Doubt it - he still writes god with a capital G, likely meaning that he implicitly respects and/or acknowledges that deity. Most people who see it as an abstract concept won't capitalize...
Alas, it seems the only question the OP is asking how you can expect any logical voting from people who base their lives on an illogical set of alleged events that bear no proof in science as we understand it.
I may have misunderstood this does happen
Seems science can't prove God doesn't exist, most certainly not from lack of trying.
I Guess the same could be asked, "how can a person vote for a person of no faith."
What gets me is that the OP puts all Christians in the same boat, as if we're all bible thumping superstitious fundamentalists. Like all world religions, Christianity has many, many facets, and anyone who thinks otherwise is simply ignorant.
I guess this is what got me.......I think as long as a leader has respect for all religions voting a non-believer in would work. The only thing I've yet to find a person who doesn't believe in God have "respect" for those who do.
You can built a shrine to god, light candles for him, built entire edifices in his honor, spent hours upon hours talking "with" him - and it is all seen as logical, normal, and healthy.
Substitute "god" with another invisible being named "Bob," do the exact same things, and you are considered an absolute lunatic in need of psychiatric help. Go figure.
Where in the Bible does it state the Earth is 6,000 years old?
Please explain how fundamentalists have forsake reasonable and logical thought?
The earth being 6,000 years old seems reasonable and logical to you?
Dinosaurs and humans roamed the earth together?
Evolution is just a theory?
You can't make matter out of nothing and nothing always existed. Except god - now we don't care where he came from or who made him.

He didn't say that it wouldn't be logical to elect a believer to a public office.

Many of us used to believe in God. You realize that, right?
I believe that some of the anti-religion comments can go too far and I certainly don't agree with the vehemently anti-religious. Most of us have respect for those who do believe in God.
correction..THumpers believe Earth 6000 years old..typo
to a child, and that the Invisible sky God had his son take the form of flesh...well what are these chances that these folks will ever vote for a candidate in a logical, pragmatic manner?
lol.
How dumb does one have to be to not know how to correct a typo in their thread title? And you call that kind of person intellectual?

You need to get out more. C-D is certainly not a good representation of any decent and/or respectful person. This forum is only used to push extreme viewpoints and incite others - not to be respectful of others.
