Jimmy Carter was a welcome change from the Nixon Era. Ford and Carter were pretty much aware of needing to be low key after what the country had been through. They were just caretakers until we were ready for a real President again with Reagan.Separation of church and state
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor is believed by some religions but becomes quite the conundrum when attacking political beliefs using religious as the bat.
You shall not spread a false report. seems to be a problem for the right. Of course the right beliefs that the left is doing it and Right does not. Self serving interests and how unfair life is.
Some say division isn't Christianity but in politics its a daily occurrence. Politian's run for office based on division. Yet it seems to be a card played a lot by everyone.
Still in my opinion Jimmy Carter was the most religious president in modern times. At 95 he teaches Sunday School. He was crucified because of his statement that he had lust in his heart. Yet there are no woman who have come forward and said that he had an affair with him. I wonder how many presidents can say that.
Yet Reagan sold weapons to Iran in exchange for trying free some hostages in Lebanon. Money was also sent to Nicaragua . That was some stellar diplomacy that did not work out in the long run.Jimmy Carter was a welcome change from the Nixon Era.

Christianity is the worship of God through benevolence and good will towards fellow man. We don't need an inquisition to determine the motivation of lawmakers of good will, to see if they are in violation of the 1st Amendment by their legislative proposals.The mixing of Religion and politics is the problem. The constitution is clear based on the "no law " statement in the first amendment. The separation of church and state.
Yet Religions beliefs is the core issue that those will use to say that they are right in their Political opinion.
Religion when mixed with politics will make people have no perspective of opposing view points. The feel righteous as they stand on that pulpit with a bullhorn. The bull is some deep righteousness. The y will rant, rave and cry as they get swept up in their emotions. Loosing site to the one fundamental argument that all people are created equal.
Equal when it coincides with their beliefs. Yet they can't separate the church from the state are the ones who create the problem.
well at least there righteous in their own eyes.
A pimple on an elephant's butt compared to the Obama and Biden administrations.Yet Reagan sold weapons to Iran in exchange for trying free some hostages in Lebanon. Money was also funded to Nicaragua . That was some stellar diplomacy that did not work out in the long run.
yeah I am sure Reagan prayed and did a few hail Mary's to keep it a secret. Until it exploded.
HUD rigging scandal
Lobbying scandals
Savings and Loan crisis which was caused by Regan removing loopholes and the walls came tumbling down
results - $125 billion government has to use to keep the industry afloat. Thus increasing the budget deficits.
The gift that keeps on giving.
