Honestly, whenever anyone writes about “Evangelical Christians should not support __X Candidate that the writer doesn’t support__” I tend to dismiss it completely as just a cheap, transparent attempt to use “religion” to tell me how I should vote.

from article:

“or his more serious attacks on Mexican immigrants”

Agree. The above distortion of what Trump said was as far as anyone needs to read to get a grasp of what this writer is about.

I tend to dismiss it as well. I want to know who is Michael Brown? What are his religious and political beliefs? Is he a liberal or conservative? What candidate does he support?

I’m voting for a commander in chief, not a pastor in chief and I thought we don’t have religious litmus tests in this country. Only God knows what’s in someone’s heart. If Trump, or others, don’t show shame or humility publicly, oh well. How many examples of this type of hypocrisy have we seen in past with religious leaders of all faiths? What’s their actions, especially when not seen, and do we know all their actions? Perhaps we should remove the tree trunk in our own eye first?

My problem with it is that he tells you for whom to NOT vote, but give no clue as to whom he believes is acceptable.

I agree totally, and don’t give a tinker’s damn about what Michael Brown has to say on any topic.
