Yeah, Trump is Literally Hitler. I don't know which side is the most deranged;, the "Trump Is A Saint" folks or the "Trump Is Satan" lot. There's enough lunacy there to go around.Kicking bibles, voting for Trump, it all comes from the same place.
What struck me is that I see four people participating in that stunt, in the video, and yet it's the gender of the one woman that's made an issue, as if somehow that's where the problem is with all of this...
I'm saying that people have latched onto the gender of the one woman, to make an issue of that, rather than seeing that the problems here simply aren't about gender.Are you saying that if the holder would have been a woman and the kicker a man, we would have gone after the holder?
exactly right! The men in the congregation are also supporting kicking the Bible.I'm saying that people have latched onto the gender of the one woman, to make an issue of that, rather than seeing that the problems here simply aren't about gender.

Look, the whole thing, the whole "super bowl of preaching," looks to my non-American eyes to be completely irreverent. Silly gimmick and not in any way edifying. (Something I'd like to put down to "only those crazy Americans would do this," perhaps with a side dose of, "thank goodness for churches with robust liturgy," and move on).
I don't know why she did it, and I don't want to judge her motivations from ignorance.If that's true, and if that's how the world thinks, why did she do it?
If you knew you would be singled out because of your gender, would you do something stupid like she did?
I think my disappointment would be similar, in that it's a gimmicky action (and a profoundly disrespectful one, at that), taking what should be the place of proclaiming the good news of the kingdom.How would you have felt if she had kicked a statue of Mary, instead of a Bible?
Is it?
And if Donald Trump kicked a Bible, would people be just as mad?

I know that I would definitely be. And I am someone who voted twice for Trump.Is it?

I am curious as the reasoning behind "support of Trump is incompatible with Christianity"?They are not of a piece. Moreover, Trump is not Satan. He's not nearly that smart. Kicking Bibles and supporting Trump are peculiar to a form of American Christianity that has lost its way. What is alarming is that one could simultaneously be appalled at Bible kicking and yet safely assume Trump is on their side. But let's be patient since absurdity on these counts seem to have no limit. Before long, Trump will be selling golden bibles with American flag binding. One can only hope.

Now I am not a Trump supported, but ...
Biden openly supports
1. Partial-birth abortion / abortion through 9 months
2. Transgenderism, including the widespread chemical castration of children
3. Identity politics
None of that stuff is compatible with Christianity, and some of it is pure evil
Haley is extremely Hawkish, and has authoritarian tendencies that are even worse than Trump'sThe difference is Trump has had wide support amongst Christians. If you have a problem with Biden, too, fine. I get it. What I don't get is the unfailing support of Trump amongst Christians. Conservative Christians have enough political power to legitimately support someone else. They could support Haley.
