There is a book out now that is titled, If Democrats are smart they would be Republicans. Only a Republican could come up with something like this. I look forward to reading this book even though I really consider myself more of a Conservative than a true Republican. However, I always vote Republican because the majority of beliefs are the same as mine. I say all this to come to my point. As a Conservative Christian I have to wonder how any proclaiming Christian could ever vote Democrat. Could you say its an oxy-moron to say the words evangelical democrat. dont get me wrong, there are some things I can agree with with the Democratic party. However, its theP difference in moral values between the two parties that make the difference for me. Not to get to far into this, because I could write all night about this, there are a couple of things that are so clear cut between the parties that I am amazed at how Christians could vote Democrat.
1. Pro-life. One clear belief of the Republican party is that every life matters. Conception is the beginning of life and that life is important.
2. Marriage is between one MAN and one WOMAN. Do I even need to go further.
Im not even going to get into the rest because it will just make me upset but look at these two beliefs and what each party thinks. Republicans as a whole believes in these two areas, and as a whole the Democratic party doesnt. What else needs be said.

Matt, you've asked the million dollar question. How can a Christian vote for a person that is against the very things they claim they believe in based on God's very Word?
Evangelical Democrate...that's funny Matt! Oxymoron is right and I'm guessing the emphasis is on the moron part of that word. Christians should never seperate their faith from their activities in life whether it's voting or what we choose to watch at the movie theatre. We should live our lives in complete daily devotion to Him and that means worshipping the Lord in how we do everything...even VOTE!
It sounds like we are on the same page today.
Do they call them the Religious Right because they are right?
