“Someone who doesn’t favor his faith above that of others.”

I am no Huckabee fan, but statement is pretty ridiculous.

Faith requires one to place a particular religious thought above another.

“Faith requires one to place a particular religious thought above another.”

ONLY for themself. Faith should not require the faith of others. This is a sign of insecurity in your faith.

Let me clarify. I will not vote for a man who places his faith above others in connection with the state.

Reportedly, Governor Huckabee pardoned criminals once they professed a belief in Christ. He felt that their soul had been cleansed. I believe that is a wrong standard for a governor to make. What if the man had professed he believed that Allah was the one and only true God, yet denied Christ as the Son of God?

I don’t want someone to discriminate based on religious beliefs via the government. Huckabee might not think that he does that, but he certainly shows evidence of favortism towards members of his faith.

That’s not right.
