Who cares? Political Parties aren't supposed to be monolithic, you have your single minded views, and they theirs. It's always the fringe extremes that go out of their way to make everyone miserable, just like they are.

Personally, I find it difficult to understand how the Democrat Party can still attract regular church goers.


Any church preaching and teaching the literal teaching of Jesus will absolutely NOT attract any person truly understanding and supporting the Marxist Dems ideology.

We frequently read about other churches that have false teachers and twist the teachings of Jesus. Paul teaches us about this:


quote:


According to 2 Thessalonians 2:11, God will send a "strong delusion" to those who refuse to love the truth and delight in wickedness, causing them to believe the lies of the Antichrist. This divine action is a final judgment for actively rejecting the gospel, allowing them to follow deception during the last days.The Context (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12): The passage states that before Christ returns, a "lawless one" (Antichrist) will appear, empowered by Satan to perform false signs, wonders, and wicked deception.Why the Delusion is Sent: The delusion is not sent to innocent people, but rather as a judicial act against those who refused the truth and took pleasure in unrighteousness.The "Lie" and the "Truth": Because they rejected the gospel, they are given over to believe the ultimate lie—likely that the Antichrist is a savior or god.Interpretation of "Send": Commentators often describe this as God withdrawing His restraint and allowing people to suffer the natural consequences of their own choices (a "self-delusion")

I tell you what. Go to a Democrat national convention, go onstage and pronounce that you are a Christian above all. Then do the same thing at the RNC. At one you will be booed. At the other, you will be cheered.


That’s why there should be a separation of church and state and politics should not be religious at all

That's a illogical statement. A persons morals naturally dictate a person's political alignment.
Where does a person gain their moral ideas???? Either from a religion/God or from a person's own subjective opinion about what is or is not moral!

I agree that a separation of church and state should exist, but "church" and politics are intermingled in the most fundamental way.

What are Christian values?

As neither a Christian nor Democrat, I observe folks in both groups and come to the conclusion that it’s all nonsense.

I don’t think anything could get me to associate with either groups. Too many charlatans.

Divorce rate in Protestant churches: 51%
In Catholic Churches: 19%

So… 1 in 3 Christian marriages end in divorce.

So many on this board come to preach and quote Scripture, but their own churches can’t keep their followers in line on simple teachings regarding marriage.

Maybe work on what’s going on in your own churches before telling people whether their politics align with Christian beliefs?

First of all you cannot remain deep in sin and be saved, that is made abundantly clear by Paul so that is factually incorrect nor can you set aside your faith simply because you have certain political viewpoints. This is the main issue with a lot American Christians, they no very little about the Bible and parrot nonsense about a “personal relationship” with Jesus.

You cannot support gender ideology, reliance on the government, and victim hood then profess to be a Christian. It’s nothing more than a waste of time and you might as well play golf on Sunday instead

I love Christian values.

Thank you.

I think I will now be a Christian and tell everyone about it.

I will never believe that a person who supports killing innocent children in the womb can be a Christian.

The same for grooming children into homosexuality. And there are a few others.

NOW: simply thinking that taxes can be higher so we can HELP MUH MINORITIEZ CHILLUNZ? Yeah, that person is dumb, but could definitely be a Christian.

Care for the Marginalized: A central pillar of Jesus' ministry was uplifting the poor, the sick, and the outcast. In movements like Christian Socialism, this translates to systemic advocacy for the vulnerable.

Wealth Redistribution and Stewardship: Jesus issued strong warnings against the corrupting nature of greed. He notably instructed the wealthy to sell their possessions and give to the poor, concepts often paralleled in modern calls for progressive taxation and robust social safety nets.

Radical Inclusivity and Equality: Jesus broke down the cultural, ethnic, and social barriers of his time by treating women, Samaritans, and tax collectors with equal dignity. This focus on social egalitarianism strongly resonates with modern liberal values.

Communal Living: Early Christian communities practiced shared resources and communal property, a system famously described in the Book of Acts.

Abortion is murder, which is against Christianity. If you don't want or cannot support a baby give it up for adoption.

that would be 33.3% if my math is correct which is greater than 19%

He wasn't teaching transgenderism in elementary school. He didn't support allowing teenagers to permanently damage their bodies (sex transition) because it's their choice. He didn't support gay parades with guys walking around in G Strings with their fat rear ends and genitalia hanging out. He didn't support same sex marriage That's not being liberal. That's being a good person.

LOL, how is this liberal ? Look at Pelosi, Walsh and don't forget Oprah. Do you think they listened ? Jesus talking about greed is for all. It's not mutually exclusive to either party.

Uh, no, it doesn't. Dems still trying to keep racism alive while conservatives have tried to move on for years championing equality for all.
