1  Entertainment / Politics and Political Issues / Can a Christian be a Democrat? on: November 05, 2003, 04:50:08 AM
Hello my handle here is Apostle0121.  I am a very conservative believer and I do believe in the Bible as the final authority of faith.  I do have a problem.

I was raised a Democrat.  I understand Democratic politics and I truly do understand their logic regarding Constitutional Liberty for all even sinners.  I believe abortion is definately wrong in most circumstances, but due to the complexity of each woman's situation I believe the mother is best left with the ability to choose.  I am a strong advocate for the Seperation of Church and state.  I do not agree with most Republican policies and corporate greed.  I believe in Democratic government.  

This has caused me some pain and I have had much soul searching.  Most friends of mine are Republicans and when we fellowship it seems as though they are oblivious to the numbers regarding the economy and they are often unaware of rights and priviledges protected by the Constitution.  Sometimes I feel like they do not understand that the Bible is the rule of faith...not a manual of civil law.  

Sometimes I feel Republicans are manipulating Christians I care about by using their faith and morality against Democratic candidates who are actually better leaders and believe in social justice.

I was pleased to find a pro-life Democratic group called Democrats for Life of America but they are a minority.

What are some of your thoughts on this.  God bless. Embarrassed
