Bishop: Christians Should Leave Democratic Party

Christian Post

A black Virginia bishop is calling for Christians to leave the Democratic Party over what he describes as a "cult-like devotion" to abortion and what he terms as a "rejection" of the traditional family.

Bishop E.W. Jackson, a veteran of the Marine Corps and Harvard Law graduate, says the Democrats' enslavement of some Americans, most notably black Americans, is the modern day equivalent of slavery and his focus is to lead an exodus, similar to what Moses did in the Old Testament.

"Let God's people go," Jackson told The Christian Post in a telephone interview.

"Clearly, the Democratic Party is the anti-Christian Party in this nation. They reject the Bible, what Bible-believing Christians embrace and they encourage the growth of what we can a 'non-traditional' family. That is morally wrong and a disgrace to our nation and our Lord," said Jackson.

Whoa. Strong words. Very interesting...

I'd say I have to agree with him. I've tried to convince a boat load of Democratic people to do that...

He's right about enslavement of blacks. After 50 years of blind faith to Dems, blacks are worse off than any other minority in the US.

Black unemployment in the US - 15%
Hispanic unemployment in the US - 11%
Asian unemployment in the US - 7.5%

People who are "Christians", whether born again or not, might as well flee the democrat plantation. The democrat nation has nothing to offer them but just about anything that contradicts the Bible.

The Bible. Imagine that. The Bible conflicting with abortion, homosexuals, homosexual unions, sex outside of marriage, etc.

The horror. The horror.

Talking

From the article;

"However, Colorado attorney David Kennedy – who wrote "You Voted for Who? And You Call Yourself a Christian?" – disagrees with Jackson and even says more Christians should align themselves with the Democratic Party.

"I find the Democratic Party policies more in line with Christian principles than with the Republican Party," Kennedy told The Christian Post. "You can pick your poison if you want to, but I find it odd that some Republican elected leaders require their staff to read the works of atheist authors such as Ayn Rand. Does that mean all Republicans should leave their party?" "

Really? You refute a Bishop with a lawyer? Just when I thought you had reached absolute stupidity, there you go stepping it up a level.

I think nonnoboy saw "Kennedy" and thought it was automatically the truth.

Don't forget his sources. He couldn't understand them if they were true...
