I'm not overly concerned with the rest of the politician makeup or whethere there is flawed logic involved.
Do you mean we need to have a Christian president?

They don't really follow their religion, but rather they use it to "pad their resume." As proof, look at how they only follow some ideas of "christianity" while completely ignoring the teaching of Jesus.

It's a show. Only the ignorant and the brainwashed believe that a universal god dropped by one time thousands of years ago and left the only keys to the kingdom with a bunch of ignorant, primitive camel herders who believed in witches and thought the earth was flat.
I thought you would want out after that
Religious folks will never discuss the obvious insanity of what's in the bible. A load of ancient horse shit loaded with fear and intimidation. The idea of a "Heavenly Father" punishing his own creatures with eternal damnation is ludicrous.
