This is probably the dumbest argument that’s made in elections.

Do you have some sort of Faith-O-Meter that can read minds and hearts?

No. Nor do I think it's at all necessary. I can read what people write, hear what they say, watch what they do. If someone contradicts the Law of God by any/all of these, and hasn't shown sincere, visible repentance for them (aside from political, election-time opportunism), then it's reasonable to conclude that they still hold to those false views. Yes?

You give us the editorial conclusion but not the reasoning.

Do you think it unreasonable that people who care more about God and Faith than some other folks should ignore God and Faith when they vote? Or can they set some standards for candidates who seek their votes?

Would you vote for a candidate who offers open borders to any and all Syrians? Who would refuse to close the Southern Border? Who would indicate disinterest in the economic disaster that is our country? Neither would I.

Why can't pro-lifers and other social conservatives require the candidates seeking their votes to convince them as to their bona fides on social issues? I demand that too. How about you?
