Do christians have to do what jesus said? Or do they simply have to accept that Jesus was the son of God and died to save their souls?

Christian charities give a lot to society and many Christians do live their lives that way

There are plenty. Christianity is nearly gone from Europe soon to be replaced by a more vigorous religion because there can be no vacuum

Are all RWNs Christians? Are all RWNs bad? I personally think all WNs are bad.

Evangelicals (AKA RWNs) aren't christians. They are a radical political party who use their screwy, cult of religion as a litmus test for membership.

Plenty of good christian people who live by the tenets of their faith for the most part and don't combine their religion with their politics anymore than anyone else does.

23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

John 14:23-24
New International Version (NIV)

If they love Jesus they will.

There are plenty of good Christians. But not the most vocal ones in America. The religious right is an affront to Jesus and if he were around today they would be the first ones he would throw out of the Temple.

RWN are more giving with their own money.

LWN are more giving with other people's money.

The vast majority of Christians are great people (all people for that matter).

Don't judge the majority by the rantings of the few.

There is no such thing as the religious left. Liberals don't mix their religion with their politics...if they do they aren't liberals, they are catholics. tongue

Church people in the south typically give between 10 to 20% of their income back to church. Not sure if that goes to charity though

Conversely LWN's are all for wealth redistribution but don't voluntarily send the government whatever is left over from their checkbook. Instead they demand that government use force to redistribute wealth as per leftist ideology. Then the LWN's have the gall to complain about the very corporatism and fascism that those same LWN's so fervently pursue.

It would be laughable if not for being blindingly schizophrenic.

What does it say when even someone like me without a solid grounding in Christian theology can tell how bad the religious right is at acting Christlike?
