What is the blog about? Well, I touched on the liberal Christian propaganda bit -- I'm a pro-life Democrat, a somewhat rare species. When I hit the liberal blogs (which I do every day), I always pay special interest to religious issues. There's this whole question right now of how the Democratic party can do away with their fear of religion, and the idea that Republicans don't own Jesus. (Jesus is a Democrat, by the way.) Anyway, while I'm pretty sure that Jesus is pro-life, I've got an inkling that He's also pro-education, pro-universal health care, pro-funding for the arts, pro-environment, pro-helping the poor in our country and abroad, pro-human rights, etc., etc. (And as we all know, Republicans hate art, music, the environment, poor people, and education.)
and melly, i also didn't find fahrenheit 9/11 as radical as i'd expected. but, if it gets all sorts of people to think, i'm happy. it serves its purpose, right? # |
