Political Christians

I’m dismayed at the mean-spirited politicians who claim to be Christians. They certainly aren’t following the teachings of Jesus who advocated inclusiveness, forgiveness, compassion and love. His message was one of including others whether of different backgrounds or occupations. He reached out to people in need rather than advocating sending them back where they came from. He taught love your neighbor and enemy not berating them at every chance. It’s too bad these teachings from two-thousand years ago have been lost in political rhetoric.
