Is being a christian a pre-requisite for being president of the US? |
I know what the law says, that no religious test shall ever be administered for public office, but is that really how it is? There has never yet been a non-Christian President of the United States, but that's not to say there never will be. It's always possible that people will stop voting representatives into office because of their races, religions, and other "distinguishing" characteristics and start choosing their votes for REAL reasons; there might one day be a Jewish, Muslim, Deist, or even (sarcastic gasp) Atheist President, but sadly, that day does not seem imminent. So, my answer would have to be, "Yes, it is possible for someone that is not a Christian to be elected to the position of President of the United States; but unfortunately, just because it's possible doesn't mean that it will actually happen anytime soon." It's not a written rule, but each candidate must claim to be christian if he or she is to stand a chance at being elected. They don't really have to be christian, they just have to label themselves as that. BEING a Christian is not a pre-requisite, but PRETENDING to be a Christian definitely is. Constitutionally, yes. In reality, at this time, no. America's largest religion is Christianity. It follows that the majority of voters would be Christian. Maybe someday we will all just be able to respect and love each other. Right now, so many of us use religion as a weapon. "God's War." IMHO-Yes. no, because the biggest voting population is christian, and they would not vote in some one who did not believe in God. Its not the kind of christian that gets you a win unless your oponent is christian...if your the only christiand running.... Not according to the constitution! However, our constitution is based on Judeo-Christian principles, so a Christian or even a Jewish person would understand our government better than say a Muslim or an atheist. Atheists have about as much chance of being elected as homosexuals...what a shame! Lincoln was an atheist (agnostic?) and Jefferson was an agnostic. Legally? No The presidents are anything but Christian. In fact theyer abunch of damned masonic devil worshipers. I'm against it. Unfortunately, yes. It seems that way. That is only because the majority of voters are christians. too bad for everyone else.... :( I could barely imagine an atheist US president. In Canada it's a common thing, but right south... just woah. -Pretty much no We vote our conscience, values and issues at stake !!! Religion has a lot to do with all three !!! It would be nice to believe we could have a president who isn't influenced by the lunatic fringe. Well Craig here is my two cents worth on this subject. The reason why we swear on The Bible in American courts of law is because The United States of America's laws and judicial system is and always has been based on The Mosaic Laws written by the God Yahweh, who is the God America always worshiped. Americans including Christians in America have technically been under The Mosaic Law of Yahweh since America was founded by our forefathers. We are Christians who follow Jesus' moral laws but it is His Father Yahweh's laws we swear to to tell the truth to in our courtrooms. So America would be making a blatant act of blasphemy by electing any presidential candidate that is not a worshiper of Yahweh as our leader. Was Bill Clinton a Christian? He said he was a Southern Baptist. But the convention quickly denied him. Obama said he was a Christian--but look at what he believes and who his friends are. Jimmy Carter said he was a Christian...well thats not as bad as Bill C claiming it. That is the whole problem, listening to people, instead of listening to God. Obama and Clinton are Christian in name only, they do not support Christian values. |
