Why I don't Vote

If you read this article, I don't think I have to do much more explaining. I simply can't vote. Voting my conscience requires that I not cast a vote. Maybe that is the easy way out, I don't know. What I do know is my Christianity does not require that I vote. It requires that I not withdrawal from my world, but find ways to actively engage it, but praise be to God - I am not required to vote to get to heaven!

The three things to avoid if you do not want to cause arguments are said to be religion, politics and money. I have never made it a point to force my views on you, or your brothers, but it seems you have reached mine, with regards to voting.
WELCOME.

What else is there to talk about, if not religion, politics or money?

to talk about or argue about? and to answer your question - God, family, work, relationships, TV shows, the Bengals, MAC vs PC, digital vs film, how long is too long a nap, etc. not voting is not what is used to be - our generation is so 'free' that is kinda cool not to vote. but i get your point and i'm with ya.
