This mightn't be the best question to ask. A better course of action might be to reflect on what Jesus did.
Jesus didn't support the "Christian morals" party of his time.
The religious leaders were always at the business end of his wit and mind.....pointing out their deceptive practices and hypocrisy.
On the other hand - what was his line with the conquering, murdering rulers? Compliance and obedience.
Maybe there are some good questions to ask coming from thinking on these things...
Maybe it's time to move beyond stereotyped non-answers of traditional dem/rep politics and look to the suffering of people who live in your own country.
Maybe it's time to lay down the manta of "capitalism is best" and begin talking up the virtue of ALL human life. Perhaps the sword and spears of the so-called "war on terror" would be better beaten into ploughs and bowls to feed the worlds hungry.
Maybe it's time for farmers to stop crying that no-one loves them anymore, and to store their treasure in heaven by feeding dying children instead of demanding high tariffs to protect their cosy standard of living.
Maybe it's time for real christianity to show its head instead of devils-christianity of party political politics.
Maybe it's time to realise that lives matter to God, not just aborted fetuses, as abhorrent as that practise is.
Maybe it's time....

Since this whole "Democrats vs. Republicans" and "what really matters" topics are still continueing I'm going to once again post these two questions and hopefully I'll get an actually response:
1. Is the Democratic Party a "pro Christian" party (Does it have a record of defending Christian values and morals)???
2. If the answer to the first question is "yes" then please tell us how and give examples
Once again even though I'm Republican, doesn't mean I agree with everything other Republican belive or have done (I'm anti-death penalty myself). There is NO perfect party! As I've mentioned before I'm only a Republican because it is the ONLY party I know of that has a record for sticking up for the Judeo-Christian values and morals this country was founded on.
But hey if you feel that I'm wrong then PLEASE answer the above two questions.
