Do you think it is possible that any person can be true to their religious beliefs while simultaneously being a big time politician in the US?

Depends on the religion I suppose. Certainly not if the polly is a member of a self proclaimed 'righteous' religion.
Just curious Skell, which religions would that be?Quote:

If however the religion allowed / practiced lies, deceit and grubby smears against others then the politician would be fine. He / she would have no problems simultaneously being a politician and be true to that particular religion.
But I'm not sure if such a religion exists.
Don't fret, it wasn't a shot at religion speechless. More a shot at politicians.
It's not forbidden to question and harass Mormons. Criticism doesn't have to be true. It has to be strong and constant.

Question, yes. Harass? That doesn't sound too Christ-like to me.
Seems to me, Tom, that YOU are the one acting cultish... constantly bash Mormons and Roman Catholics, at any cost, even if the criticism isn't true. That is what you said. That seems pretty extreme, narrow-minded and one-track-minded to me. In other words, cultish. I'm not one to defend ANY Christian sect. But you seem pretty hostile against certain religions to me. How do you feel about Jews?
