Why on earth would you expect an ordained Baptist minister to not mention religion?

Question

That's like expecting a democrat to not mention tax hikes.

Vote for whoever you want just vote.

Answer 1

All the more reason to not vote for him. I am not a Baptist but have no problem with someone else being one. I don't appreciate it when someone shoves their religion in my face or down my throat. Religion, doesn't matter whose, has become much too much of an issue. They are not running for Pope.

Answer 2

Scott hit the nail on the head. While someone agrees with them liberal democrats are all about the first amendment. The minute they disagree they are all about censorship.

Much as it upsets the atheist and democrats they can't stop religion nor can they have things one sided the way they hope. It's one of the primary reasons they tend to fail a majority of the time.

Answer 3

I wouldn't expect him to not mention his own religion. But, religion in general, is really none of his business.
However, if his duty is to try and bring people over to his religion, to leave discussion of it out, as I see it, means he wants something else, like perhaps a political career? Someone who believes as Baptists are supposed to, lives by the truth they believe, and will die for those beliefs, as Jesus Christ did.
Personally, I don't believe in religion, anymore. The "church", and their "pastors" are not what they're supposed to be. Too many diamond rings on their fingers, and million dollar homes.

Answer 4

I'm not a liberal nor a Democrat. But when in comes to electing a president, you want a commander in chief someone who is capable and is grounded well in foreign affairs. Huckabee is a former minister, he is supposed to represent the American people not a particular church or religion. This turns some people off who aren't of any religion. The fact is that Huckabee is not running for a position as pastor or reverend, he is running for president. Most people don't care about a candidate's religion affiliation, they care about the issues. Huckabee comes off sometime as avoiding real questions with religion. It portrays him as fake.

Answer 5

I do not expect it. He has a right to express his religion in public, just as another has the right not to belong to a religion.

Answer 6

Is he also an American. Does the First Amendment also apply to Huckabee?
Of course it does.
Guess what libs. It's his campaign money, he can spend it any way he wants and say what he wants, don't like it? Don't listen.

I don't like Hillary, and I don't pay attention to her. I don't care what she says so I don't listen. I also don't complain about what she says either.

Answer 7

Yes, vote theocracy. Vote Huckabee.

I mean it's not like a candidate for President of the United States of America should be able to talk about real things like foreign policy, the economy, health care, etc. I say stick with the fairytales kido.

Answer 8

Or like most Ministers you automatically expect him to have an affair with a few women and have a gay choir director and a youth pastor that is a pedophile.

This is the 21st century and these acts are normal religious conduct.

Answer 9

I wouldn't expect it. I would expect him to mention religion every chance he got and that is why I wouldn't vote for him.

Answer 10

i expect him to mention it, just like all the other candidates - but he is going out of his way - making commercials that have crosses in them ect.
