Reply #2: Good question.... [View All]

Though my wife and I are Christian, we've come to the conclusion that church on Sunday mornings is NOT where to find like minded people (far too many judgers, hypocrites, nasty people). We love the world we've been given to live in - the beauty of nature, etc. We spend our Sundays in nature, in our yard, gardening, kayaking - being close to nature. We feel like our view on religion is ours, and it is not up to us to push it on people, convince people, or judge people - each person has their own journey and decision on this.

We are Democrats because it seems on paper (if not in practice - neither party gets very good grades these days) to have the spirit of helping people, thinking about things, being open minded, valuing intellect and diversity. It is far less mean, far less about greed and money, far less about lock step sameness. So, it works for us....though there must be a better way for a democracy to function than what we've seen lately.
