Oh, both parties are constantly spewing in God we Trust, God bless America, yadda, yadda de yadda. Religion in the White House is solely based on verbal imitation by those trying to grab a seat in it for the most part. They aren't really a threat and aren't really followers of any Christ-like being. They just realize who their voter bases are.

I shudder to think what Pence would be like as president though if indeed the left boots Trump out of office somehow. I often wonder if they've thought that through. You can tell by the look in his eye he's one of those delusional dudes who talk to Jesus about America nightly. I am afraid of that. lol

Omg, some Christians can be so conceded. Judges of the world eh? lmao. See, that's why these are scary people. A God in the sky said we are the judges of this world John, well isn't that awesome Tom. lol

To me, Trump is saving us from these people with his third wifey, and his foul mouth. Thanks be to the heathen we have as president!!

So this matters greatly.
It certainly does. I've no interest in any theocracy of any kind. But, VP Pence, certainly would be.

Unfortunately most evangelicals could care less about that specific "Christian value." What they want is to enforce certain laws in Leviticus (while ignoring others) as well as to control everyone's vices.

I'd love to come to your house on Halloween dressed like a preacher or the pope...

You are as bad with Christianity as Bubbas are with muslims...

How many threads bashing Christians/Christianity do you have?

Naturally the left will want to deny the other religions what they have decided is their prerogative. They seek total control over the lives of others. Individuals control over their lives is not to be tolerated.
Wow last week it was "science" now it is politics, you guys should get your stories straight.

Sounds pretty scary. That guy wishes America would become like the Handmaid's Tale in real life.

You're comment is actually hilarious. Not sure where your getting your misguided information but the religious right is far from being in decline. Church growth among non-denominational Christians is at an all time high. While some of the old main stream Protestant denominations are in the non-denominationalists are experiencing a surge in growth across the United States. I'm intimately familiar with a church that held its first service in a garage in Edmond, Oklahoma 21 years ago. Without any outside help they've now grown to 39 locations in 8 different states. Christianity is far from dead in the United States.
