I have no issue with Christians, or Evangelicals, or Pastors being vocally active in politics, but they don't speak for me, they don't speak for Christ.

Just like Paul said, as citizens we have certain rights.

If Christians were prohibited from voting and speaking, then they would be ignored and their concerns irrelevant during an election.

But just because someone is a christians and says they support a certain candidate doesn't have anything to do with me. I disagree with Christians about many things.
