Janie said this, good points to consider.

Do you feel more people hate Christians since Bush took office and due to his vocal "values voters" whose values are hard to understand as being the same as the ones taught by Jesus.
Does anyone remember the Christian left when the word Christian is thought of..

I feel many of the Christian right support things Jesus would not approve of like more love for rich than poor.

They hate people on welfare and forgetting that Jesus loved the poor and gave the workers who worked just an hour in his parable the same wage (benefits) as those who worked hard all day and we are to share and help others while they loudly express their hatred for people who they perceive are lazy and beneath them not valuing peace and deriding peace activists and trusting military over God for protection, no concern about dropping depleted uranium...
They Love big business and corporations despite its receiving far more tax dollars in corporate welfare despite its tax cheating, job outsourcing, environment destroying, political bribing, etc while having no problem with cutting 50 billion from social program.SO I want to know why do they ignore the teachings of the one they say they follow, do more people hate Christians due to Bush and Christian right and does anyone remember there are Christians on the left who disagree with them?
to further address some of your responses..you may call it a political rant, but I am genuinely wondering what the effort of Bush & his religious right supporters are on how people feel about Christians given the tendency to generalize. I speak with many young people & they totally HATE Christians saying they are intolerant, hateful, and judgmental. this bothers me as a Christian.
The reason I use the word hate is just browse through answers & see the hateful opinions expressed by the right about people on welfare whose individual circumstances are totally unknown to the person making mean judgments and in just one post about an anti Bush protest, all 17 rep answerers said things like they hoped the organizer is shot in the head, that all the liberals are shot, run over by trucks, imprisoned and tortured, exiled to dangerous countries, were called idiots, morons & other insults..one even going so far as to ask the question if people would go to the nationwide protests & shoot them...
