"Christian" Trump supporters

It's quite simple really: ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

He doesn't see it.

Based off of your track record with following things that I say accurately, it probably has more to do with your biases towards anything that I write and your desire to willfully misinterpret everything that your opponents write.

It came across as a dog whistle.

Other things you have said have had a similar feel to them.

If I am mistaken, then so be it.

My track record is one of candour.

What's it all about?

Is it just about stopping women from having abortions?

Is that all it is, or is there some other reason for "Christian" fealty to Trump?

OK, let's play stupid word games...

I'm an Asian supremacist.

Perhaps you are not a racist.

Saying racist things and frequently posting links to racist websites might give people a different impression, however. I would avoid those things to deter misunderstandings in the future.

Much appreciated.

Oh. My. God.

Call me naive, but I actually had not heard of this, nor come across this in print before. As I read this page, it got worse and worse, until I could barely believe what I was reading. This is some of the purest evil I've ever heard about. I've known people who believed in these things, but I just classified them as regular racists or Neo-Nazis, or some such.

I didn't realize this was a 'thing'. And now I can't 'un-see' it.

These truly must be the 'Christians' whom Jesus will tell "I never knew you".

The whole can be painted bad because of few, hopefully using a metaphor will not
lose a few here. This was part of the testimony of a Muslim who found Christ, he
said that when they viewed life in America through the news everything they saw
on the news was all a refection of Christianity, because America is called a Christian
nation. If you thought everything you saw in film and news was a reflection of
Christianity what would you think of Christianity?

Your post almost sounds like a "boys will be boys" apologetic for the article I read. Did you read it?

Nothing apologetic about anything I said.
No I didn't read it, you want me too I will.

Apart from the abortion issue, why else did (and do) so many Christians support Trump?

racism...
white-skinned folks have been taught to dislike/distrust brown-skinned folks...
trump is the morphine that relieves the constipated conscious...

Very narrow view if you ask me. I'm more incline to think narrowing this to just
white-skinned people is actually a sign of racism. When you open it up to all, than
no race is better or worse than any other, then racism is then revealed when one
starts to denigrate and belittle another race regardless of who the denigrated
and who the denigrator are. No one particular race is superior to another or worse
than any other.
