How many blacks identify as evangelicals?

Not sure. I know 14% of Latinos identify as Evangelicals, per Pew Forum. And going into the election, they were more pro-Obama 50-39%...But compared to Latino Catholics, who were pro-Obama 73-19%, that was less problematic.

The 6 mil cited only covers white Evangelicals.

“why aren’t there headlines about the 14.5 million Catholics who voted for Obama? Or the 20 million non-Evangelical Protestants who voted for Obama?”

That would do away with one of the left’s best put-down accusations of the Republican party and why we lost - we’re “too Christian.”

I know this because I saw the fanatical SoCon elements come out in support of Santuckabee Huckatorum during the ‘08 and ‘12 primaries—neither of whom profess much in the way of fiscal conservatism, but SoCons were fervent to vote for them in droves. To a point that derailed the nomination process away from getting a more sound conservative leader… and we got saddled with turds like McCain and Romney.

Not trolling. I’ve been here too many years for that.

Magic christians spiritual principles never have run too deep. They usually flock to someplace where they are easily forgiven to assuage their guilt and has a good band.

Well good for you, since you took the bait.

Perfect Pee Wee Herman answer.

I don’t know what “window-licker” is.

As expected.

No Annie, you are sick.
Name one mormon hate post on any FR thread going back to the beginning.
Stop being a jack ass, and prove your claim with facts or shut the hell up.

By modern standards, Democrat or otherwise, we so called “Mormon haters (who Ironical don’t hate Mormons or we would let them of to the fate) are indeed sick. We should be locked up in gulags.

Back when God mattered, the Constitution ruled the land truth had value and reason was a virtue and standing for Christ was championed by all, we were the norm.

Progress is great ain’t it...

And I voted for Mitt so...

Why don't you direct your anger and outrage else where. I voted Romney unlike some “evangelicals” who trot around on FR wearing conservative badge and bash non-white, non-Christians likes me at every opportunity. Guess what? Now we all know what kind voted Obama. So save your breath. I don't give a sh*t about what you have to say.

Just like picachu you gotta' get 'em all!

Plenty of people on this board love to trash Catholics, even the ones who vote Republican - Conservative.

“...bash non-white, non-Christians likes me at every opportunity...”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

We knew you were anti-Christian. By your comparison of Christians to muslims. But we didn’t know you were non-white.

That changes everything. So. Go ahead and play your Race Card. Whatever race you are. You feel entitled? Go ahead.

And in addition to your Eff Jesus! mentality, go ahead and say it. Say it Loud:

Eff Whitey!
