    Christians?

    As a Christian I am tired of having to apologize for these so-called "christians." If being a Christian means totally ignoring the messages of Jesus, then these people are Christians. Jesus clearly said and implied a separation between a State and a belief in Christ and salvation. Yet, these people pervert Christianity into some sort of mandate to create a religious state.

    Please stop calling these people who (ignore all of Jesus's teachings) "Christians." Call them fundamentalist Christians, if you must, because ultimately their religion is so different than Christianity that it falls into a aberrant category similar to Gnostic Christianity, New Age Christianity or Mormon Christianity.
