Subjekt: Re:Many "Christian" princples are followed by people like you. Obeying the government is a Christian principle.
Artful Dodger: I think you'll find that the idea of obeying your government is much, MUCH older than Christianity.
"Being a good citizen is a Christian principle. So is honesty."
Sorry, but so it is in most (except cults like Scientology) religions.
"Forcing your religion on others is one thing. "
Like with Gay Marriage rights and Abortion. How certain Christian bodies go about saying they can make gay people straight, and using their anti gay feelings to cloud laws such as Gays being in the US armed forces.
... Because the Bible says being Gay is wrong.. even though the context (rape, temple sex, etc) is different and therefore a false statement.
