I guess so...
I did not mean to make another straw man about Christians. I know you meant fundamentalists, and I am not trying to generalize. I think the leasers of America, and especially the people destroying the constitution are not Christian. They might say they are Christian, but I don't make that the only criteria for it as you do. They can say they are a moose, but it doesn't make it so.
I don't think Obama is a secret Muslim, but I doubt he is a practicing Cristian either. I wasn't trying to frame your argument in an unfair way to make it easier for me to disagree.
It just strikes me that we both see people trying to mess up long standing rules and foundations of the country, but you see them as Fundies and I see them as agnostics or even some weird Satanism. They certainly are in shady secret societies.
America is not a Christian nation, although they do prattle on about it. It may be a Jewish nation (but the would also be untrue, because people who only 'say' they are jewish are not, it is a racial identity). It is just funny that you see Fundies and I see Secularism, but we are both angry.
I'm sorry for being so fickle in the head that you think I keep making fallacies, but I am not trying to make the points you say I did. I know you meant Fundies, so I will now refer to them as Fundies and not Christians. And it is not a no true Scotsman fault as well, because where would we stand if I suddenly shouted "I am a true Scotsman!"? I mean, I am not. I have never been to Scotland. But could I turn around and deride anyone for arguing with me that they are in fallacy, when they are not.
So I maintain that those politicians are not Christian, in the sense that if they are they are going to Damnation for breaking EVERY rule they supposedly forward. they are only saying they are beleivers to try to win points in hearts and minds.
