It seems to me that God's signature would be the only one that really matters.......

There is no way that God would vote for Democrats unless we believe in a God that thinks it's okay for women to kill their unborn children.

God is a royalist.

Who cares what God thinks? Some federal judge will just overturn Him.

Why is it that Democrats feel as if they need to 'take back' things all the time?

If you need to take back, does that mean we are strong enough to take it away in the first place? Funny I don't remember jack-booted thugs led by Jerry Falwell marching into liberal 'churches' and demending that they practice Christianity his way.

What I see is that more conservative Christians retreated into a ghetto sometime back in the 1920's and then realized what a mistake that was 60 years later, as the libs and contry clubbers took over the reigns of the country. Even today a bunch of conservative Christians don't vote at all.

The Pew, Gallup and Barna surveys all report the same thing; that people who attend religious services on a regular basis vote overwhelmingly,Republican. God requires regular attendance at worship, ergo Republican.

It is very true that Almighty God is neither Republican or Democrat. To even suggest the idea of either is blasphemy. The God Who Created All is too big, mighty, holy, etc. for us to put into any box of our making.

Having said that, the values that appear in God's Holy Word, and the example set by His Son and Apostles, are much more conducive to Republican/Conservative values than Dem/Lib.

I am involved with Sojourners and got a request a while back to sign their petition. It struck me then as an effort on the part of the religious Left to counter Bush's inroads into the faith community. The problem is where to put abortion (and euthanasia, another favorite of the liberal Dems), and this is where they put it:
We believe that a consistent ethic of human life is a religious issue. Do the candidates' positions on abortion, capital punishment, euthanasia, weapons of mass destruction, HIV/AIDS-and other pandemics-and genocide around the world obey the biblical injunction to choose life?
In other words, unless a candidate opposes capital punishment and favors ever-greater funding for AIDS relief, the candidate is inconsistent on the life-issues and needn't be taken seriously as "pro-life." Interestingly, Pax Christi USA, the national Catholic peace group, has a nearly-identical petition framed with exactly the same goals in mind. It is available here.

Forgive me, but what's so interesting about this?

Sign our petition and send a message to America that God is not a Republican, or a Democrat

Is this not a stupid statement prima faice?

Which religious person has ever said anything so stupid?

It's actually the mentality of the Left: I will forgo everything that religion teaches and think in terms of CLASSES and GROUPS rather than have a PERSONAL relationship with G-d; but, since I still feel warm and fuzzy around Christmas or Hanukkah, I'll call myself relugious, too.

=the Religious Right does not speak for you. Remind America that Jesus taught us to be peacemakers, advocates for the poor, and defenders of justice.

Fine. Then let them name one instance when they spoke to uphold anything religious in this country. They are peacemakers? Why do they make peace only with those who hate America AND religion?

None of these words are credible. When you see action --- at least once standing up for truly religious Christians and Jews in this country --- maybe then their words will be interesting. As of right now, they are empty-sounding propaganda.
