Conservative Christians are really in the minority in our society. People who actually believe in the orthodox tenets of the faith common to Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox Greek and Syrian denominations and Coptic variations; People who accept these tenets and pick up their crosses and follow their savior are becoming more and more rare.
Yet, Conservative Christians strike terror into the unstable heart of our Secular Society. People who are betting their lives on an immutable truth are far less likely to hold their noses and vote for an unacceptable candidate then are the self described pragmatic members in society who view moral relativity with a measure of acceptance.
Of the top three current republican candidates, none pass the smell test for many conservative orthodox Christians. The smell test being blatant sin. Of the top three democrat candidate candidates, only Obama comes close to passing the smell test, yet he has a habit of sticking his foot in his mouth.
So here are several issues I feel that the candidates must legitimately deal with. However, I don’t believe that any of the top six candidates are capable of legitimately dealing with these issues.
- 1.Public Schools have failed the poor.
- 2.Public assistance has failed the poor
- 3.Tax and spend politics destroys the economy.
- 4.No-Tax and big spend politics destroys the economy
- 5.The war on terror is stalled, yet the threat to western society is greater then since Adolph Hitler and the Nazi Axis.
- 6.The military is woefully understaffed and under-armed and ill-trained to fight this new kind of war.
- 7.Many native born American citizens are furious about the immigration situation and they’re tired of being called racist, bigots and stupid.
- 8.Conservative orthodox people are tired of being persecuted, called small minded, inflexible and dangerous for holding to their faith.
- 9.The tax system is broken.
- 10. Politicians on both sides of the isle act like prostitutes available for a fling for the right price.
-
There are many other issues to think about but these ten are but the place where I begin to agitate for change.
