Gay marriage and abortion are both very important topics to a God-believing Christian.Christians should vote for parties that are closer to the values of Christ and the bible. Sadly too many right wing Christians are hung up on gay Marriage and abortion and forget about social justice.
Lots of people disagree with you on that point. Don't assume your beliefs are infallible.Gay marriage and abortion are both very important topics to a God-believing Christian.
We should be against them...after all, God is.

We should but still need to approach them with some common sense and they should not become the primary issues or focus as they seem to be at times.
Religion can be a nasty thing if not practiced correctly.
Seriously i have seen right wing conservative Christians try and use scripture to try and justify them spanking your wife and advocating the death penalty.
I recently saw a programme where fundamentalist Christianity is used in Ghana to discriminate and oppress disabled people.
There was one lady at a so call Christian healing centre that chained disabled people up and prayed for God to heal them and blamed their disabilities on sins. It was like she was still living in the middle ages.
It doesn't take being "infallible" in order to be correct.
I guess we can find a few people who are way out of the norm, no matter what philosophy is motivating them. That doesn't make for a valid argument against religion, or government, or patriotism, or liberalism, or conservatism, etc.

They were fallible, like all of us. That doesn't mean what they wrote was incorrect.People forget, the bible was written by infalliable men, not God
That's amusing, not only because of the claim of being the "first" but also because he was completely non-political and when he did get involved with government, he was scrupulously in favor of obeying, of deferring to the authority of the government.Jesus was the first liberal.
Consider the possibility that it has morphed into a left wing group run by people who are only interested in what they can get out of it rather than benefitting mankind in general. You've heard of the Clintons, I take it.Its just i feel that Christianity has morphed into a right wing group run by people which are only interested in what they can get out of it rather than benefiting mankind in general.
Whether I am infallible or not is not the point.Lots of people disagree with you on that point. Don't assume your beliefs are infallible.

In my experience liberal politics tends to go against God's principles. While Conservative principles not so much.I say not cause you go against Christs values but it will interesting to see what others think.
I agree with this post.I'm not aware of any evidence that this was actually done in the Middle Ages...

For that matter, which party presided over every major war the US fought in the twentieth century?
They think war is the answer for everything but it isn't.
