It gives us a window into who they are and how they apply what the gospel teaches.

What party are you?

What party are you?

My state doesn't require registration with a party, so I am not any party officially.

You can't be serious. You can look into the window of one's soul by determining their political party affiliation? You must have some supernatural powers of discernment, but I call "hogwash!"

If Christ does exist , I'm not sure whether he'd chuckle or cringe at the significance that his children place on the very temporal, constantly evolving and completely man-made construct that is politics and/or political affiliation.

You do know that GOP stands for "grand old party" and not "God's only party", don't you?

Gosh you took that statement and stretched it as far as you could didn't you.

If you want to see it this way. We've had this long discussion before and it ended in the thread being locked. I refer you to my previous posts on why I don't the being a Republican makes you any more righteous in God's eyes.

Okay, then, if it was required in your state, which party would you register with?

What party are you?

Neither....I am an Independent; socially, I lean Democratic and fiscally I lean Republican. I try to vote the best person for the job, not the party affiliation, and in the most current election, my votes were scattered between Democrats and Republicans (I cannot stand my current Senator, Dianne Feinstein (D)).

Independent.

People keep parties and politics out or this is closed. In fact it appears to have become pretty partisan. Time to close.
