Trump too conservative for the modern Church?

No, you did not. There existed other options.

You guys just cannot handle the idea that some would vote those options rather than betray their principles.

The real election was only Trump vs. Mrs. Clinton.

Not voting for Trump equals voting for Mrs. Clinton. So no, those not voting for Trump were not voting on principles.

Keep repeating the mantra if that makes you feel better, but it will not make it true.

Re knowing about others' principles. You may or may not have sacrificed yours to expediency, but others have not. Attempts at character assault make you look petty.

The refuge of the Ignoramus.

Not petty, but exceedingly stupid

ANY other vote would have been for Hilliary, as ONLY 2 had a real chance!
If your going to play that logic game, my 3rd party vote helped Trump given that he won. He even won my state and even my county so not voting for Clinton really did help him by your logic.

Amazing how voting 3rd party gave me 3 votes: a vote for Trump and a vote for Clinton and a vote for Castle. Carry that farther and you will see that the Trump/Clinton vote cancel each other out leaving only the vote for Castle to meaning I really only voted for Castle regardless of how liberals and Trump supporters attack third party voters.

Bottom line is that any vote other than for trump/Clinton was a waste of time in the practical sense...

practically speaking walking around a walled city is a waste of time, practically speaking sending a boy with a sling shot against a giant is a waste of time, practically speaking taking on a whole army with only 300 people is a waste of time...But God has a way of using "foolish things" or as you said waste of time to shame the wise.

Yup and you have never seen me deny that. Still doesn't prove your illogical statement about a 3rd party vote is a vote for Clinton.
Besides doing the right thing is never a waste of time.

That is true, as you can always vote your conscoience, but need to also be wise in using that!

I dont need the world wisdom, God's standards made it clear who I could and could not vote for.

He won't say, but I'm pretty sure Rolfe voted for Clinton. He's very secretive about it though.

voting 3rd party was the world's wisdom. that's what Hillary and the media wanted you to do.
Nope
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Sunday touted Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, saying that, "in a sense," a vote for a third-party candidate is a vote for Trump, the Republican presidential nominee.

“If you don’t vote, that’s a vote for Trump. If you vote for a third-party candidate who's got no chance to win, that’s a vote for Trump,” Obama said during a radio interview with Steve Harvey.

Compromising standards is the worlds wisdom.
