It is not possible to separate one’s faith from any aspect of his life, including his politics.
Thanks for posting the CS Lewis quote reaganaut. I wish I had come across it when I was writing the piece. It would have bolstered my conclusion.
As much as I care about politics, my politics is controlled by my faith in God through Christ. Whereas my faith in God is never affected by my belief in any political philosophy.
That being said, my faith tells me that I must support Godly men to be leaders so the people will not be led astray.
A nation sways in the wind, and depending upon the way the leader at the head sways, so to does the nation.
Like 99& of FReepers, I too am pro-life, but I know Romney was pro-choice.
Should the Republican party ever drop the pro-life stance I will cease to support it any longer. That being said, I am close to stopping now. Close, not ready.
Current leader speaks volumes of my point.
Thanks Alamo-Girl, for weighing in.
