Kansas pastor Adam Hamilton, who entered the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in August 2026, has stated that he rejects the doctrine that Jesus is the only path to salvation, claiming all Muslims may enter heaven.

Rev. Dr. Rebecca Todd “Toddie” Peters, an ordained Presbyterian minister and professor at Elon University, has been reported as suggesting that Jesus would support abortion today if he were on Earth.

Nancy Jo Dederer has stated that the Bible passage declaring salvation through Christ is exclusionary and not a matter of tone but of scripture.

Social media responses to Hamilton’s campaign video showed no positive comments.
