    It is sad that Christians are voting for a supporter of gay marriage and infanticide.

    Obama's overseas (foreign) contributors
    Obama's Millions in Illegal Foreign Donations
    According to a Newsmax analysis of the Obama campaign data before the latest figures were released, potential foreign currency donations could range anywhere from $12.8 million to a stunning $63 million in all. With the addition of $150 million raised in September, this amount could be much more....

    I've got to hand it to him. He knows how to take a page out of Bill Clinton's play book for campaign donations.

    I apologize, Palatka51. I shouldn't have accused you of being dishonest. I guess I will have to stop reading in this forum and the poltics forum. Just too much blood pressure raising stuff being said by both sides.

    I'll be glad when this election is over and we can all go back to simply being Christians and work together in promoting the gospel of Christ Jesus instead of promoting politicians.

    Couldn't agree more! How do Christians justify voting for one who is viciously pro abortion and has voted to support infanticide? Also given Obama's financial support from the middle east it is strange that he is apparently getting the Jewish vote.:confused: :rolleyes:

    Exactly... McCain will not save America
    Obama will not ruin America...

    Jesus is the only one that can save.

    Real change doesn't come from the desk in the oval office.. but the response of people to the men behind holy desks each week!

    We have work to do.. and it doesn't matter what happens in DC.
    We still have to do it!

    Getting back to the op, the reason Christians are so confused is that there is no one running in the two major parties that clearly represents conservative and Christian values. One has to either vote for McCain, who is at best a moderate liberal, with a clothes pen over their nose to keep Obama from winning, or vote true conviction and vote third party. It is an awful dilemma for this country.
