Gods Soldiers
Mike Huckabee is a Baptist preacher. He is running for President. He preached at a church last night in NH. He never once mentioned the election, that he was running for office or asked for votes. He talked about how Christians are Gods soldiers and how being a Christian in todays world is difficult. A writer from the Washington Post critized him for this, saying he shouldn't be advocating God during an election. Last time I checked, being a preacher was just not his calling, but his job as well. They wouldnt slam a congressman, lawyer, doctor or teacher for doing their job would they? Then reading the comment section on the article was very very sad. Once person compared Huck to hitler, saying that his soldiers followed orders as well. Some said he was an extremist. Whether you like him or not, all these comments are uncalled for. As a person and a Christian, it hurt seeing a fellow brother attacked like that. My two cents.

That's kinda silly... If he was preaching at a church, he was preaching at a church. I'd be a little irritated if he DID mention the election. What also irritates me is when he's all over Jesus during his debates and stuff, basically using Jesus as a marketing tool. But that goes for everyone. Religion doesn't matter in a president.
Religion doesn't, but relationship does. I'd rather my president rely on God's leadership above everyone else's.
