Note: This is another religion topic, yes. But it's not an attack on religion.

This guy, Jay Bakker, pointed out the exact reason why I was turned off by religion in the first place:

[quote]While the current state of Christianity might seem normal and business-as-usual to some, most see through the judgment and hypocrisy that has permeated the church for so long. People witness this and say to themselves, "Why would I want to be a part of that?" They are turned off by Christians and eventually, to Christianity altogether.[/quote]

But most of all I love how they pose this question:

[quote]Why are Christians supporting laws that force others to live by their standards?[/quote]

But sometimes I wonder if it's too late. These guys follow the 'live and let live' ideology. Though they probably have differing views on such issues (either differing from their religion or differing from popular opinion), they don't seek to force their views on others. A ideology long lost on a lot of the US's religious (Christian and otherwise... *looks at Tom*)

And they're obviously out there trying to spread the word alongside this ideology. The mentality that you can't force people to be just like you.

So can these guys, along with other like-minded people from all faiths (Christians, Jews, Muslims, Scientologists), charge the attitude of mainstream religion?
