13. And the argument back is...
... that God has already judged it to be a sin. And they want nothing to do with a political party who looks the other way.

Most Christinas will tell you they can live under any type of economy, whether it be capitalism, socialism, communism, fascism, or any other "ism". They lived under the Roman Empire trying to hunt them down and kill them, for gosh sakes. They'll tell you that God will provide for those who are faithful to him. They'll show you where God ordered the Israelites to go to war to take what would become Israel. But, they've told me they cannot and will not vote for a party who upholds what they consider to be sin as stated in their holy scriptures. That's where the rub will remain.
