This is from the same site. I too am not a Christian. I am an American. I consider myself a true Agmostic. However, in the name of common sense, I realize that over 70% of this nation is Christian, and in the effort to create a political revolution we must join forces with those who have not been brainwashed into thinking Bush hears God talk to him in his head. I too share your concerns with religion, as does Rick Stanley, the origionator of this site. Before you dismiss this, please look into it a bit more thoroughly.
From the Site:
"STANLEY NOTE: Since I am the "originator" of this particular effort to unite
third parties, independents and non voters, let me assure you the reference
regarding "God given" has roots in the Declaration of Independence, as well as
the preambles of the state and national Constitutions. It certainly does not
intend on alienating or excluding atheists or agnostics. The First Amendment
of the Constitution says that we have a protected and guaranteed right to
freedom "of" religion, not freedom "from" religion. I would remind all that
defending those rights in the Constitution are the primary issues of this
Coalition. Defending "ALL of those enumerated rights" is the mission of this
Coalition.
I am a Christian. You may be whatever and whomever you wish. You may hate
religion. I hate religion myself. I believe in Jesus Christ. I do not like
what "religions" have done in his name. Any true Christian does as well.
"Some" entity created each of us. Even if you want to call it "Mother Nature"
or whatever, God is a term we can all at least "understand or relate" to.
Understanding and discussion will be the basis of this forum and Coalition.
Respect for another's views must be given even if disagreement takes place. I
have to admit, you have to admit, no one is 100 per cent right on everything.
Why can't the rest of you?
Your views and opinions will be aired here."
