Ustwo, gotta call you on that one.
I am a member of the County Democratic Party here and so I meet a lot of liberals. I also knew a lot of Liberals in Portland, OR (they fester there!). Most every one of them is a God-fearing Christian, and even the non-religious types like myself don't hate religion. You'd be hard pressed to find a more liberal person than my wife, but I wouldn't tell her that she isn't a good Christian, she'd be tempted to go against her otherwise peaceful and Christ-like ways.
I've met a few people though that are totally anti-religion, that you could say hate religion. But of the five or six of them, only two are political, and one's a Republican, so go figure.
Ustwo, so based on that, I'd have to say that your statement is dead wrong, and represents the way in which so many people have allowed themselves to fall into completely false assumptions about Liberals on the basis of a few bad apples blown out of proportion by the right-wing spin machine.
