The culture war is the decisive issue here.

This is an issue that gay activists and religious conservatives alike are eager to engage, though for different reasons. Is the only reason to oppose homo marriages a religious one? What about the gay culture of death, the reduced lifespans, the innocent victims, the rampant diseases, the mental problems? Homosexuality has been taboo throughout history, and in cultures that weren't Christian.

Americans with strong religious beliefs have faith in Republicans>/I>As the scriptures say, "He that trusts in man in under a curse."

It used to be that the Democrats were the domain of the religious.
Since they were the majority, that 'power' became a goal for evil. Evil has since moved in, taken over, and kicked out anyone that disagrees.
I pray that one day my fellow Americans who call themselves Democrats, will remove the evil that dominates the leaders of their party, and put DEMOCRACY back into the Democratic Party.
The REPUBLICANS need DEMOCRATS back. The whole idea was that the two party concepts would balance each other.
With the DEMOCRATS so far out in left field, their complaints (real issue complaints, not the crap we see now) about Republicans going off the right end of the bell curve are being ignored. In that sense, we all are on the losing end.
Save America! Get Rid of EVIL!
Want to help. Don't start at the top. (That is already being handled by President Bush. If you keep an eye out, you will notice he is quietly attacking corruption in politics. P.S. Don't tell anyone, it's a secret!)
START AT HOME. Work up from there. Start with yourself, and if successful, spread outward.
That is how we can free our country.

In the 2000 election, Bush swept more religiously observant voters by large percentages -- and, in the case of white evangelical Protestants, by a margin of more than five to one.In other words, to the extent that we can trust the definition of "white evangelical Protestants," 1/6 of us were totally clueless!
Of course, this doesn't count those who, for various reasons, stayed home. Whenever we lose, they and the clueless ones are the difference.

No religious person in his/her right mind would vote Democratic.

"Today 81 percent of Americans say that prayer is an important part of their daily lives, ...... But a more important finding may be that 51 percent completely agree that prayer is an important part of their daily lives "
So there are 30% of people who say that prayer IS an important part of their daily lives who do NOT completely agree that prayer IS an important part of their daily lives?!?
{scratches head} That just don't make no sense!!
I stopped reading after than nonsensical clash of statistics.

Is it that we have "strong faith" in Republicans, or rather absolutely NO faith in Democrats? And it does depend upon the definition of "we", "strong", and "faith" doesn't it?

All us religious conservatives love Bush. He is a righteous man. He is one of us. This a lovely lie. Do not try to disillusion us.
