How
many times in this election cycle have you had fellow people of faith, acquaintances, associates, neighbors... even strangers say to you, “I don’t like either Donald
Trump or Kamala Harris” or words to that affect? Additionally, these same
people claim, they are not planning to vote for either one of them for
President on election day. If past election data and current polling stats
suggests that millions of people of faith presently are planning on not voting
for either Harris or Trump. In making this decision, such voters are exercising
what some have identified as the “Pontius Pilate Option” approach to moral
decision-making. When confronted with angry mobs demanding the crucifixion of
Jesus, did not the Roman governor attempt to absolve himself from moral
culpability for the crucifixion by ritually washing his hands with water?
Atlas,
in a fallen and sinful world where we are frequently, regrettably, lamentably...
are not faced with the comfort of an option abutted by good and evil, but
instead an option between the greater evil and the lesser evil. In the words of
Edmund
Burke, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do
nothing.”
I sympathize
with my fellow Christians, patriots and citizens who find themselves adverse or
ill-disposed towards both candidates. I find flaws in both DJT and Kamala Harris.
But I am not voting for a family member, an associate, or a spiritual advisor.
I am voting for a president to lead our Constitutional Republic for the next
four years and a Commander-in-Chief of our Uniformed Armed Services in a perilous,
unstable, and volatile world, as should be the case of every American voter.
For those
who find both candidates wanting. Allow me to provide you with some information
that may oblige the readers to vote one way or the other. Based on his first
term as president, there is no doubt Trump he is more
pro-life, pro-smaller government, and he will do far more to grow the economy,
especially among lower-income workers. On the economy, we have the luxury of a
clear comparison between DJT’s record in office and Kamala Harris’s record as
VP in the Biden-Harris Administration. In addition to the life issue Kamala Harris
is the most radical and unwaveringly pro-abortion candidate to ever head a
presidential ticket. Kamala Harris is obstinately in favor of the transgender agenda and will
certainly curtail parental rights to protect their children from transgender
propaganda, indoctrination, and potential surgery against their parents’ will.
