Evangelical Leaders Blame Liberals, Media for Aurora Shootings, Say Only Christian Victims Will Go to HeavenThe conservative Christian blame game kicked off Friday when Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX) attributed the shooting to atheism and attacks on Christians.

Republican Campaign Mantra:
We turned over a real mess to President Obama, he hasn't cleaned it up fast enough, so give us another chance to  create a depression.

It's pretty clear that the shooter didn't follow the teachings of Christianity.  If he did he wouldn't have done what he did.  Plain and simple.  So the overall message of these leaders is correct.

That said, the government shouldn't be forcing anyone into a life of faith but it's crystal clear that Christian religion in the USA is a net positive.  The vast majority of Christians are good people who do good things for their fellow man.  There is an occasional bad apple for sure but overall the USA is a better place because of Christianity.

In this particular case I don't think we know the religious background of the shooter yet so there is no reason to weigh-in from that perspective.

It is interesting that in typical fashion the left cannot see the lush green garden of Christianity in front of them because they are totally focused on a leaf with a brown spot.

So what you are saying kentay, is that you are ok with people blaming the GOP, but when the Christian start placing blame, then you complain???  How does that work?  why is it you are allowed to place blame on who you want, but when they decide to point fingers at your side you **** like a little kid?

What is the takeaway from this supposed to be?  Why should any of us care about the prattling of this Jerry Newcombe person?

Because you WBC,  and others like you in the Republican Party swallow this kind of rhetoric in the name of winning not what right by never speaking out. It's as if you have lost your ability to discern right and wrong in religious intolerance, hate and slander (Huma Abedin) because of a person's religion or color. Where have the  Statesmen/women in your party gone?    kentay

Again the Democrats are quick to blame the Republicans and the NRA.  Why are you ok with that blame, but not okay with the other?

First of all, kentay, kindly show me the evidence that I "swallow this kind of rhetoric".  My comment above makes it pretty clear that I don't.

Secondly, so far as Huma Abedin is concerned, are you saying that her parents' ties to the Muslim Brotherhood are IRRELEVANT??

Yes that is what I am saying. Your mostly white wealthy party is famous for guilt by association. But if anyone tries to reverse it your party whines and cries like a baby.  Does that mean that Romney Is guilty because of what his grandfather did or guilty because of what his church did to non white people? kentay

Why do you repeatedly inject race into every discussion?

In your 90%+ white party, you have managed to bring the most racist white people under one political party, in the last 50 years. While getting rid of moderates you now have only one black person in the total in both houses of congress. If this was the first time you have gotten down to just one black I might feel differently, but you been lacking in blacks Representation for at least 20 + years.  If I was a black person I would think you don't want people of my color in your mostly white party. kentay

Where is your statistical data for your numbers.  All I see right now is YET another Democrat playing the worn out race card.  It is getting old, and very pathetic

So long as you insist on injecting race into every discussion, why do you continue to make stuff up?  You may have backed off from your 98% while claim, but 11% other races doesn't allow 90+% white.  But what does any of that have to do with this Jerry Newcombe person's blathering, and what does his blathering have to do with anything else?
