9 Reasons Christians Should NEVER Vote | Eastern NC Now

    There's been a lot of debate about Christians being involved in politics and the role their faith should play in voting and policymaking, but no one is asking the really important question: should Christians even vote at all?

    The Babylon Bee has put together the following list of reasons why a Christian should never vote:

1. Separation of church and state: Duh! It's in the Constitution! If Christians are the Church, they have to be separated from the state.
2. There is no record in the Bible of Jesus voting: Aren't you supposed to be like Jesus?
3. Our home is in Heaven, not here: You should never make any effort to make a difference here on Earth.
4. David French might call you a Christian Nationalist: There is no more devastating slur.
5. Voting for a flawed human being will completely destroy your witness: If a candidate posts mean things on social media, a Christian can't vote for him. That's in the Bible.
6. The 15 minutes you spent voting could have been spent handing out Chick tracts: Priorities, brothers and sisters.
7. There is no voting in a theocracy: Your only leader is God.
8. You should just be washing the feet of all the people in line to vote: Stop wasting your time voting and let everyone else know that "He Gets Us."
9. The winners are predestined anyway: God has already divinely chosen which totally depraved wretches will be in power.

    See? Cold, hard proof of why Christians should never vote. If you claim to be a follower of Jesus and have voted... pray, ask for forgiveness, and start minding your own business like you're supposed to.
