Why is it that all these politicians running for president right now, never mentioned how "religious" they were in the past-like when some of them voted along with Bush to go bomb down Iraq on flemsy evidence. Or, when they've made false promises to the American people for the last decade or so concerning education, health care, political pork belly spending reforms, etc.

How come every time political elections roll around, these phoney politicians suddenly catch the Jesus or Mormon bug, and wrap themselves up in the holy books of all religions, run up in the church pulpits, and "lie" before the Most High, and the American people within the church walls about what they are going to do for us if/when they are elected?

Do you think that the church pulpit is the appropriate place for all of these politicians to run political game on the church congregation? And, "try" to run political game on the Most High?

Should preachers, priests, ministers, etc. be allowing these politicians to use their church pulpits as political platforms for election purposes?

Has religion and the church lost its true purpose for existing in the first place? Is the church spiritually dying or already dead?

Should politicians stop being phoney as a three dollar bill, get real with the American people, and stop trying to hide behind God and religion? Is any one politician more phoney concerning their religious convictions than other politicians who are running for president?

Should there be a separation of Church/religion and politics/state?

This a despicalble act for potential office holders to campang from the church but it isn't illegal. Also the constitution doesn't say that there will be a seperation of church and state. All it says is that there will not be any state organized relegion or church.

"Should preachers, priests, ministers, etc. be allowing these politicians to use their church pulpits as political platforms for election purposes?"

>>>I think so. We need to spread the tax base anyway.

"but it isn't illegal"

>>>Definitely not illegal, as long as the church gives up its tax exemption.

It is not illegal for a church to invite guest speakers to their church.

I think all 'environmental' groups ought to be declared 'religious institutions' and thereby be banned from politics.

Word of warning... I don't play well with others.

I agree with you concerning what the constitution states-however, why do you think politicians using the church pulpit for election purposes is dispicable? Can you please explain your reasoning, I'm curious about why you feel this way.

Yeah, like that's really going to happen.

I agree with you, and I think Al Gore should be made to shut up about his inconvient truth bullshit, about his one sided bogus views concerning the environment, and so called global warming. What complete crap.

I know the answer does not elude you but I will eludicate just the same. First think of what religion is mostly about it is forgiveness, for if you find religion you have been reborn from your wicked way and are reborn into the light and are moraly just. Polaticians are no different than the millions of criminals that waited till they got caught to fing god. I mean think about it if someone steals, rapes, etc. etc. and then he breaks down and ask god for fogiveness and accepst christ lord the church goes crazy more so than your average person because god has saved such a retch. Now look at your presidential candidates they are god fearing so hey they are more likely to be trusted to be moral it's a tool they exploit just like all the other tools they use to scam the american people. And no matter how much one is against religion america is very religious in one way or another on some level. It's like useing skiny malnourished child on tv for the feed the children, it speaks to the American peoples hearts not there minds diffenece is when you vote that way you will get fucked every time.
