I agree i think god uses abortionists and homosexuals and environmentalists to do his work as well.

God gave the world an organic solution to rampant overpopulation and subsequent environmental concerns and Christians lost their minds because it’s easier to cherry pick Leviticus

[h=1]This Presidency Has Exposed My White Christian Friends[/h]

Intellectually I always knew that racism was deeply embedded into the fabric of our nation, but I’d convinced myself that it had slowly but certainly begun to unravel, that we weren’t as hopelessly bound by it as our ancestors had been. As a pastor in largely white churches in the south over the past two decades, I told myself the story that the Church was changing. It may have been a combination of privilege and wishful thinking, but I truly thought that we were getting better, that the arc of the moral universe was bending toward justice



I surely never imagined that so many people I loved, lived with, worshipped alongside, or worked next to—were as afflicted with supremacy as they apparently are. I never fathomed that so many people claiming to love Jesus would so resent foreigners and so worship America and so abhor difference. They were really good at pretending and in my naivety I suppose I was more than willing to believe them even if they weren’t.

I saw the cracks in their facades begin to show when Barack Obama was elected; their carefully coded hate speech begin to surface, their ever more incendiary social media posts from fringe sources, their incessant, desperate search for something to be outraged about, their inability to give him any credit or acknowledge his goodness. They grew more entrenched in their positions, more tribal in their tone.

Yep.


And the poisonous partisanship Pubs have embraced, cresting in damnable and damaging fashion against Obama, isn’t just about racism. But also, and for Republican leadership probably mainly power.


Under Trump Republicans are now openly in favor of the worst degradations of governance and society. All to struggle to maintain power.
 
So-called conservative Christians and Republicans generally, in embracing and defending Trump, have lost any reasonable or legitimate claims to respect or allegiance from decent and thoughtful people.
 
Like half of what she says is borderline or full blown blasphemy.

And if your top 3 advisees in spiritual matters are Michael Jackson, Kid Rock, and Trump, maybe you are advising the wrong spirituality.

Somewhere upwards of 100%. After all, saying no to Trump would be saying no to God. It wouldn't surprise me if they had holy coitus (for thirty seconds) at least once a week. I don't think he's getting any from Melania, at least not anymore.

It's a shame. She was actually pretty hot 15-20 years ago when her and her ex-husband blew up in the megachurch circuit.
