And even more people, evangelicals and non-evangelicals are voting for Trump; not to mention other candidates. But the theme/topic was about ALL EVANGELICALS and NOBODY ELSE !

Good grief....look at the title!

And just WHO is to say that those evangelicals who aren't for Cruz, aren't taking their religion seriously...the author? WHY...because he says so ? LOL

True, but despite not mentioning other demographics, the premise is correct. If Evangelical protestants flock towards Cruz in the primaries, combined with support he wins from other Americans, he will be the nominee.

Likewise, if Cruz did well with Catholics, Orthodox Jews, Orthodox Christians, Mormons, secular voters, etc., but DIDN'T win over any Evangelicals, he would likely NOT be the nominee.

Based on Donald Trump's personality, record, and values, it is easy for anyone to conclude that a vote for him would not in line with evangelical Christianity. Trump is a nominal mainline protestant who attends church on Christmas and Easter and in no way held traditional moral values on the right to life or the sanctity of marriage until he had to claim it in order to run for President on the GOP side. I don't need the author to tell me this. I'm also aware that voting for the Ayatollah would not be in line with Catholic beliefs, a vote for Benjamin Nentenyahu would not be in line with Islamic values, and a vote for Jerry Falwell would not be in line with Buddhism.
