Gosh, I have seen you post this SO many times. Maybe YOUR first criteria is religion, but it’s NOT that way for the majority of Republicans, nor the majority of Americans either. And, maybe these people don’t pass YOUR criteria for who is a Christian and who is not, but ultimately that is up to G-d — NOT FOR YOU TO DECIDE!

Frankly, Huckabee wearing his faith on his sleeve is a liability for the GOP in a general election, and a liability for our COUNTRY in the state the world is in right now. It is also a liability for all Christians if he turns out to be as two-faced as he seems...

I don’t think many here appreciate your take on these things, really. I know I don’t and I consider myself a Proud Christian! I could care less whether you consider me one or not. We are not selecting a leader of our church, we are selecting a leader for our country. The more you tout religion the more you fall into the stereotype of the MSM and the LEFT, and that doesn’t translate well to the rest of the world.

Why not support a true CONSERVATIVE on political issues and leave theology out of it?

Excellent post -- agree completely and bears repeating.

Ummm..., I sure can make that kind of determination for whether someone is a Christian or not, from what they say — when it is going to be my vote that I cast. And in this instance, when it comes to my vote, Thompson exhibits no concept of what a Christian is (cannot even get the “good news” right...).

So, for my vote — he’s not a Christian...

I’ll let God take care of the Heaven part — I’m only working on the next election.... LOL..
