Hardly surprising. Conservatives tend to go through life in a permanent state of confusion.
It's sayign things liek this that reinforces the Reality that peopel tend to be tribalist, nd tend to see peopel of ricval Tribes not as simply diffeent, but somehwo inferior or Evil.
Conservatives, of coruse, arent really going through Life perpetually confused, you just rpefer this caricature as it invalidates them as people. -

That is, at best, a gross over simplification and, at worst, yet another shining example of the inadequacies of the public education system and the mass non-education/indoctrination it commits. The First Amendment was written to prevent a FEDERALLY Sponsored Church, not to completely separate politics and religion. In fact, many US states had state religions or required their citizens to be a member of a church. This ended around 1833 when Taxachussetts shut down their established church. The "wall of separation" was an invention pulled out of the butt of the lunatic Earl Warren; his penumbra of pabulum. But, pretending for a moment that anything he said made sense and jelled with a sane person's logic, there is no prohibition what so ever against a person mixing religion and politics. Members of the Church of Hypocritical Left Wing Frakking Nut Cases do it every time they vote.
House and Gibbs are my role models!!! -

and you can also put the blind followers of obama in there buddha. im sure you just forgot.
That's just stupid.
Why? He has a valid pointt. But I think you just want to bash Relgiion and use this as soem fault nly Relgiion has, when in Reality its a fault we ee in other areas. -

<sigh> Give a right-winger the slightest chance to show the world how ****ing stupid he is and he'll take it. Every single time.
There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it. -

In my experience most Science Fiction writers are not friendly to religion and vice versa. Science is based on questioning and investigation, religion on believing without evidence. Science & religion aren't always incompatible but in most cases are not good bedfellows.

Read more science fiction. Or study more religion. There are many religious scientists and I've seen science fiction which includes religion positively (Orson Scott Card, Firefly). But most science fiction just doesn't dwell on religion one way or the other unless its required for the story.

This post is bunk, base don a poor understandign of the topic. Mainly it relies on arguments famous Atheists ;ike Richard Dawkisn made, rather than on objective analyisis.
In my experience most Science Fiction writers are not friendly to religion and vice versa.
In y expeirnce, most peopel who are Hostiel to Relgiion, and see themselves as not Religious, are fooling themselves. They hve their own form fo Religion, they just don't cal it that.
I'd also like to pointout two things. Sience Fiction Writers aren't always Scientists, or even usually so, and the fact that most Sci Fi Writers aren't actually hostile to "Relgiion". Soem are, or were, but not all or most. Many "Religious people" also enjoy Sci Fi.
Science is based on questioning and investigation, religion on believing without evidence.
No, Religion is not based on beleif without evidence. If you think you can prove it is by sayign Relgiion is "based on Faith", and then define Faith as beleif withut evidnece, you prove my earlier point. Faith isn't beleif without vidence, its simply another word for Trust. Religion is not base don anything. Religion is a blanket term used to descibe ones beleifs about he nature and meangn fo our exitence, and doens't delve into how one arrives at said beleifs. One can eaisly base ones Religion on Sicntific INvwstigation.
Science & religion aren't always incompatible but in most cases are not good bedfellows.
his is sheer nonsense. The idea that Sicence and Relgiion have any problems at al only goes bakc to the 19th Cntiry, and has been debuned since he 1950's. -

Son, I hate to be the one to break this to you, but you're completely full of ****.

From what I have seen, the messages that Hollywood has to those of the Christian faith are based on their own misconceptions of what Christianity is in the first place. The only people who will buy into such messages are those who have never really understood what Christianity is. And sadly, most people don't. But that is partly because of the many misrepresentations of Christianity in our day by many who claim to be Christians.

The only real political bias i found on the show is the ever present anti-male screed. In every single episode its always the male who has some form of moral flaw or another, while the wife is always perfect and without faults. In The Choice, the one episode about females with super powers being chased by government agents they make it even look like there's a war going on against women and men. I've come to accept feminist propaganda in modern films but this series takes the cake.
