Sure, but even Christianity generally says that people have a duty to uphold their community and not ruin it. It even supports the idea of people changing their minds based on new information. And if we want to take the idea that he’s a Bible literalist, there’s still abortion instructions given in there.

Edit: I can give him points for ideological consistency I suppose, but I’m not sure how that actually rates a positive, either by the teachings of his religion or by the metrics of what makes for a good politician.
