OK, it's not JUST Christians, but my subject line's long enough as it is....
I just signed their petition, because they're people of faith who are SICK of the hatemongering and calls to violence from people like Beck, the Tea Baggers, etc.
They'll even give you a free bumper sticker to spread the word.
From their site:
I just joined Faithful America’s “Driven By Faith, Not By Fear” campaign to stand up to the fear and hate in our political debates and restore respect and civility in our country.

That’s why I’m taking a stand for my values and against, fear, hate, distortions and violence this summer by joining Faithful America’s “Driven By Faith, Not By Fear” campaign.
Will you join me? Add your name now.
Faithful America is also offering a great way to spread this message of peace and respect – they’re sending anyone who signs their pledge a free “Driven By Faith, Not By Fear” bumper sticker!
Thanks for your help in restoring unity and civility to our political process.
According to their site, their goals are to:
* end poverty and promote economic security for all
* promote peace and restore America's commitment to human rights and diplomacy
* prevent the catastrophic effects of climate change
* counter hate speech and misinformation in the media pertaining to people of faith
* work for welcoming communities where immigrants and people of all faiths are welcome
All I can say is...FINALLY! People of faith who actually act like it! :)
