BatTrump is in the Battycave! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/trump-told-christian-leaders-he-got-rid-law-he-didn-n904471 Quote:In closed-door meeting, Trump told Christian leaders he got rid of a law. He didn't. AS a side note: Given his complete lack of understanding, refusal to learn and belief only in what he says and does, do you think he thinks that everytime he signs something it is automatically a law? Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.

Why single out Christianity? (08-29-2018, 04:38 PM)fredtoast Wrote: Then why did he refuse to talk to his own mother? Nowhere does it say he refused to talk to his mother. For all we know, after he made his point, he went and talked with her. In any event, he was using this situation as a "teaching moment" to show that we are ALL brothers and sisters, that we are ALL family under God. Some go so far as to say that Jesus, here, is saying that our spiritual family is MORE important than our earthly family. I don't know if I'd go that far, myself, but in any event Jesus was not being rude or disrespectful to his mother.

It's our religious leaders that prompt up people like Trump and Kim (who had 3 husbands and cheated on all of them, had kids by men she was cheating with while married, and yet we praised her for standing for the sanctity of marriage). We keep doing this and we keep seeing people flee the religion. I agree that hypocrisy is a huge problem in Christianity that drives people away, but I don't think it's the religious leaders' hypocrisy that's causing the problem, it's the local leaders' and the local members' hypocrisy that is far more devastating to Christianity than any single religious leader in Washington D.C.

Not sure what I've ever done to give you the assumption outside of criticizing Trump and being Pro America and Pro Vets. It has nothing to do with your criticism of Trump. I just didn't see you as a Christian. That's all.

Going with my earlier post questioning why care if religious leaders are hypocrites: I personally don't care if ANY leader - religious or otherwise - is attacked for their blatant hypocrisy like this.

They have sheep that believe everything they say. And when the leader is as false as the one quoted I want their sheep to hear it. Will they believe me? Probably not. If they had the ability to see these "men" for what they really are they wouldn't be hseep any way. I don't see the need to DEFEND one group over the other just because of your religious beliefs. Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.

Just don't lump everyone together (for example saying ALL Christian leaders are hypocrites because of this one quote by Graham - which, btw, I am NOT saying is what you are doing) and you won't have to worry about me saying anything. Not that I think you worry about what I'll say or anything.

Actually most political groups can cite facts to support their position. Christians are the only ones who brag about ignoring facts in order to maintain their beliefs. "That is why it is called 'faith'."

Every single person at this event was invited because he/she was an evangelical leader. Other than Trump staff and assistants the event was limited just to evangelical leaders. Do you dispute this is true. Every single person at this event supports Trump. If they did not then they would not have been invited in the first place. Do you dispute this is true? Trump is a liar, a crooked businessman, and has cheated on all three of his wives. Do you dispute this is true? I remember you tried this same lame logic to prove that there was no white privilege in the Jim Crow south because some white people were poor. I am starting to feel a little embarrassed for you.
