Many Christians share liberal values

This is in response to Monday’s article, “UF study shows religious left more active.” I am glad that someone has finally said something. I have been waiting to hear this for a long time. It is true that not all Christians are Republican. Many of the Christian students I know are conservative when it pertains to issues such as abortion and gay marriage but are as interested or more in historically liberal-leaning causes, such as better health care and education for this nation’s poor. One of the Ten Commandments is “Thou shall not kill.” I believe there are other ways to kill that are just as important as the abortion issue, ways that are completely ignored in the Republican arena.
