of doing so. The vast majority of whom are not fundamentalist Christians.
If Palin is a religious nutjob where does Obama fit in? he is the one who has been a member of an extremist church for over twenty years.
Quiet frankly his religious connections are more worry some then Palin's.
