Last week when I wrote my email I was emotional. I was upset about things happening. I called on people as Christians and Conservatives to start speaking out.
Using the phrase Christian was seen by some as excluding others, ie Jewish people, or people who are not particularly religious. It is never my intent to upset or exclude anyone. Yes, I am a Christian, and that admittedly influences how I see the world. When I called on Christians to start standing up and speaking out it was meant more as a call of people of Faith. I am a Lutheran. I have been ostracized for not worshiping the same way as other denominations. In the future I will talk about my Christianity again. It's a given, because it is part of my life, but I will try to keep in mind that everyone that follows me does not express their faith in the same way. I am happy to have people of all walks of life follow me. We are all different and that is what makes our country, and this community in particular so special. I also want to thank the people who wrote to me and expressed their feelings. Talking to each other when we have issues is so important. We can not make changes if we are not able to have a dialogue with people.
