Minneapolis is full of liberal hipster Evangelical Christians. My perception of the group has been warped quite a bit, since before I simply only thought of Southern Baptists. Now I'm seeing how Franken could've won a quarter and Obama could've won 35% of white Evangelical Christians in Minnesota.

55% of "Other Christians" identify as Democratic or Lean Democratic, as opposed to only 25% being Republican or Lean Republican. I wonder if these hipster nondemonational church members identify as that instead of Evangelical or Mainline.

Hipsters are a small youth subculture. Try again.

Not that small. Juno grossed over $100 million and that movie was basically aimed exactly at hipsters and "scene" people.

Another reason that makes Oklahoma such a great wretched and wonderful horrible state.  We are one of three states to have a plurality of Evangelical Protestants.

Anyone else want to theorize on who "Other Christians" are and why they are basically as liberal as those Unaffiliated?

The rhetoric you use (Your laughable description of why you are pro-choice comes to mind, which was laughed at here by even other non-religious pro-choicers) isn't exactly going to be much of  a help in moderating religion.

It's a message board. You don't need to have someone's permission before giving opinions.

The Einzige drama is hilarious, but it's distracting from what had been an interesting thread.

I also love how he basically proved exactly what I was saying about him to be correct.

Or put what Alcon said in a more simple sense, this is not the best way to get your point across or win anyone to your side:

Anti-Christian. Whatever is en vogue with the great mass of Christian scum I will oppose, and whoever opposes them is my ally. If they become economically populist, I will be as fiscally conservative as a hawk; if they stand against gay marriage, I shall stand with the gays. Christians are degenerate psychological weaklings and must be opposed on all fronts, on all issues, whatever side of the issue they come down on.

EDIT: Also, and as a corollary to the above, anti-Southern. Let the scum-suckers learn to toot the Deutschlandlied, because they'd not be singing Dixie if I had my way with it.
