You can tell it is an election year because those running for the GOP nomination are using the C-word (Christian).

Even the president, who rarely calls himself a Christian, used the word a lot at the recent prayer breakfast. As a Christian myself, I have a little knowledge of the do’s and don’ts of the Bible: You should pay your tithes, you should not support the homosexual lifestyle, you should not support the death of others through abortion, you should go to church regularly and have fellowship with other believers, you should not use your resources to eradicate Christian symbols or references from America’s landscape, but you also should not force others to change their beliefs.

Unfortunately, these behaviors are ignored by our president, who calls himself a Christian. Just look at his tax returns for his lack of tithing. In addition, the president seems to prefer golf and basketball on Sundays to attending church.
