5. Regarding your overall claim, I’m not an authority on [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]Republicans or Christians[/FONT], but last I checked, America is still populated by [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]plenty of both[/FONT]. Unless you wish to alienate [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: yellow"]a majority[/FONT] of the country, you might consider something a tad more conciliatory. ....

I’m not a registered Republican, but from time to time, I have voted like one. ....
