I think this makes sense — in a good way. “I don’t read...” is the present tense.

As a strong “evangelical”, I took it to mean that perhaps he has created a solid foundation in Biblical principles in past years — perhaps since childhood. In which case, he wouldn’t have to read (present tense) the Bible each time he needs to make a decision. If solidly grounded in the Bible, then it’s part of who he is and “right thinking” would be natural.

I’m not a Kasich fan, but his statement cold be very benign.

Not a statement a Christian would make, even by slipping up.

Better read post #16 then on what he says on abortion.

Of course it's benign, but FR's cranks gotta crank about something.

I'm usually all for giving someone the benefit of the doubt, but he's been saying stupid things since he started his campaign...
