Biden campaign faith director talks Christian beliefs outreach to evangelicals

Christian Post
I wonder how this guy reconciles abortion, pedophilia, Islamic extremism and atheism with his Christian faith? I wonder if he's even made the effort?
quote:
The newly appointed head of faith outreach for former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign is working on getting evangelicals to support the Democratic nominee
quote:
Dickson initially self-identified as a Republican. In 2004, the first presidential election he voted in, Dickson said he supported incumbent George W. Bush.
Yet, it was amid his time teaching in Chicago that Dickson leaned more "toward working to loosen the chains of injustice” and “tearing down the walls of oppression."
quote:
Dickson was also inspired to change his political affiliation after reading then Sen. Barack Obama’s bestselling book, The Audacity of Hope.
quote:
By 2008, Dickson said he was “finally confident to call myself a Democrat,” citing among other reasons the party's “preferential treatment of the poor” and “emphasis on caring for the poor and vulnerable.”
quote:
Dickson believes that Biden, a practicing Catholic, is “an authentic man of faith whose faith and values inform his political participation, his long history of fighting for civil rights and fighting for the least of these.”
quote:
When asked by CP about concerns over Biden’s stance on abortion, religious liberty, and similar issues, Dickson responded that “there’s room for disagreement” on these matters.
quote:
I see the values that Joe Biden lives by. I see the values that have been reflected in the history of his involvement in public life. And I see the ways in which he's going to lean into this moment right now where our country is hurting

people can call me a single issue voter or LIV till their blue in the face. i'll never agree with the room for disagreement to the point of voting for somebody so flippant about it.
Honestly, people like Nancy or Biden piss me off more than an atheist's views on it. Joe and Nancy have both said they know it's wrong, but they'll vote for the party when it conflicts with their religion.
just so i'm not being one sided, i think republicans are wrong about the death penalty from a Christian perspective as well.

This is false.

I used to mostly believe this until I studied it extensively. I think as applied and executed, if you will, there are certainly issues. But in principle it is Biblical, including NT.

A practicing Catholic that doesn't follow fundamental Catholic belief. How interesting.

Excellent point but remember that's just his 'day job'. Privately, he has stated opposition to abortion... LMAO ...
Makes it even worse if you ask me.

Ask him if he will put Christian back on military installations.

Christmas Catholics. These people infuriate the shite out of me.

News for you .... if you are a Catholic and believe Biden should not be refused Communion, you are not a Catholic yourself.

The benchmark tenet for an obedient follower of Christ is Pro Life and strict anti abortion. If someone says they're a Christian but they're an advocate for "women's reproductive rights" or they're neutral on abortion....they're not a Christian period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
