Issues Americans are facing into this election

August 5th, 2008 · No Comments

I am considered by most in NJ to be Conservative - and by others - to be Liberal.   Quite honestly I am neither… or maybe I am both. With the election coming up - I am stocking up on bleach and making sure my hot water heater is filled -  after all I will need to disinfect myself after voting:

The Barna Group investigated the issues concerning Americans the most …  What are the biggest problems facing Americans today - and What are the issues facing American Christians…  the findings are interesting

  1. Poverty
    >> 78% of Americans
    >> 78% of U.S. Born Again Christians
  2. Personal Debt
    >> 78% of Americans
    >> 79% of U.S. Born Again Christians
    >> 81% of U.S. Evangelicals
  3. HIV/AIDS
    >> 76% of Americans
    >> 77% of U.S. Born Again Christians
  4. Illegal Immigration
    >> 60% of Americans
    >> 68% of U.S. Born Again Christians
  5. Global Warming
    >> 57% of Americans
    >> 33% of U.S. Evangelicals
  6. Abortion
    >> 50% of Americans
    >> 67% of U.S. Born Again Christians
    >> 94% of U.S. Evangelicals
  7. The Content of Television and Movies
    >> 45% of Americans
    >> 60% of U.S. Born Again Christians
    >> 79% of U.S. Evangelicals
  8. Homosexual Activists
    >> 35% of Americans
    >> 49% of U.S. Born Again Christians
    >> 75% of U.S. Evangelicals
  9. Homosexual Lifestyles
    >> 35% of Americans
    >> 51% of U.S. Born Again Christians
    >> 75% of U.S. Evangelicals
  10. The Political Efforts of Conservative Christians
    >> 23% of Americans

Evangelicals are apparently more concerned about personal debt than are our non-Christian counterparts… This seems like Bondage to me… What are your thoughts?
