So, if the acceptance or non accetance of Christ is not necessary what then do we base our beliefs in for this country? So am I ignorant if I believe that we should look at the moral character of anyone who is running for president or are we supposed to just look at is he qualified to run this country? What is qualification? Don't we all have a different idea of what that is? What are our basis on qualified? Where do they come from, out of thin air or what we believe or what we have been taught? So , I f I have an education that makes me smart enough? Afraid not, I am educated and I believe we neeed to get back to the basics of where this country was founded. Not allow someone who is afraid to even admit he is or is not a christian to run. It all goes back to morals. Does he have any? Or is he just full of lies? Why won't he come out and say what he really stands for?
