    What in the earth are you talking about?

    I think that you are posting from emotion rather than from thought.

    Aaron, please explain to me the virtue of voting for someone who is ungodly.

    When Paul appealed to Caesar, was Caesar's godliness the issue?

    Magistrates can be pagans if they govern well.

    Paul also appealed to his Roman citizenship to stop a centurion from torturing him (Acts 22:25), but this does not mean that Paul approved of the Roman government. As an American citizen I can use my constitutional rights to my benefit, but I am not bound to violate my conscience according to my faith (1st Amendment). The murder of unborn children is legal in the United States, but does that mean that I should be compelled to affirm and support Roe v. Wade? On the contrary, I am protected by the 1st Amendment from doing so, according to my religious convictions.

    The only argument you can make for voting for the lesser of two evils is a pragmatic argument. Ergo you are to trying to bind the conscience of those who disagree with you without providing a clear biblical cause.

    You are free to act in accordance with your conscience. Vote or do not vote. The choice is yours. But when you try to pin on me the charge that I am willing to see my neighbor perish, you display the weakness of your argument by trying to shame me. I can make the argument that it is harder to act according to conscience and conviction than to give in to pragmatism and compromise.

    Man go sit down. You ain't convincing nobody to support the devil just because you're scared of Hillary.
    [​IMG] Go on somewhere with this foolishness. I'm a follower of Jesus Christ. My life, liberty, and happiness rest firmly in His hand and it won't be wrestled away by anybody sitting in that office on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue."because life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness lie in the balance":rolleyes:

    You need to have a little talk with Jesus.


    Carson and his church also see Jesus as Michael the Archangel.O O

    [​IMG]Poor thing. You're just trying to keep him from going after Trump.[​IMG] Hillary isn't running for the GOP Presidential nomination. Trump is.

    o_O Here, I fixed your argument for what it means to others to show how baseless it is. :)
