An open letter to Pastor Jody Hice

I believe, as a Christian Democrat, that when you pit congregants and Christians against one another from the pulpit, you do nothing to further understanding or love for thy neighbor. Jesus spoke out for those who were suffering, the poor, and society's outcasts. Isn't it more beneficial to the world that you do the same, as a man of God? Sir, we live in a democracy, not a theocracy, and when you start believing that some Christians are better Christians because of their political beliefs, you are no longer preaching God's word, but your own.
