The Conservatives in America don’t represent Christian values. Let’s not kid ourselves here. For one thing, Christ is way too big of a loser for the Conservatives to embrace.
Look at Christ. He didn’t own a house or a car, nor did he hold steady work, or pay into Workmen’s Comp. He wasn’t able to get any tax exemptions or unemployment insurance for himself or anybody else. All he had was a rag-tag group of followers that ditched him when he needed them the most.
Now he sits at the right hand of The Father; but what good does that do anybody while they’re trying to maintain upbeat home mortgage investments, accessible loan markets, and the opportunity for a bright future?
Conservatives want their shock and awe, their closed borders, the way of life that Christ intended for them. After all, if all Christ ended up with was a scourging and death on the cross, why shouldn’t those who believe in him get some of the rewards due him? To give up their little piece of Heaven here on Earth would surely be a travesty, and therefore every ounce of our strength should be expended to ensure that Conservatives maintain a status befitting that of the Sons of God.
For all their talk of fiscal responsibility, financial viability, etc., Conservatives were strangely silent when the home mortgage crisis hit and sent its tremors around the globe. When Conservatives had the chance to live up to their so-called lasses-faire manifesto, they grimaced and shuffled their feet just to show how much they hated to do this, but essentially said “Some of these fellers are too big to fail, and if we let ‘em, they’re gonna take everybody down with ‘em.”
Conservatives basically poise themselves at the center of the Pro-Life stance in order to manipulate their voting base and their PAC status. Beyond that they hold little respect for life or Christian doctrine.
Any redeemed-by-the-blood Conservative should be able to tell you that Christ once said that whatsoever a person asked for and believed on him, that thing he would do. I’m just curious as to what kind of prayers God is hearing these days from the Conservatives.

Mark what you need is a TV show or be on talk radio. Not sure what to call your show but it is needed. Sometimes I'm afraid of the direction the conservatives are headed.
