Thanks for the feedback Cher. Not sure what the No Proof means? The exit poll were pretty clear that Christians voted majority for President Trump.
Speaking of Also not sure about the claims the HRC is as criminal as you say, maybe she is but I’ve seen all the attempts at prosecuting her but their has been No Proof. I guess hen the Pro President Trump folks would say that all Fake Media. I guess it could be.
Last thing, I’m not sure if you’re say President Trump is more honest that HRC but if you are it’s worth having a look at the list of provable lies he has told since being president.

I have a number of Christian friends in the US who voted for Candidate Trump. They support his policies.

You and others draw conclusions with NO proof. Many Christians voted for Trump
because the choice of a proven long term crook was not an option. Hillary has been getting away with things you and I would be in Jail for…
As Christians we need to pray for better candidates. However because the corrupt media is choosing our candidates we are left with bad choices.
SO PRAY FOR HONEST PEOPLE TO RUN FOR OFFICE.

Author of article is correct re. Canadian National anthem – he was quoting from the official French version (which has very different words from the English.)

Mike has used an English translation of the (original) French words “Car ton bras saint porter l’épee, il sait porter la croix” – because your can carry the sword it can carry the cross. And “Et ta valeur, de foi trempée, protégera nos foyers et nos droits” – your courage, steeped in faith, will protect our homes and our rights”.

Sorry, Canadians. I googled the lyrics of O Canada and that was what I found on Wiki.

I agree, it takes some credibility away from an article when you state something that is simply untrue. While I did enjoy your article, I would have liked to read the words “God keep our land glorious and free” instead.

By “wealth redistribution” do you mean the Salvos, Vinnies, Anglicare, Catholic Care etc giving money, food and goods to the disadvantaged? Tithes being used to relieve suffering?
Does “Moral Compromise” mean the rich gettting profoundly richer? Pollution choking our air and water ways for the next generation?
Some issues may have been claimed by either the left or the right but hat doesn’t make them wrong.
Just Christians (according to what I understand for exit poles) played a big part in putting Trump into the presidency doesn’t mean that outcome is “Gods Will”, it just means Christians share his values.

Social justice is definitely a Christian issue, but without presuming to speak for him, it appears to me that Mike Bull was referring to “left wing” socialism that seeks to use the arm of government to force redistribution. Surely we can agree that we have different perspectives regarding the role a modern government should play in regards to social justice, can’t we?
I don’t find explicitly Christian justification for much of the Tea Party’s platform, but I do find the wisdom of general Revelation in much of what is proposed there. Within our faith, we should be able to disagree with each other regarding specific policy/political solutions. Social justice is in the Bible. So is the sanctity of life. So are sexual ethics. So is a recognition of private property (hence the commandment against theft). Christians should speak about all of these things with one voice, even if we differ as to governments role in arbitrating such things. Otherwise we make the same mistake you rightly point out in this article and throw our lot with one political party or persuasion when in fact both are often right and both are often wrong.

When you mix religion and politics, you get politics–be it of the left or right variety.

Not sure where you found yours, as a Canadian I’ve never heard the lines “Your arm knows how to carry the cross” and “Your valour steeped in faith”.
