Not to sound facetious, but I have far more trouble understanding how intelligent Christian people could espouse liberalism, than Lee and the LC's. I'm serious here. It just boggles my mind how people could become aware of the lies and corruption of the current administration, and still support it. Understanding the folks in the LC is far easier.

So the question of the day is:
Why is it that we presume that an intelligent Christian cannot espouse liberalism in general?
To answer this question we first need to separate liberalism from any particular administration and from the evil actions that individuals with positions make take.
There are many evil and/or stupid actions/positions that are take by people of both sides of the political spectrum:
- Abortions
- Killing abortion doctors
- Railing on women who have had abortions
- Homosexuality
- Physical, economic, sociological and psychological assaults on homosexuals
- Acting unrighteously toward any who are identified as homosexual
- Forcing people who disagree to act as if they agree (under threat of law or monetary penalty)
These are just a few examples of how some people act on both sides of a few of the hot debates of the day.
These are issues that various people think of as immoral.
We are not talking about these things.
Let's stick to the general position of liberalism v conservatism.
And if you want to consider the LCM in terms of a liberal position, I know that there have been some illegal aliens that were regular attenders in Dallas. That may not be a liberal position, but it is pretty laid-back relative to standing for the conservative position.
