It includes the Beatitudes, and is prefaced by "judge not, yet ye be judged." And yet, right before, it has this pearl: But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

It's been like shoving electrodes into your grey matter looking for signs of life. Also, maybe : A) dont claim to be motivated by a work of religious text and then be butthurt when I use it against you and B) dont include a quote, and then a quote about how quotes can be twisted by evil people.

All this analysis does is prove, yet again, those basic reasoning and research skills you boasted about earlier need quite a bit of honing. There's not a factual statement in there.

And I of all people, don't think it matters if Trump attends Church, because it has zero bearing on his ability to steer the ship of state and he's never claimed that in who he is. I think he is doing a terrible job regardless, but we really shouldn't be making any deal about his Church visits. ...why, yes, that is a surprisingly accurate depiction of "values voters". How astute of you. Because we don’t want morality legislated upon us so his morality had nothing to do with it. Also becaie we were tired of business and usual. And boy has he upset the usual business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're awfully proud of yourself for what amounts to building a straw man and tearing it down. Your position relies on the false premise that christians tend to hold the position that the president must be the second coming of Jesus. Because the premise is false, everything that follows is self-indulgent rhetorical ma$turbation. Which can be fun, but it's not a game.

Well, it's funny because I see them treat the opposition like the devil. And, let's be honest here, I have seen enough art of God Emperor Trump (no, I am not kidding, this sadly exists. There are parts of the internet I wish I could unsee) In fact, I believe one of the early posters referred to HRC as the spawn of Satan. Which, hey, I didn't like her either, but hey, when one side starts basing their choices on 2000 year old myths you lose some credibility. If I told you that I sincerely believed that Loki affixed his testicles to a goat's beard, and therefore I didn't believe in vasectomies you would look at me like I was a gibbering nutcase. But when Tasker talks about how his rights are offended because Starbucks used a different color coffee cup, his rights have been trampled and he is being persecuted. and yet, my Norse Poetic Edda reference has as much validity as his book of worship. 45 minutes ago, Chef Jim said: Because we don’t want morality legislated upon us so his morality had nothing to do with it.

It does say something about this country that you have to at least pretend to be religious as a prerequisite for the job. People would vote for a Muslim before they'd vote for an atheist. Things are changing, but atheists have a legitimate claim that they're the most persecuted group in the United States. 20 years from now, I expect more people to be non religious than religious.

Because those sound like statements. and I dont see you refuting that in your last post. Every word of your statement about me, and Q, are incorrect. That's what I was pointing out. You claim to be well reasoned and a good researcher, yet you bobble two very simplistic research summations. My record and what I believe in/stand for aren't hard to intuit as I'm rather open about them... and I've shown my work in terms of how I arrived at my opinions. Q is a different beast, but your summary and definition is 100% incorrect. Because you don't do real research. You read spin pieces (probably then, only the headlines) and do none of the due diligence yourself. You've outsourced your own critical thinking, which you've demonstrated with every post in the Trump/Russia threads. That's a shame. You could be so much more if only you'd put your ego aside.

I said agnostics and atheists aren't close to Muslims as the most unpopular group in the US when it comes to religious views. I have no problem with presidents being religious as long as it doesn't directly impact policy (not a fan of when George W said whether truthful or not, "God told me to end the tyranny in Iraq" when it was becoming more unpopular).

Depends on whether the atheist is a tolerant atheist or a Zealot Yes, there are atheist zealots. The kind of people that get up in the face of somebody that believes in God to argue they are right and the religious person is a fool. I've met a few atheists more fervent and zealous in their non-belief than any Christian, Jew, Muslim, or Hindu.

Hurry.......tell us how Hillary is totally irrelevant (the party line), even though her degeneracy is the main reason that Donald J. Trump is our president. His presidency is the direct fault of the democrats, who nominated this evil crooked degenerate to oppose him.
