Lesser of Two Evils

We all know we need to vote.  But what do you do as a Born-Again-Christian when your presidential choice is for a Mormon or a closet Muslim? 

One prophecy writer suggests choosing the lesser of two evils. 

Seems like that's pretty much what we have been doing all along.

With the election literally right around the corner, that seems to be all that’s on people’s minds, at least my mind and those around me. Even though I believe Romney will win Tuesday, I don’t believe it will do much more than buy us some time. Unlike so many Democrats who see Obama as the Messiah and the Savior of mankind, I believe a Romney Presidency will merely delay the inevitable. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it’s just a lesser of two evils.

There are a few Christians who have a problem voting for a Mormon, but for me, I’d rather have a Mormon in the White House as a Muslim. But they just have a problem with Romney not being a Christian, but what they need to realize is, with the possible exception of Reagan, we haven’t had an honest born-again Christian as President in the last fifty years, and quite possibly much longer than that. And with Reagan, with information I’ve read over the years about him, I’m not sure what to conclude, but I’m uncertain he was truly born-again. I pray that he was. But regardless, Romney, if elected, won’t overturn Roe vs. Wade and will probably not do much, if anything, to stem the growth of the homosexual movement. Think about it, all Republican candidates run on a pro-life platform, some more strongly than others, but once in office, they barely mention it if at all. They all know how crucial the evangelical vote is for them, so they have to have the appearance of being pro-life. Abortion is still readily available and I don’t believe it’s going anywhere. The most we can hope for with a Republican President is that the growth and funding of abortion mills like Planned Parenthood decreases to some degree during their term. But overturning Roe vs. Wade is not going to happen.

Do I believe that the election is important Tuesday? Yes, absolutely. But, I don’t believe that if Romney is elected that he will turn this country around and all will be Unicorns and Leprechauns. I think at best, as I said above, he will just delay the financial collapse of this country. I believe we’ve already mostly had the moral collapse, but the financial will just complete it. But I do believe that we could have enough stability (financial and otherwise) that we may have another four or eight years ahead. Maybe. But if Obama gets re-elected, I will be very surprised if we are still around for another Presidential election. Or if we will even have Presidential elections any longer. The evil we see today in society and in the world of politics is perfectly described in 2 Timothy 3:13 , “But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”

I honestly don’t know how much our votes count. But I do believe we have a responsibility to try to elect the lesser of two evils. It may not be perfect, but it may buy us more time to reach family, friends, and strangers with the Good News of Jesus Christ before it’s too late. Let’s do what we can to try to get that extra time.
