    I know a lot of people that think Lobster, Shrimp and other sea insects as totally disgusting.

    Then you know NOTHING about Christ or his teachings.

    Jesus life and actions and teachings GO AGAINST everything the Republican right claim.

    "Give Caesar what is Caesars.." yet these babies bitch and moan about taxing the top 4% wealthy more than the rotting poor. Hello?

    They fought against passing a bill to help the medical problems of the men and women that are far braver than YOU and risked their life on 9/11 in the twin towers to save people.

    They promote Fear to keep their PATRIOT ACT alive so they can enact more draconian laws to control the people.... Wait both side do this... They are equally scummy in that...

    So you are saying that people should be kind, honest, and caring. but the government should SMITE everyone at every chance.. all law infractions is the death penalty. As the Govt, we do not like homosexuality, so San Fransisco will be nuked as a lesson to you all. Or does your church not teach about Sodom and Gomorrah or the Flood, or what God did to Egypt?

    Again, you don't know the bible at all. The Old testament God is a vengeful and Angry God. I suggest you go and find a bible and actually read it and not listen to the propaganda you are hearing at your "progressive church"

    First it's because US history in high-school is not history but a fairytale. They don't teach how we did horrible evil things to steal land from the Indians. How we did worse things to the indian population than Hitler did and in fact he learned them from us.

    Or the nasty crap we did to the poor, how the slave trade is what built this country. etc...... Or any truths about the founding fathers.

    College level US history and real research digs up all kinds of things that make you literally shit yourself as to how violent the United states has been. And it explains the preconception that other countries have of us. Some of the crap we have pulled with other countries is insane. There is a reason the Canadians came down and burned the whitehouse to the ground.

    "Check the percentage of people that actually know anything of what we're supposed to learn about History in school. Go ask questions like how did the I and II World War started, who was Benjamin Franklin, Stalin, Cristopher Columbus..."

    DO the same with members of Congress and the news!

    Cripes I heard crap out of the mouths of Some senators and Fox news pundits during the past 3 weeks about the congress working during Christmas that Claim they are christian say things about Christ that are blatantly wrong.

    And these are from people who CLAIM they worship and follow the teachings of Christ. I guarantee they know even less about American History.

    The overall education of Americans, from inner city kids to rich, well to do college educated leaders is atrocious. We're a nation of morons.
