i would think that the only time anyone who identifies as christian would maybe feel alienated here would follow from a post or series of them that intertwine political and religious views in a way that to criticize the one is to criticize the other.
pastor tim's post to the danish cartoon thread was potentially one such moment--i wrote something that i deleted because i figured that the presentation of a political argument could only be construed as an attack on his religious committments--that because the views were tied directly to his position as preacher and there was no way to split the two apart. it seemed to me a situational thing, not systemic.
