Is God Liberal or Conservative? - by Bruce A.Ritter and Jeffrey D.Davis
Speaking about the U.S. presidential campaign, author Paul Kengor expressed the following in an interview with Frontpage Magazine: “Hillary Clinton realizes that if she is to win in 2008, she needs more than the atheist vote. She needs to win a sizable enough sliver of those 2000 and 2004 moral-religious ‘values voters’ who twice elected George W. Bush. Those who attend church weekly or more went overwhelming for Bush, by two-to-one ratios, and each time provided him with an absolutely decisive vote margin of about five million ballots. “It became clear in the immediate days after the November 2004 vote…that [presidential candidate Hillary Clinton] was going to go after that values voter. She angrily complained that it was a sign of ‘such disrespect’ to think that liberal Democrats who believe in God cannot be attractive to these religious voters. Ever since, she has pursued a strategy to win them over in 2008.”
Since both the Conservative Right and now the Liberal Left, in effect, claim that the God of the Bible is on their side, this naturally begs the question, “Is God liberal or conservative?” In other words, what “social issues” and positions does He support?
