How to argue with a Christian conservative...

[mumon]

Ask them if they agree with the following platform:

And then tell them that it's the Klan's platform.



It's amazing how close they are to the Republican party...maybe not.

1. and a few liberal points as well

but when you get right down to it, everything is bullshit when a key point is the racism thing.

2. Their frequent use of the term "White Christian America" makes it hard

to pass off as an official GOP platform. Of course, as Trent Lott has shown us, it IS very much what some of them believe. But they would never admit it in public.

3. Guilt by association

isn't logical. An intelligent conservative will point this out immediately.

4. Look, I"m not saying that all conservatives are Klan...

But I think the case can be made that a large number of them are racist.

However, that's moot- the real point I'm trying to make here is that The Ku Klux Klan's positions are closer to conservatives than liberals.

No brainer, right?

How come you never hear that on the "liberal" media?

5. sorry

You CAN'T argue with a christer wingnut. It is a waste of time arguing with a fundie nutjob whose mind is sealed shut.

Don't try it.

8. That's right, it is futile.

I used to live in East TN, where fundies flourish. They can be the nicest people, UNTIL your conversation crosses the line into religion. At that point, their eyes become almost opaque, and they either begin shouting Bible verses at you, or they quote their pastors, WHO CAN NOT BE WRONG.

As for the kkk thing (which I did not open, lest the dispicable address stay on my browser), it simply would not matter. They would either refuse to acknowledge your point, or they would go back to quoting verses. You would do just as well, arguing with a stump.

6. It reads like the Republican Party Platform

in our county and the State of Oregon. :crazy:

7. Give them THIS CHALLENGE :

If "Christian Conservatives" were what they claim to be, they would be all about CONSERVING CHRIST'S TEACHING, which is precisely what they AREN'T DOING. Challenge them to REALLY CONSERVE CHRIST'S teaching by meeting and promoting this web page http://www.LiberalsLikeChrist.Org/challenge .
