By deciding to vote for Trump, how are they choosing the world over their faith? Do they not have the right to 'follow the laws of the land' and vote?
Your right it is hard to be a Christian. Standing up for issues like prison reform and mandatory sentencing for people in jail and their families is hard. Yet, Jesus told his followr. to visit the prisoners. Being against capital punishment because your Lord and Saviour was the ultimate victim and example of an innocent person executed by the state to satisfy and angry unforgiving constituency. Jesus had a message of expanding your idea of what your neighbor was. The Republican party is more like the Pharisee then the good samaritan and we know who Jesus favored in that parable. God bless time to get ready for Church.

Before the pill came on the scene, people were able to limit their family size by what seems now to be very rudimentary methods. I guess they were simply more responsible? Hillary supports partial birth abortion, pulling the baby up until natural birth, including just before natural birth, into the birth canal and stabbing the baby to death. Abortion stops a beating heart and it is murder and even ignoring all of the other crimes and sins of Hillary Clinton, no one with a true association with God could support her. God gave people "free will" but is specific about the consequences of making the wrong choices.

Condoning lying and cheating is not, or should not, be something a Christian can do.

Hillary wants abortion clinics in poor neighborhoods to eliminate poverty. I read on that and it will not eliminate poverty but is useful in eugenics, eliminating "super predators" and those in black hoodies that make rich white women nervous. Abortion, Population Control Not a Method to Reduce Poverty | LifeNews.com

Trump wants to bring jobs in order to eliminate the poverty that some are forced to live in. Jobs are known to reduce poverty.

Hillary wants to eliminate the poor by aborting them and Trump wants to get them a job. Gee, I can't believe that only Christians would see a reason there to vote for Trump.

Again, the issues are: the economy, jobs, security and healthcare. Trump is going in the right direction on those thus his support across all demographics. This trying to "divide and conquer" by the Democrats has gotten really old and people have become wise.
Im a NYer like Trump he hasnt brought jobs to the inner cith ever. But he has brought in seizure of poor peoples homes bybadvocating for imminent domain. While the promise of jobs is great, the reality of poverty when jobs are unavailabe is real too. Democrats support workers compensation, unemployment insurance, social security disabality and survivors, auxiliary benefits where as the Republicans dont. Also, Democrats trust woman, and yes poor woman to make their own choices. Rich woman can always have save access to abortions. Again less abortions are performed under democrats then under Republicans. Time for Church, Im running late. But you sure overlook all the lies that Trump has said. Only 15 perecent of what he says is true. Trump would lead our country to war, worse disparity between the rich and poor.

Faith based voters are like vegetarians in a meat market.

It's just like I always suspected, In the USA you can say the most vile, repugnant things about someone's ethnicity, their nationality, their religion, and the idiots will stand by you all the way....but as soon as you're caught talking dirty, that's it, you're toast.

Bunch of Puritans.

Not sure what country you are from, but that is not true. You cannot say the most vile things to anyone anywhere. Although we have free speech, we have social mores and some have religious affiliations that prevent decent human beings from behaving in a rude and crude manner. Many care about civil society, despite others calling it being PC. Just because some very rude members of society act as if they were brought up in a barn, it does not make it ok to talk like a pig.

Hey--next time you are at the grocery store, school, work, your church, on a bus, at the beach, at any public place, you go on up to women and ask if they mind if you grab their crotch. You may be arrested or physically attacked.

This is not "talking dirty." It is called lewd behavior or sexual assault.

As for the creepy incestuous behavior with the GOP nominee discussing his daughter's body and looks with one of the sleazy talk radio hosts in the country--well that's just plain old disgusting.

Hillary Clinton is the anti-Christ. Anyone and everyone with any morals should avoid voting for Clinton whether than means Trump, Johnson, Stein, a write-in or abstention.

Your politicians have a funny way of "caring about civil society". Many of them appear to have no principles to speak of and would have supported Trump fully even after all his hatred, bigotry and sexism--including the evangelicals--if this recent episode never surfaced. All it takes is for him to be caught being "lewd" for posterity, for all the fake moral outrage...as if he did something totally out of character.

In America it appears preserving one's principles as a politician, and acting on them when they are violated, can be damaging to one's political career. I bet you think that politicians are supposed to be this way, but no, it isn't. It's not like this elsewhere, not to this extent anyway.
