and you don't see any difference there? That being affiliated with a church that you attend, even infrequently, is a stronger indicator than merely having belonged to one somewhere else earlier in one's life?
Yes, but that comment of mine was made for a particular reason you are omitting. It was suggested that Trump's pastor doesn't know anything about him or can't verify that Trump never has darkened his church's door. That's not accurate to say
I don't see the difference you do, particularly given the reason Obama is no longer attending his former Church. Using your criteria, obviously Reagan must not have been a Christian once he became President -- funny how Republican's weren't yelling about how he was no longer Christian. Oh, that's right, Reagan's political views agreed with yours, so you didn't feel the need to question his Christianity. You also want to ignore that Obama frequently holds and attends prayer breakfasts where he talks about his faith in a way Trump never has. Instead, you have a Trump who does not seem to believe in repentance -- based upon his own statements -- which seems to be a key part of Christianity. You also ignore the reason the pastors comments were made -- Trump's claim that he attends church a lot.
Again, you don't seem like you can objectively look at this issue as the double standard seems huge from here.
