IMO, they are voting color, not conscience.

No, they are voting that way because they are liberals and have a blindness to the truth and righteousness of God.

If they were voting color, then Alan Keyes would be who they would back. He's the most Godly of all the candidates, the most conservative of all the candidates, the only candidate that understands that Americas move to the left is due to her sin and that America must revive itself by repentance, ie abortion, gay marriage, kicking God out of the puplic square, etc.,

So since Keyes is black and they are not backing him, it must be because these churches that were interviewed are anti-truth thus in reality anti-God, anti-conservative, anti-revival, and anti-righteousness.

Leave it to the NYT to find the ONLY evangelical supporting Obama. LOL. I don’t know one practicing Christian who’s voting for Barry.

I agree. That's what we are talking about - liberals. They don't know TRUTH because of blindness. They put their faith in 'man' for direction. They are told it's time for a black president, it's time for change - so they blindly submit.

it must be because these churches that were interviewed are anti-truth thus in reality anti-God, anti-conservative, anti-revival, and anti-righteousness.

Alan Keyes made them look at themselves - they can't handle accountability since they believe their problems are because of someone else. No matter what the color, liberals want to be taken care of - they are weak. We get our strength from The Lord.

Liberal thinking sears the conscience of Truth. Therefore, they believe lies. Satan is the father of lies. It's all about Truth vs. Evil. Light vs. darkness/blindness. If the consequence for choosing to believe lies only effect this life here, it wouldn't be so critical but they are too blind to see - they are choosing their own home for eternity. God will not be mocked.

“If you see abortion as equal to anti-abortion, that is your right, as skewed as it is.”

That’s not what was being said in the least. The point is both misuse the Bible for their own purposes - NARAL with regards to the abortion issue and Big govt evangelicals with regards to govt spending and power. One needs to reread the part about “thou shall not kill: and the other needs to see the part about “thou shall not steal.”

I don’t know who the big gov evangelicals are. I’m sure there are some out there, but the ones I know are all small government types.
