Letter: GOP Christians Are Hostile

I would like to know, just what definition Geddie Fredy gives to being “Christian?” According to the contents of Fredy’s letter, to be a Christian: Is to feel hostility toward those who don’t think as you do, believe as you do, or who may even disagree with you. That being the case, then the recent Kootenai Country Republican Party proposal to declare “Idaho a Christian State” was hardly out of love of one’s non-Christian neighbors. Instead it was out of open and active hostility toward anyone who isn’t a “Republican” version of Christian. Which begs the question, who gave you this authority to make that kind of judgment?/Joan Harman, Coeur d'Alene. More here.

Thoughts?
