Lemmings get away with mass suicide. Will we?
Prominent Christian pollster George Barna, now director of research at Arizona Christian University, has made a dire and rather disheartening prediction for this year’s presidential election.
According to Barna, 73 million Christians–and maybe even as many as 104 million–do not intend to vote this year.

Barna expects only 51 percent of Christians to vote.
What? Are you people suicidal? You want to spot Kackle Kamala and Tampon Tim 100 million votes–are you out of your minds?
Okay, Donald Trump is not St. Paul come back to life. But sheesh! “Oh, but he isn’t holy enough for us…” And we all wind up paying the price for so-and-so’s virtue signalling. “Sorry! I only vote for the righteous candidate!” Donald Trump has put his life on the line for our country, but he isn’t holy enough for these characters. And neither are we, I guess.
According to “Statista,” there were only 161 million registered voters in 2022. Let’s see… Knock off 1o0 million holier-than-thous who won’t vote, leaving 61 million to do all the voting… and whoever can get 31 million votes–under 15 % of the total–wins the whole shootin’ match. Some 14 percent of the voters get to decide how to govern the country, and who gets to do the honors of pulling it down.
This is profoundly self-righteous. And self-destructive! You can only abuse something so much before you wreck it. America as a constitutional republic will not survive a Kamala Harris presidency. Maybe somewhere out there, there’s someone who’d be even worse than she would. If there is, you can bet the Democrats are already looking for that person.
[P.S.–I interviewed George Barna, some years ago. He seemed a person to be taken seriously.]
Anyone who waits for a righteous candidate will have a long wait … like, maybe, forever. “We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.” And that goes double for politicians.
You said it, Phoebe.
Thank you.
One Christian writer just completed a 12-part series examining the candidates in light of Biblical teachings and offered wonderful, biblical guidance on voting in this election.
