In other words he is not "pimping" Jesus to get votes. Are you suggesting that not going to church means you are no longer a Christan? Going to church is important, however it does not single-handedly define our faith. Some people need communion more than others.
Yes, well... Y'all go try and explain all that to them Huckleberry Christians. That is the stuff they look for, and rightly so, as it is the only externally evident means of judging a candidate's faith. Especially so in the face of all the lies and packaging that we call elections.
I also think that your term "Pimping Jesus" is an unfortunate and offensive thing. So any candidate who goes to church, and who's faith shows in his campaign words and deeds is "pimping Jesus"? What an absurd generalization.
And church folks will tell you that everyone needs the fellowship found at the church, and they would be telling you the truth. It is "fellowship" btw, communion is a different matter.
