How Democrats Feel About Religion
A trip to democratunderground gives us a sample of how democrats feel about those who believe in God. Here is a typical response
I've always thought a lot of religious people were deeply insecure about the existence of non-believers because it reminds them of their deeply repressed thoughts that what they believe is completely ridiculous and illogical. Because the majority of the country falls into Magical Thinking, it's usually easy for them to ignore these nagging doubts. When a reminder pops up that not everyone concurs, they get angry and insecure.
I had a boss once who was actually very intelligent and educated. His wife decided to suddenly embrace fundamental Christianity. There was tension in the marriage before he decided to fall in line. His insecurity about believing that "the Earth is 4,000 years old" was palpable. He KNEW deep down that it was all a load of crap, but that only spurred him to spew the Magical Thinking more vehemently.
There are a few who try to stick up for those with devout beliefs but it's not long before they themselves are ridiculed. You can read the rest here but I must caution you, much vulgar language in many comments.

There will come a day of reckoning when all will stand before the Lord and that is the day everyone will answer for their life here on earth. If you are a Christian it is nothing to be ashamed of, it is a good way, the right way of life, try it and see. Jane
There are those who think they are Christians but their behavior proves otherwise.
God help us all if ever our country is led by atheist or agnostic politicians. Our very foundation was built on Christianity. Our forefathers would turn over in their graves if they knew the state of today's world.
