Riddle me this: When did Christianity become solely owned by Conservatives?

I ask because of this:

Some in the media are complaining that Gabby Douglas is "so, so, so into Jesus." LIKE if you are tired of liberal attacks on Christians.

I am a Christian and I am a liberal. I am very proud of both!

2. I'm confused.

I know what you are saying is true about conservatives claiming exclusive rights to Christianity (and their twisted view of it), but I do not understand the context. How does the pic of Gabby Douglas or her religious outpourings translate into an attack on liberals?

Conservatives did not "lay claim" to Christianity.  Democrats relinquish their right to be called Christians when they put killing children ahead of all else.

Who is it that often portrays Christians as myopic, superstitious, and incapable of being educated? It isn't conservatives.

The buzzy one's back, after a long absence.

What's it been, like three years maybe?

Maybe because leftist principles don't coincide with Christianity. That's why Marx et. al. were so against it.

There's plenty of room left of center for Christian values. The problem is that the left has veered into uncharted radical waters.

The only thing democrats guard as closely as the right to kill infants is their devotion to sexual perversion.

Imagine their turmoil if some gay black guy came out against Abortion.
