Please don't flood my feed with posts and rants espousing hatred for those opposed to you politically, and then in the next breath try and tell me what a great Christian you are.
I think you've forgotten the whole "Love thy neighbor, love thy enemy....just try loving people period" aspect of the Christian faith. Loving the action of calling them names doesn't count, sorry.
If you love your political battles, and love hating your political opponents more than you love your neighbors, countrymen, etc...then you really, really, really need to spend some time with Jesus and the Gospels. Because you're kinda missing out on the whole point.
(And this goes for folks on both sides of the political extreme. These political tantrums look childish... Our elected officials need to grow up, and so do some of their constituents.)
So if all you want to do is preach hatred of those who disagree with you, then don't take offense if I hide your feed. I don't have the time, or inclination, to indulge in your worldly, un-Christian hatred of others. We can disagree with people without getting nasty, and I am seeing way too much nastiness on my feed from people that say they love Christ. That either means you don't love Christ, and you're just pretending, or that you have a vague fondness for Him, but not a strong enough love to actually do what He says. Which is....love thy neighbor. Even if they vote differently than you do.
