Voting for country, not party; voting 'God is Love'

 

Only 1 in 50 or fewer front yards are displaying election signs in fall 2020. This one differs to the others because it seems to interject candidate Jesus of Nazareth among the other contenders for state, local, and federal positions that now are contested.

Two weeks ago a radio segment with someone from a Catholic organization offered to interpret how the many varieties of Christians can justify in their own minds the need to support one party or its opposite. When pro-life (anti-abortinn) is the overriding issue, then Trump's promises make his candidacy the one to support, despite the rest of his life, business, and use of these past 3.5 years in the office of President for the wealthiest country on average. But when abortion is less prominent than social justice, then the conclusion is to align against Trump and vote for the democratic challengers. In this way, "people of the book" can be diametrically opposed with each other and still be guided by Christian teachings.
