I pray for my President and Vice President regularly. However, when the Vice President of the United States uses the name "Jesus Christ" as an expletive in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, we should communicate our disapproval. Why? Because we expect lost people to revere the name of Jesus? No. Because we expect those who 1) profess to be believers and 2) represent our nation by holding such a high office to at least show basic respect to the name at the center of our faith.
When the Vice President doesn't think twice about denigrating the name of Jesus but would not think of denigrating the name of Muhammad, it not only demonstrates his approval of a grossly unfair double standard, it also paves the way for worse acts to follow which demean Christians.
Join me in expressing your disapproval (in a Christ-like and loving manner) here.
