Hmmm... Interesting viewpoint. So, the only "good" Christians are those whose political beliefs are somewhere to the right of the US Democratic party. Which would exclude just about everyone in every other nation with a Christian majority.

Anyway, it is more interesting that one's Christianity can be adjudged "not good" based on political beliefs. Methinks you presume a bit too much.

Ever look into Mother Teresa's politics?

You make more of it than it was. I suppose that is for your own purposes of conscience or whatever.

"Political beliefs" are not necessarily applicable to Judeo/Christian/Biblical values. But they aren't necessarily not applicable either. You cannot believe that killing the unborn is okay and still be in line with scripture. You cannot believe that homosexuality is not immoral and still be congruent with the Bible. Things like that.

That's not to say that a Republican cannot take an immoral political stand, but if you read the party platforms, one holds to biblical values and one does not. That's just the facts on a purely platform basis.
