Politics and Religion don't Mix

OK, I brought this up because I'm sick of fake politicians pretending their faith is guiding them when it's really the money that's their true ruler. Mitt Romney was a religious leader at some point lie faster than a satanist. I mean he could probably break the record! The president lies too, but with all this you have religious leaders stuck in the lies and deceit! Romney went over the top with the Chrysler lie of the company going to China. Which if his company Bain owned it definitely would go to China. This scared people in Ohio thinking that there job was gone. Then every news outlet fact checked him and he still made a commercial that a 3 year old can find the truth about now. The president has some lies of his own like he would walkout and picket with union workers. He didn't even mention them until late. He didn't close the prison or even try to change Washington like he said. But Romney should be a shinning example to his faith or maybe the root to all evil has caught up with him. Satan is perfectly fine with a person confessing Christianity as long as he doesn't practices it. If you can't trust a man with little things...

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well yes even i feel that religion and politics should be kept away from each other as much as possible. I have seen that many politicians these days are using religion as a vehicle to gather people's sympathy but that has put a negative impact on the people as it is dividing the people on the basis of the religion and creating hatredness and spat among them. Politics should never involve any religious issues in it. What say?

I agree Subhojit, whole heartily it's sad when I see dedicated religious people lose common sense when they follow people who have no integrity. And no matter what the politicians become the most they talk about and follow which dilutes the truth.

today2 I don't think anyone can totally separate their religion from their politics. Many 'live their faith' so therefore every movre they make will be affected by their belief system. Of course you are right in saying some just use it and are hypocrites..for example some like to be photographed carrying their Bible into Church on Sunday morning just for 'effect'
