A much more honest question would be "If you're a Christian...."
I like the stance of the tea party. But since it has no real national organization (it is more like a movement) there is no real defined party platform.
A Lawyer in TX came up with 10 basic positions that is about as close to a national position as anything else.
http://www.contractfromamerica.com/
1. Protect the Constitution
2. Reject Cap & Trade
3. Demand a Balanced Budget
4. Enact Fundamental Tax Reform
5. Restore Fiscal Responsibility & Constitutionally Limited Government
6. End Runaway Government Spending
7. Defund, Repeal, & Replace Government-run Health Care
8. Pass an ‘All-of-the-Above” Energy Policy
9. Stop the Pork
10. Stop the Tax Hikes
In those 10 I see nothing about religion.
Those 10 issues I agree with.
While some people who also agree with those issues also support religion... That does not mean all do.
And your link has nothing to do with the tea party. It has to do with religion.

QuoteQuoteTime to get rid of the ruling class.
Great in concept. But someone has to be in charge, and it's naive to think that whomever that is won't start acting in the exact same way the current ruling class is.
We're pretty much screwed. The only hope is to keep supporting people whose ideas we like, and don't support those we don't. And maybe, just maybe, things will be a little better if we all agree to stop buying the bullshit from both sides that say the other side is the antichrist.
But again, that'll never happen, so we're pretty much screwed.

QuoteWhat does this have to do with folks who would like to reform our two-headed, one party political system?
Your anti-Christian stand is becoming way too pervasive. Take a break, relax.
When a person, despite the overwhelming evidence, denies the obvious, I do not believe they are qualified to be a member of the senate, congress or to be president. If they can not get past the simple fact that the dinosaurs are not 5000 years old, how are they to be trusted on questions that are not so obvious, like Global warming.
Ron, this has nothing to do with religion, just science and reality.
Where do you meet these people? It must be part of the left coast lunatic fringe. I do not know anyone that expresses those views in my area.
Of course, Global Warming is just a liberal scare tactic to gain more government control. The earth warms and the earth cools. It is not a topic of conversation around here. When they learn how to control hurricanes maybe they can consider a more global weather picture.
Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.
It's even more disheartening when they win elections. Which they do. At least the ancient Romans used to give their drones bread and circuses; and that society's widespread bisexuality was freely acknowledged. Here, the drones are content with circuses alone, blissfully ignorant of how they're getting butt-fucked.
