Millions of Christians in the United States indicated in a study released on Monday that they are not likely to vote in the upcoming election this November, signaling a potential problem for the Republican Party.
Just over half of interviewees (51%) in a Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University study, who identified as "people of faith," responded that they are likely to vote in the presidential election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

If that's the case, then they will be happy with the election. They will get the government they deserve.

A POTUS is a CEO. Not necessarily a moral leader. Giggles will cause an economic depression and WWIII. President Trump will give us peace and prosperity. No choice.

Keep in mind that the media defines Jehovah's Witnesses as “Christians.” This cult has several million followers and does not permit their members to vote.

Many Christian fundamentalists tend to think they’re not “of this world” although they live in it. I have met many with the viewpoint of being separate from secular matters and being more “heavenly-minded.” To me, that’s a foolish and dangerous mindset; it’s also monastic.
Trump has been friendly to Israel, in contrast to the Democrat leadership. He, certainly, has not been antagonistic to people of faith, especially Christians. Vote for the man who has done the best job of president, more than all the other predecessors since Reagan.

They might want to read their Bible and take a look at history. . .

Sowing the seeds to kill two birds with one stone. Make Christians hated scapegoats, and explain away the cheat. The other article on this site had the fantastic assertion that 104 million "people of faith", which supposedly includes 32 million Christians *MAY* abstain from voting.

It is a fact that many conservatives simply do not vote. Have seen it in my home state too many times.
My advice to people who refuse to vote - you have to live in the ruins with the rest of us.

I wonder what % of atheists don't vote? Barbers? Postal workers?
Unfortunately, not voting is pretty common.
People feel like their red vote in a blue state is not important.
People feel like their vote on a dominion voting machine will be manipulated.
If nothing else, it makes it harder for them to cheat enough to swing a state to blue.
But sitting at home and not voting means you have no right to complain about anything in our government!

Those non-voters are NOT Christian but evil Hypocrites! Given the chance to fight evil, Christians DO NOT sit on the side line, they show Satan the door!

Most churches are under title 501c3, where they can't talk politics in church or they will lose their non profit status.
BUT, if you are AL Sharpton or other DemonRats pastors, you can do whatever you want and say whatever you want to sway the congregation in politics and not be persuaded.
Maybe if the members of a Christian Church can get up and speak out during the worship service, that way the Pastor is not involved.
We need ever vote possible.
Pray for our Country.

Voting does not convey a license to complain. We all have that right as Americans regardless of voting history. There are people out there who's personal integrity will not allow them to vote for a demon just because a worse demon is running on the other side. They see only one answer available to the individual: dont participate.
From the movie War Games..."Strange game. The only winning move is not to play".
I will be choosing my own mugger in November like most LDotters, but I'm under no illusions. In winner take all states almost half the votes DONT count.

Its difficult to fight evil. Voting against Dimocrats is the easiest way to do a small part to keep evil from surrounding you. Dimocrats are pure evil. Vote against it.

Mark 12:17: 'And Jesus said, 'Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar's and to God, what is God's.' In other words, religious people need to engage with the mundane, in worldly matters. Consider what's a stake. If you believe that Jesus won't return if the Jews don't control Jerusalem, then you and your family need to vote to make sure Israel is not destroyed. Just as Pharoah was not a friend to Joseph, Kamala Harris is not a friend to Israel. Vote accordingly.

They are talking to the social club Christians. The ones who tolerate biblical heresies because they are socially popular - like LGBTQ+ and transgender ism.
They don't vote for anyone. They never did.

Misinformation. Arizona Christian University indicates mush-head students were the interviewees.

I just don't believe this. How can you extrapolate the behaviors of millions of people from a sample of 3,000 over a couple of months?
