Another study by Prof. Ryan Burge showing that attending church makes people vote more conservatively. Good stats in the article.

>>Another study by Prof. Ryan Burge showing that attending church makes people vote more conservatively.

With certain exceptions...

“The more frequently people attend the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and The Episcopal Church, the more liberal their politics become.”

I’ve always found it interesting that more times than not, democrats and atheism seem to go hand in hand.

To a Democrat, Government is their “God”.

Thanks for posting.

From the article: But overall, “atheists are the most politically engaged ‘religious’ category,” when compared to all Christians.

Like we've said on FR: leftism is its own religion.

It also helps explain why the neocons and Democrats in the State Department, etc, hate Putin. Putin declared Russia to be a Christian country. (I’m not implying the Putin is a Christian, just stating that he declared Russia to be a Christian country.)

Simpler than this - the label of ‘conservative’ is being redefined for those that hold “moral principles” and those that are labeled ‘liberal’ identify with “immoral” positions or principles.

Like all generalizations, there’s room for hypocrites and idiots.

More like religion over arches worldly politics but core values and common sense you get from it guide you away from communist insanity.

It explains why democrats are always attacking Christians.

One of the primary agendas of every communist government throughout history has been to destroy or minimize the influence of churches. That's because it's difficult to subjugate people that believe in God. Communism depends upon total allegiance to the state, a belief that the government will provide all your needs. People that believe in God will never accept that.

The more democrats go to church, the more they risk spontaneous combustion.

Regularly attending church services displaces social theories, such as critical race theory, with a belief that individuals bear the moral responsibility of their own actions, the analysis discovered.


There is a point to think about there. Something will fill the void.

And that is why the communist in America have been waging war on religion for over a 100 years.

Goats do tend to look like sheep from a distance, but get up close and you will see they still cling close to their godless ideologies- they want God on THEIR terms- they want to create a god in THEIR own image-

That doesn’t work!

Even if you were an aethist but practiced the most of the things the 10 commandments says you’d make this a better place.

Nah, God welcomes all if they sincerely repent and acknowledge HE is the one and only true living God.
