Cristian Coalition: Yes to guns, so-so on beer

http://www.propeller.com/viewstory/2008/03/06/christian-coalition-supports-guns-in-churches-bill/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ajc.com%2Fmetro%2Fcontent%2Fshared-blogs%2Fajc%2Fpoliticalinsider%2Fentries%%2F03%2F05%2Fchristian_coalition_supports_g.html&frame=true

The Christian Coalition supports H.B. 89, the gun bill that would expand the places where you can carry concealed. Churches, for instance….At the same time, Beck has declared his group?s neutrality on S.B. 454, the measure to permit the Sunday sales of beer and such at a new Braves minor league stadium in Gwinnett County.

OK Obvious jokes about God not protecting churches aside, what really irks me is that the religious group thinks it has a SAY over beer at baseball games. It’s Neutral. Big whoop. How DARE some Christian group even have an opinion about what happens outside their church, at a public event? SURE they can have opinions on whether there can be concealed weapons in their churches. But baseball??? Butt out!PS. Blue Laws are ANOTHER Separation of Church and State issue!

    Two things Ron, congratulations for your quote-mining and using them entirely out of context.

    Then, New Orleans is an exceptional situation and it is absurd to try to make a general rule from that. NO after Katrina is hardly typical of American towns.

    But what do you expect from the uber-wingnuts at National Review? And John Lott is one of the worst of the lot.

    Silly me. And all this time I thought it was in order to maintain a well regulated militia.

    Damn, when I was a church-going person the thought of people having conceeled weapons in there would have made me a bit queezy. However, it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that it happened from time to time without my knowledge. I come from a bit of a redneck area after all . . .

    I do not put my stamp of approval on guns. My horse was shot on accident
    and I’ve never gotten over it. I hate guns.
