I'm really tired of evangelical pundits and leaders. I'm tired of their telling me how to live my life, and believing that they have every right to do so. I'm tired of hearing about the end times. I'm tired of their using bumper sticker politics to drive their divisive politics down our throats. Take abortion for example, I don't know anyone who is pro-abortion. In fact, if there is a either or split on that issue, it's that one group believes that all life no matter how tiny should be protected without thought of anyone except God in the equation, and the other group believes something other than that.
I'm especially tired of what I heard on the radio today. And that's an evangelical spokesman talking about how evangelicals are now starting to drift from this war because of the recent Afghanistan crisis around the converted Muslim. So that's what it takes? That's what it takes to lose support for these wars? One guy? It wasn't the millions protesting in the streets? It wasn't the thousands dead? It wasn't the lies of the administration? It wasn't their incompetence? It wasn't an evaluation of our current disastrous security situation versus where it was five years ago?
When will evangelical pundits and leaders realize that with the power of the hordes comes the responsibility of not acting like 16 year olds with too many guns and too much testoterone.
