The truth is that those three things — “good,” “conservative” and “Christian” — are three separate things. A person can be good and Christian and not conservative. Or they can be good and conservative and not Christian. Or any other combination. Those are three categories independent of each other. And a lot of people get hurt, unfortunately, when they assume someone can’t be one without the others.

Add to that this from David Hart:
"People who think Jesus would have loved the Second Amendment and hated Mexicans—are simply not Christians. There’s nothing about their vision of reality and their relations to their fellow human beings that bears the slightest resemblance to who and what Christ was."
I guess "conservative" is all Green's got?
