would you vote for a homosexual candidate?

[Zaac]

But how would you know? I mean, short of them actually saying, "by the way, I'm gay, and this is my boyfriend," you're not going to know, and even then you don't have any inside information on whether they're sexually active. Unless of course they actually make a point of saying that, but in my experience, people don't tend to talk about their sexual activities or lack thereof.

David.

I didn't pose the question but I'm assuming the premise of the question is that you would be privy to this information about the candidate.

And lets just be real. If there is anything like that going on in someone's life, you're gonna find out because it makes for salacious news. the media is cut throat.

If they can make snow flurries into Winter Storm 2007, they can make a national headline out of a candidate's homosexual trysts.

 

[MrPirate]

If they are currently not involved in a sinful heterosexual /homosexual relationship, yep.



.

You would vote for someone who admits to being in a sham marriage?

 

[MrPirate]

How does it NOT matter?

Take for instance a Rudy Giuliani. He's an adultering, parade his mistress around, divorce his wife, marry his mistress jerk who believes in a woman's right to kill a child.

Why would I trust someone like that to be a person of honor and character in making decisions that affect my life?

Same thing with any other candidates life. If you show yourself to lack character and Christ-centric morals, why would I as a Christian expect you to honor me and my wishes when you willfully disrespect and disobey Christ without repentance?

Ronald Reagan was an adulterer

Better not to vote at all it seems.

Better not to vote at all it seems.

or vote for the candidate who best represents your interests? Other then that you could run for office yourself?

Would you vote for someone that called sin, sin?

 

[tulc]

Would you vote for someone that called sin, sin?

Would you make sure our streets were protected and our schools had good teachers and our sewers worked? If so, you could call sin whatever you liked.

I'm not talking about "homosexual trysts", I'm talking about a candidate being in a monogamous - possibly married - relationship. And yeah, you'd probably know that such a relationship existed, whether heterosexual or homosexual. What you wouldn't know is the exact nature of the relationship, whether the couple are sexually active or not. Since we're not privy to that information, are we really qualified to make judgement calls on it?

David.

 

[dpartlow]

I would not vote for a gay politician, for the same reason I would not go to a gay minister.

 

[jad123]

I would not vote for a gay politician for the same reason I will not vote a politician that supports abortion, a weak military, or socialist health care.

 

[D.W.Washburn]

I would not vote for a gay politician, for the same reason I would not go to a gay minister.

Would you go to a gay doctor?

 

[MrPirate]

I would not vote for a gay politician for the same reason I will not vote a politician that supports abortion, a weak military, or socialist health care.

Socialist health care?…Do you mean Medicare?

 

[MsVicki]

If the candidate was qualified and represented my interests, I would vote for them without regard to their sexual orientation.

Me, too.

 

[Zaac]

I'm not talking about "homosexual trysts", I'm talking about a candidate being in a monogamous - possibly married - relationship.

If he's gay and in a "marriage" relationship with someone of the same sex, then no, I wouldn't vote for him because we obviously have different moral standards.

And yeah, you'd probably know that such a relationship existed, whether heterosexual or homosexual.

David.

If they are not having sex, then they should identify as friends and not two people in a relationship together.

And if they tell me they are in a relationship together, I would ask them to clarify what that means and if they are having sexual relations with each other.

Likewise, neither would I vote for a heterosexual candidate who was living with his girlfriend even if they said they weren't having sex.

 

[Zaac]

Would you go to a gay doctor?

If his ability to practice medicine hinges upon moral vs medical decisions, then nope, I wouldn't go to him.

A gay minister who like other gay "Christians" who affirm same-sex sex has no witness. There is nothing that he could say about sin that wouldn't come across as hypocrisy.

 

[David Brider]

If he's gay and in a "marriage" relationship with someone of the same sex, then no, I wouldn't vote for him because we obviously have different moral standards.

If they are not having sex, then they should identify as friends and not two people in a relationship together.

So it's only a "relationship" if they're having sex?

That doesn't really make sense.

And if they tell me they are in a relationship together, I would ask them to clarify what that means and if they are having sexual relations with each other.

And if they tell you that it's really none of your business?

Likewise, neither would I vote for a heterosexual candidate who was living with his girlfriend even if they said they weren't having sex.

So in other words, you're happy to assume the worst?

David.

 

[jad123]

Socialist health care?…Do you mean Medicare?

I mean Hillary Clinton's new health care plan.

 

[dayhiker]

I voted other .. meaning I'd vote for a homosexual candidate. The type of their sexual relationship isn't what would be important to me, but what their policies are on the issues I think need to be addressed.

dayhiker

 

[cwolf20]

voted the first one, and Other. I base my votes on whether I agree with a person's stance on issues or not.

 

[MrPirate]

I mean Hillary Clinton's new health care plan.

So SOME socialized medicine is OK…but not others.

Can you tell me what the difference is?




Tell me…have you actually read the proposed health care plan?
