Don’t misunderstand, I completely agree with you on the morality of abortion and homosexuality,

I am not talking in terms of morality in regards to these issues...I am talking in terms of these issues being an affront to a holy God.

What commonness does light have with darkness?

It is impossible for a Christian to be part of their endorsement and/or advancement...that includes voting for a candidate who endorses and/or advances homosexuality and abortion as normative and acceptable.

I don't understand the distinction. What's your definition of morality?

It is impossible for a Christian to be part of their endorsement and/or advancement...that includes voting for a candidate who endorses and/or advances homosexuality and abortion as normative and acceptable.

I just don't believe that Christ's purpose was political. I think our faith should drive our politics but politics is secondary to eternity.

In regards to being "devisive", what I mean is that I don't want it to be an issue when I'm witnessing to someone. If someone doesn't like conservatives for whatever reason then I don't want that to be an issue between them and their salvation.

I think naturally as someone grows as a Christian they will see that their views are more in line with conservatism.

You can replace any sin with homosexuality and abortion in your statement, those sins aren't greater then others. And you can be assured that your politician of choice likely has supported questionable things.

Now I certainly cannot support a candidate that supports abortion and I cannot understand how any Christian could support such a candidate, but I think it's going too far for any of us to say unequivocally that "It is impossible for a Christian to..." Is it possible for a Christian to make a mistake?

Would you say that not a single one of Guilliani's or Schwartzeneggar's supporters are Chrsitians?
