I can’t remember an election year with so much hatred, anger, accusation, vile, repulsive mud slinging, condemning, fear, ugliness and blind allegiance than this one. And I am not even talking about the candidates, I am talking about Christians! Somehow Christians on both sides of the political aisle have become more like the candidates than […]
