That's right, I will only support those that fit my narrow definition of a Christian. That's my right. I do not believe that the office of the President should be secular. It should be held by someone who has a great fear of God and a great faith in Christ.

And you are a hypocrite. You wouldn't for a moment vote for a Wiccan or a Satan worshipper would you? Would you vote for a Shiite or Sunni or Wahhabist muslim? How about a Druid? How about an Atheist? Do you think someones choice in religion speaks about their character? Do you think character matters?

I'm sure there are many other religions that you would draw a line at and not vote for.

A candidate claiming to be a Christian is not all that matters, they should exemplify someone who has tried to live a Christian life. Everyone must make a judgement whether or not that candidate has done so, at least enough so that they can be trusted to follow Christian values. I don't think either Clinton would fall into those categories for me.

Hypocrite. Conservatism needs people to stand on principle. Something that you obviously can't do, otherwise, you would only vote for a Christian for President, as well.

Sorry, I couldn’t resist posting the following (I hope you have a sense of humor)



> I do not believe that the office of the President should be secular. Well, we’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one, President <> Pope in my book.

>> And you are a hypocrite.

An ad homonym attack already?

>>You wouldn't for a moment vote for…

I would vote for the best person for the job regardless of his religion. This “Best Candidate” will not run the office like he was the Pope of the US, or the Ayatollah, or the Billy Grahm of the USA, but will run the government according to the constitution.

>>Hypocrite.

I am comfortable with my words being my judge on this.

>>Conservatism needs people to stand on principle. Principles yes, religion, no.

>>Something that you obviously can't do, otherwise, you would only vote for a Christian for President, as well. .

Interesting, didn’t this start with me taking umbrage that you didn’t think I was a Christian? So why would I only vote for a Christian if am not one (grin).

Because I don’t have the same religious bigotry you are displaying here, I am pushing for Fred Thompson to be the next POTUS, not Mitt Romney, you should be happy because Fred is a protestant, (I believe the Church of Christ in Tennessee is considered Christian by most) instead of voting myopically for Mitt the “man of my church” as most here assume my vote will be

I find it funny that you call me a hypocrite for doing what I say you should be doing and voting for the best man, not the man who most closely holds to my religion.

Have a nice day.
