"And yet not a single positive trait for the candidate you voted for."


In the two party system of American democracy one often votes against a candidate rather than for one.


 


Warnock has as much experience as Walker. He was about as effective as obama was. But at least Warnock voted. Obama voted present. Great job fellas


Explain why, beyond Trump's endorsement of the (R) after Walker's name, he is the better candidate?


 


I could stomach Warnock unyil he used religion as his crutch. He's about as religious as an abortion clinic.


I am very, very cynical when people profess being 'born again', as Walker has. It's very similar to continuously proclaiming one's virtue and innocence. I wonder why one would think that necessary beyond living a virtuous Christian life.


Abortion is pretty new as a political issue, becoming a fulcrum to sway American voters in the mid- to late 20th century. Yes, laws were passed denying abortion in states, largely swayed by Christian fundamentalists politicians. Thus, it is a religious issue, which brings Constitutional considerations to the fore. So, I'll ask, again- when is another person involved in a woman's pregnancy? You won't find reliable scientific or philosophical basis for your position outside your religious sect...


 


Religion, other than Roman Catholicism, isn't an accurate indicator of the faith's position on abortion:


"A 2022 Pew survey found that about 66 percent of Black Protestants and 60 percent of white Protestants who are not evangelical believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases. Additionally, 56 percent of Catholics say they think abortion should be legal in all or most cases."



As far as I can tell, Judaism and Islam are as mixed on the question as Americans are.


 


P.S. Are you a 'man of the cloth'? Five generations of my paternal male ancestors were pastors of churches, often multiple churches on a circuit. I've lived in the pastorate houses, I know the life. I don't see much in Warnock besides his political activism than differs from other protestant preachers I know.
