Christians are accused of pushing religion down peoples throats?

Question

and for the liberals (primarily) thats not ok, but then why is it ok for them to push their big government down ours?

Answer 1

I'm a "liberal" in a sense, and I never push anything down anyones throat.  Unless they push me.  

Not all religious people try to cram stuff down my throat.  

Plus, there are christian liberals you know.  

Answer 2

I hear this often but have never seen any religious people pushing anything down anyone's throat, regardless of the religion.  The whole thing is simply hog wash to marginalize a huge segment of the population..

Answer 3

I'm am not trying in any way to be obscene But in both nature and business  bigger is always better and more efficient because there are certain economies of scale involved that don't manifest themselves until a certain minimum size has been achieved.

Another good thing about big government is that it  can do the things that private industry is simply incapable of doing  

Lastly there are some cases where do to the negligence and abuses of capitalism ,government simply has to step in and write laws ,create agencies

and build the inevitable bureaucratic structures in order to protect  American citizens .

OSHA.The FDA,&The USDA are just a few of the examples of that reasoning.

Answer 4

We'll give up big government if you guys give up religion.

Deal?

Answer 5

The "Big Government" myth attributed to liberals is hard to reconcile with the fact that your christian-President Bush has created the largest bureaucracy US history.

Answer 6

Quite the contradiction isn't it.  I would say they try to push their secularism down everyone's throat, but in a much more sinister way.  At least with Christians (the very few of them that do it) you can see it coming a mile away.

Answer 7

When your religious bots stop showing up at my door every sunday morning trying to "save" me, I will stop promoting a government that wants to "save" you.
