that Republicans are born Christian?

I heard that on the street today.

Am I the only one it makes absolutely no sense to?

I thought it was funny....two guys, walking to lunch, talking loudly about how you can't discuss politics and religion together, because Republicans...are born Christian. Really. And then they walked into a Sushi restaurant.

I'm glad I learned secret Republican handshake before they found out I'm not Christian...they can't kick me out of the club once I know the handshake. :tongue

No, no . . . You heard it wrong.


It was "they were Republicans and were born again . . . into Independents." :)

A Republican is a jackass who thinks (s)he is a Christian.

The problem is the definition of Christian.

In the case of the Republican, it means One Who Worships a Paper God Authorized by a Republican.

Not all conservatives think that religion has a place in government. IMO it's those who do who give us a bad name. Some of us understand that god in politics = horrible disaster.

I'm a conservative and Jesus has nothing to do with it. In fact, I never asked him his opinion. :)

I prefer sake with sushi. It's fun to watch guys (read: sales reps) who don't realize how strong it is (they think white wine=wussy wine) get in big trouble with it. :D

It does take a while to get used to the affects, but once you do you can drink a whole lot and not get too bombed while your hard drinking buddies get wasted

I eat sushi and I'm Republican. Mostly. :tongue

What I find so funny is that most Christians believe that you must be baptized once you've accepted Christ - you're not born anything. Most Christians believe that you're born a sinner.

Ah well.

It takes all kinds.
