"They are a stronghold of the Republican party."

I believe that conservative Christians are looking for politicians that espouse and vote a point of view that most closely resembles their values. Clearly, the Republican party most closely matches our beliefs.

The 10 Commandments formed the basis for all laws in Western Civilization. Those laws were designed for the individuals and the communities best interest. Duet 6:18 says, "Do what is right and good in the Lord's sight, so that all will be well with you." Jesus told us "The first and greatest commandment was to Love our God and that the second was to love our neighbor as ourselves. Upon these 2 commandments hang all of the law."

I can guarantee you that true Christians demonstrate their faith and values through actions. A belief in the Word of God, as found in the Bible is the basis for our values. That, while you might not agree with those actions, it is based upon love and accountability.

We seek to hold those we help elect accountable for acting upon the promises they made when they campaigned.

In the past 40 years we have migrated to "If it feels good do it." And other self seeking points of view. This has become the basis for the situational ethics and morality that forms the basis for much of the political debate between the 2 parties today.
