A lot of Americans claim Christ and endorse homosexual marriage, out of wedlock sex, adultery and things that are anathema to the Christian faith. A growing number of them ascribe to the belief that Islam and Christianity share the same God, and that all paths go to heaven.
Christianity in America is become a buffet table to pick and choose what one likes and what one doesn't like and make up your version of a Jesus salad.
It goes-to-figure that self-identifying Christian Conservatives are justifying their vote for a NYC Liberal Democrat who says a cracker and a sip of juice is all he needs to qualify as a devout Christian.
Matthew 15:8 indeed.
