The poster you are responding to has said that Christianity is incompatible with democratic governance. The majority always goes with the crooks so Christians who don’t believe in being crooks are always losers - and always should be, because they “don’t have winner written on them”, according to his/her previous posts.

I think many of the people who are intent on labeling Moore a "bad candidate" actually didn't like him in the first place, and it is probably because of his explicitly Christian beliefs and acts. Obviously this wouldn't be appealing to the libertarian component of the party.

And I think the same probably holds true for a bunch of people who are very vocally anti-Moore here. Probably within the voting public too.

We are truly engaged in a war against any kind of moral standards, and especially Christianity. Even here on FR.

Yes, I think you are right about this. I really think most of the people who didn't like him, objected to his religion dominating his behavior.

See Post #85. You can check my posting history to verify that what I said there is true.

Moore Christianity has nothing to do with my assessment of him as a bad candidate. I would usually view that as a point in his favor, but recent history has shown us that so many of these unapologetic Christian candidates are completely unsuited for political campaigns in this country -- though not necessarily at every level of government. That's why they usually end up as third-tier candidates in presidential elections like Pat Buchanan and Rick Santorum.

Does anyone here think Mike Pence would have stood any chance of winning the presidential election in 2016?
