Religion and politics

In the current political race to the U.S. Presidency religion has become a major issue with Clinton, McCain, Huckabee, Romney and Obama, that some of them have even gone so far as to profess a disbelief in Evolution as a true measure of the religious convictions. Now one of the primary reasons politicians proudly display their religious credentials is the mistaken belief of the religiously deluded that the politician in question somehow identifies them with a higher moral standard, and therefore are more honest and trustworthy.

This couldn’t be further from the truth, as any rational person knows, the very fact that they ARE Politicians precludes any guise of honesty and trust. People who’s only desire and chosen career path is the control of other people’s lives under the rule of governmental coverage, masking as ‘leaders’ their inability to perform any other honest work. The Constitution of the U.S., and for that matter, any other country, is the basis of control of the government power, and not to control the population governed.

So the question is, why would anyone credit a politicians religion with any value? Beats me!

    Of course religion is important, voters need to know that when the shit hits the fan, the politicians have to answer to God.

  2. Branedy says:

    All well and good, assuming that the politician believes in a god, they could be lying. As in an old posting of mine Swearing on the Bible, Politicians are naturally dishonest, why would you believe anything they profess to believe in?

  3. Gamma Goblin says:

    Because religious devoties are gullible by nature.

  4. Sinéad says:

    Which of professed a disbelief in Evolution?

  5. Branedy says:
