pastor regrets not assaulting John Bolton

[Kenny'sID]

I am quite certain. He's explicitly said he has not sought forgiveness from God.

Show me, and it had better be something recent.

Have you repented of your sins?

It was 2105. Everybody saw it.

As for me? Not relevant to the discussion.

 

[Aldebaran]

Is there really a difference anymore? It's all Evangelipublicans to me. For some people, politics and religion are one in the same, it seems.

Well, it's really not. But if we have 2 main political parties that are polar opposites of each other, one is bound to be more appealing to Christians/atheists than the other. Therefore, each side is going to support one over the other almost across the board.

?

Of course it is.

It's "Before you accuse me take a look at our own self" relevant

 

[Aldebaran]

So where is God when these "religious upporters" deal with the political rather than religious or spiritual aspects?

Waiting out in the hall until such time as He is relevant to the issue?

He's where He always is.
As for the supporter himself, he's in a political forum rather than a religious or spiritual forums. As you know, there are rules here about what can be discussed in each place.

We're talking about a public figure. Its normal to discuss the behavior of public figures without have to blab you own personal testimonial all over the discussion.

Polar opposites? I think that's an exaggeration.

It's at least 90% accurate. Sure, there's going to be a little crossover between voters and which party they vote for. But for the most part, people are pretty much entrenched in what they value.

 

[FireDragon76]

. Even in the bible it’s has verses about the harm mere words can cause. What if someone decided to violently assault that man at the “ suggestion” of this idiot preacher. Like Dylann Root took the suggestive racist rhetoric of Trump and murdered 9 people who were just minding their own business .

That happened under Obama. Roof was radicalized by the more extreme Alt-Right rhetoric on the internet, however.

There are many Democrats that are centrists, and even a few that are conservative. Being a Democrat isn't about being the opposite of a Republican, necessarily, and Democrats traditionally haven't been as ideologically-driven as Republicans.

I suppose many are. But the majority are going to vote for their democrat candidate. Look at their representatives in the House and Senate. How do they vote on most issues? Party-line.

They cut deals with each other to present a relatively unified caucas, it's called horse-trading. Politics is about compromise, and these sorts of exchanges are a necessary part of that.

I'm asking where that place is.

I guess that's why Christianity never caught on with me... I was under the mistaken impression that one's faith was a 24/7 deal...

My point is perfectly sound.

God is omni-present. That means He's everywhere.

It is. I don't see a problem here.

 

[durangodawood]

No it isnt.

Do you talk all about how much you lie, or have repented for lying, every time you accuse some politician of lying? Of course not. That would be absurd.

Go to the self-help forum sections if you want to talk all about personal stuff. The "news" section is for discussing newsworthy people and events.

 

[KCfromNC]

Do you, know he hasn't repented?

We'll just have to take his word on it - Trump on God: 'I don't like to have to ask for forgiveness'

In an interview on Sunday with CNN, the Republican presidential frontrunner said that he does not regret never asking God for forgiveness, partially because he says he doesn't have much to apologize for.​

He certainly wasn't with the pastor who wanted to assault Bolton... for doing what, exactly?

He was there. Just because a person doesn't do as they should doesn't mean God isn't there.
