This website is hilarious! Very well done.
A satirical look at Christian culture and the stuff white Christians like: from casual church attire to coffee-themed ministries.

I am posting this here on Abraham Calvin's "Blog Detail" page and have posted it on the RLCC's "Blog Detail" page:
Abraham Calvin,
You posted a review of the RLCC site http://www.blogcatalog.com/blogs/real-liberal-christian-church-christian-commons.html#comment_648946
Your review as follows couldn't be more off:
"Quick question - throughout history, when governments grow in size and scope, do they become more or less Godly? Compare the leftist regimes of Stalin and Hitler to the U.S.
"What's wrong with private giving? Why must all help for the poor come from inefficient government bureaucracies funded by compulsory taxation? Voting for higher taxes for your neighbor is not the same as giving. Why do we want to replace the church's role in caring for the poor with big, oppressive government? High taxes results in slow economic growth, which hurts everyone, including the poor."
Since you posed a question(s), I feel at liberty to reciprocate on your "Blog Detail" page. Unlike you, I will refrain from giving you a one-star rating. [I'll be as neutral as BlogCatalog allows for the time being.] Although at this point, I take your rating as a badge of honor. People know me by those who hate me and rate me at the bottom without cause and based upon false witnessing.
I am opposed to taxes. I am opposed to regimes such as was Stalin's and Hitler's. I don't define all the terms you've used the same way you do, but you have totally missed the thrust of the RLCC and Christian Commons Project. I believe you have either jumped to sweeping, incorrect conclusions based upon the most cursory (if that) overview of the RLCC site or you've done a hit job. I hope it is the former.
Regardless, you need to dig much deeper on the RLCC site before coming to conclusions that fit any other ideology in the world. If you read the site correctly, you will come to the proper conclusion that right now, it is singularly unique and not "leftist" or "rightist."
In addition, economic growth needs to be good. Growth is not inherently good. Only good growth is, well, good.
I am very glad that you are not in charge.
Nevertheless, bless those who persecute you,
Tom
