If Christians are truly rooted in the word, then their votes instead of violating seperation of church and state, would more likely be good for the nation and the world. Christians, when they remember what they are called for, exist to serve others, and not themselves.
For example, Christians should be for economic policies that reduce poverty, they should be for policies that increase racial and gender equality. They should be for policies that strengthen the family without scapegoating homosexuals. They should recognize as they are voting that we live in a society with many religions and differing ideas. We (I should say) should be voting for economic justice, social justice, and environmental protection.
Now, I want to make clear, that Christians CANNOT ethically and SHOULD NOT try and use their votes to turn this into a theocracy.
