Yup; I’m evangelical and, having been a seminary student and a P.K., I know hundreds of evangelicals extremely well. None that I know, except my niece, stayed home. All that I know, except my niece, voted for Romney. Niece didn’t like Romney; he wasn’t the perfect candidate. There’s an old saying that “’Perfect’ is the enemy of ‘good’.” Compared with Hussein, Romney was good enough.
Evangelicals need to understand the history of the Constitution and what most evangelicals believed in the 1700s. Probably the most influential Baptists in American history was John Leland, a colleague of James Madison. Leland was excited that the Constitution provided so much personal liberty for the citizenry, and so much religious freedom for Americans, that he was cool with the concept that a person of any faith, or an atheist, could be president. And it’s true. I’d vote for an atheist who’d be a strict Constitutionalist before a Baptist with an agenda to mess with our religious freedom.
These tight-ass whack jobs who’d rather have Hussein turn America into a Socialist or Muslim country than Romney need to be very ashamed of themselves. Piss on those who voted for Gary Johnson, or Goode, or whomever. I hope their kids look precious in burquas.
Correct....
Then BOW before my power!!!
If a handful of Flying Inmen can bring the vast MORMON Empire to it's knees; then you'd better FEAR us; mere mortal!
My original statement was “Likely, he would have been unhappy about a Catholic candidate as well”. This is based upon the pastor in question being an Obama-supporting Protestant.

But why say such a thing ???
What does that have to do with Willard ???
Willard is a Mormon...
Catholics and Protestants are Christians...
Christianity and Mormonism are 2 very different religions...
One has God who became man...
the other has men who become gods...
Willard hopes to get good enough to join his crew...
Yes, and it was true that IN THE PAST all denominations took part in demonizing other Christian denominations and Jews and expressed that in the form of burnings, the inquisition, witch trials etc. That is history but it should have nothing to do with how we protect our Constitutional rights from socialists who would demonize all of our separate beliefs. Put these religious prejudices among the Christian denominations aside and work to protect and defend the Constitution. Even if that means voting for a mormon or God forbid a pentacostal, a baptist or (GASP) a catholic.
You 'know' one thing and 'hope' for another; while TODAY 2,700 + will die.
What the hell are to talking about? Because you are a Christian you choose to not be wealthy. That is the most ignorant statement against Biiblical principles I have ever read.
If you are poor you can’t help others, that brother is the issue
Now get off your butt work hard get wealthy and help the least of these
Oh; sorry...
Ann, Ann, Ann...
Why have you not posted THIS?
I think you need tolook in a mirror to see who the religious bigot is since you didn’t vote for OBAMA because he’s a MUSLIM!!
You just wallow in your puerness and pat yourself on the back.

Just WOW
and yet youre mad at a few FReepers here because they wouldnt wallow in poop and pat the impure Willard on the back...
HMMmm...
I didn't know this.
The oath of office of the President of the United States is an oath or affirmation required by the United States Constitution before the President begins the execution of the office. The wording is specified in Article Two, Section One, Clause Eight:
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
People who stayed home are to blame. Not us.
If you’re so offended by Evangelicals, what are you doing on a site that is evangelical in nature? Trolling?
Free Republic is not a GOP website.
I just LOVE impressions!
I get the impression that certain folks don't like what I stand for and wish I would just shut up.
I wonder Christians that ARE in socailist/muslim countries already get blamed for?
“When he was governor of Massachusetts, his religion was a non-issue and many people didn’t even realize he was a Mormon.
HMMmm... I guess those voters must have LEARNED something since that time!”
What’s your point? Republicans lost to Joe-Joe-Joe Kennedy, the Marxists Liz Warren & BO, and a crook (John Tierney).
These results have no relation to Romney’s religion. He was considered too conservative by voters in Massachusetts.
WHAT!!!
Did they NOT elect him GOVERNOR??
Once?
“WHAT!!! Did they NOT elect him GOVERNOR?? Once?”
That’s old history. Deval Patrick (Obama’s mini me) has been governor for years.
