Evangelicals Refuse to Support Romney, Urge Voters to Write In Jesus

Internet evangelist Bill Keller is urging the faithful to promise to vote for Jesus for president in this election.

So far, his website, VotingforJesus.com, says it has more than 1.6 million pledges to write in the name of Jesus on their ballots instead of any other presidential candidate.

If even half of those who signed the pledge vote accordingly, this could signal real trouble for Mitt Romney in close races by reducing the pool of voters who usually opt for the GOP.

But Keller, in an email interview, argues otherwise. “A large percentage of the people signed up are part of the 9 million self-identified evangelicals who never voted at all in 2008,” he maintains. “While they will write in the name of Jesus for president, they will also vote for men and women who share their faith values down ticket. It is flawed logic that if you don’t vote for Romney, you are costing him votes or helping Obama. The only way to vote for either man is to vote for them.”

when I learned that tests on the Shroud of Turin revealed that Jesus had human growth hormone in his body at the crucifixion. So all of his records will be expunged for performance enhancing drug abuse. Some French professor busted him.

Hmmm...something tells me Fugelsang and the evangelicals probably aren't on the same side of this issue, though.
