More Limbaugh theology: "The religious left in this country hates and despises the God of Christianity and Catholicism"

Nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh claimed that "the religious left ... hates and despises the God of Christianity." Limbaugh has previously asserted that "The left is scared to death of God," "Liberals consider themselves more powerful than God," and that liberals are "soulless" because "souls come from God."

From the April 27 edition of The Rush Limbaugh Show:

LIMBAUGH: I would submit to you that people on the left are religious, too. Their God is just different. The left has a different God. There's a religious left in this country.

And, the religious left in this country hates and despises the God of Christianity and Catholicism and whatever else. They despise it because they fear it, because it's a threat, because that God has moral absolutes. That God has right and wrong, that God doesn't deal in nuance, that God doesn't deal in gray area, that God says, "This is right and that is wrong."
