In that case, either I have a reading comprehension problem or you can't express yourself without other people jumping into the wrong conclusion.

Some are. But not the majority. And what exactly is "fundamental" christian?

Fortunately I live in a secular society, so I tell them to take their moral considerations & practice them on themselves. I tell Christians the exact same thing. I tell both (and any others obsessed with metaphysical entities) to keep their moral considerations out of my life & the lives of anyone else who doesn't share their beliefs.
Good. At least you're fair.

I guess the American slang is lost on you. Unless that hit too close to home and you had to play some cute word game to look cool.

Conservatives practice real democracy. We don't like to use the government to tell people how to live.

That's odd. You're the Australian who started to criticize AMERICAN political scene and an AMERICAN president.

Playing word games again. You know what I'm refering to.

Quick, I'm disengaging from the debate because I can't back up my statements with logic and have to play word games. Then I have to belittle my critic because that makes me look smart.
