LS6, Your question seems to suggest an incompatability in being a Christian and voting for Kerry. Am I mis-interpreting your statement?
For me, the choice is made on which candidates' positions, across a range of issues, best reflect my Christian beliefs. Don't think I've ever cast a vote based on a single issue.
What are candidates policies/position statements regarding children's issues? war/peace? family insitutional issues? homelessness? poverty alleviation efforts? elderly issues? single parent and family issues?
Secondly, does their rhetoric match their record? At this point in the process, R and D candidates will tell you anything; but everybody has a record and no 30-second commercial or cheorographed media blitz campaign can hide what that record is.
peace.
