Watch out!

Ok, I am still on a roll. You know what? When did Mormon bashing suddenly become acceptable political discourse. We're used to it somewhat but I have about come to a breaking point. Wasn't a central foundation of this country that we are free to exercise our own religion? Is that out of vogue in 2008? I am so tired of my religion (yes, it's a religion) being thrown around like it's a huge liability. Well, if practicing a Christ-centered, family central, love your neighbor(albeit not perfectly) religion is a liability in this "conservative" party, then you better be careful what you wish for. There are a lot of LDS Republicans and they are pretty good at turning the other cheek and getting on with their lives but I will tell you one thing, it's getting OLD! We sure aren't perfect but for crying out loud, who are we hurting? The sad thing is a lot of the criticism is coming from evangelical Christians with whom (ironically) we share so many of the same values. It makes me sad and disappointed in my party.
