I don't go to church, though I am a Christian. I am a republican, but left my church because it preached the republican agenda from the pulpit. Politics has no place in the church

No, the church I attend urges everybody to study the issues and vote for those who you think will best fulfill their job. They do not endorse or encourage certain candidates or political parties, that is something that you should choose for yourself. A candidate can not be said to be better than the other just because of their political party. There is good and bad in each political party.

Amen SG! I agree, my church tells me to vote my conscience, which is what everyone should do. We should study the issues, then study the candidates, and choose the best candidate that will vote and relect your views. If a church is telling you to vote for a particular party then you should be a little cautious about your church.

No, they expect me to vote the way God directs me to vote. I read and study the Bible and then vote for candidates and issues that most reflect the ideas and teachings of my faith. While it is true that this usually means voting Republican, my church never directs me that way.

I think that a church that campaigns for a candidate or party should lose every member. Although I have heard many churches giving instructions on who to vote for.

No. We never discussed the voting at church, but I will say if they did then it would lean towards more Republican MORAL views.

Good question here. Since Jesus is the one I follow, and not man, I'm sure my church would understand that my political votes are my choice. We should all be aware that while one party CLAIMS to represent Christians, and morals, it isn't necessarily true. Remember, Jesus warned against putting our faith in hypocrites.

My church expects me to vote my conscience, and my conscience leads me to vote republican/conservative.
