As dangerous at some think the ultra conservative Christian is, the voice from the pit of hell is given full approval from the secular humanists who would drag our nation into every perversion known to man…


So, lets keep the UCs around we need their voice….ALSO
But is being a Christian necessarily the same thing as being a Conservative?

I think that Christians need to stop trying to thwart Bible prophecy and stop acting as if this present world was our home.

not being a christian is not the same as being conservitive. but being a conserviitve christian should not exclude one from participation in the determination of the direction our contry takes.

As I said in an earlier post:

Participation in the political process is, at least in America, part of rendering unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's. However, there's a difference between that and having an attitude that any earthly nation is our home and culture and, therefore, we have to make it a more comfortable place for Christians to live.
