I totally agree with the last two posters. I am a Christian who goes to church every Sunday, and I am also pro choice but I am certainly not voting for McCain/Palin for many reasons. Number one, being pro choice is not the be all, end all for me. Abortion is not going to be overturned anyway and I find it sad that so many people are voting based on this one thing that won't change.
Secondly, I am not planning on having an abortion. So if it's a sin, that is not something I will have to speak on when I get to Heaven. God allows us to make personal choices.
What I am concerned about is the gas prices that are so high that I can't even afford my gas hog mini van. And since the vehicle is only two years old, and no one is buying large mini vans right now, I could not even get rid of it because no one would give me what it was worth. I'm also worried about the taxes that have gone up so high that it's hard to make the mortgage payment. My township had the highest tax rate increase in the county. Being a teacher who has not seen a raise in two years because of contract negotiations, everything has been rising except my salary. THOSE are the things that directly affect me and my children.
There are Christians out there who are voting for Obama because he is the best candidate overall. I could never find a candidate who represented everything that was important to me. So I will vote for the one that represents my concerns the most.
