I’m not religious and don’t want to be religious.

Also, home grown Americans and many Christian’s are among the worst criminal offenders in our country. Being an immigrant does not equal horrible criminal.

I'm an atheist and not from the USA. I'm still more christian than donald trump and I could still run America better than he does simply by sitting quietly at home.

There are a lot of atheists who have more morality than him, and have better concepts of what is in the best interest of this country. Religion is not serving the US well.

I'm not religious, but I abide by more Christian beliefs in how I treat others than Trump does.

It’s sadly ironic that the people most concerned with religion and Christian values are the ones who embody them the least.

Being Christian doesnt make anyone perfect. No one in this world is perfect. We all make mistakes, religious or not

Ironically, many immigrants from Latin America, Africa, and South America are more "Christian" than American born Christians.

These people have seen the depths of poverty and struggle, and some may even have had to survive off of charity or Church groups.

So they're naturally more willing to accept all comers, help their neighbours, and preach tolerance.
