I would not make such a claim.

I certainly don't make that claim, either. What, or who, gave you that impression?

Of the reasons I've read to vote for Trump, I have not read of a Christian reason. The majority of people fall back to "we can't let Hillary win."

Okaaaaaaaaaay...

And let's use the same wording towards your Dem party.

Anyone.
Convince me again.
Remind me of WHY this Christian is only a real Christian by casting my vote for (Anyone in the DNC but who just presently happens to be HRC).

Jermyn, you have two bad apples, both evil people. But.... HRC is a really evil person heading a party that is so adamantly against Christian principles that it is impossible to vote that ticket.

Abortion, homosexuality, socialism, lying, deception.....

ah, got it. Because if you are going to vote anyway, the Christian vote should at least set things on their ear :lol

Nope, Trump is another selfish person.

But, you are trying to use the argument of Christianity to justify not voting for Trump and for voting for HRC. That is a flawed argument because both the DNC and HRC are for the very things that you say you stand against.

A Response to Dr. Wayne Grudem’s Endorsement of Donald Trump

I respect the good doctor immensely and agree with his opening remarks that Christian people will disagree and yet must find ways to respect each other in that discussion. That being said, I am completely surprised and to a degree disappointed that this is where the conservative, Biblical, theologian has landed. Especially when he has advocated theological positions through the years which have unapologetically upheld the standard of God’s Word against what is theologically popular or trendy.

and trump, the Republican, is not evil.



Tell me, are there different levels of lost-ness?

Am I somehow a better Christian by voting for trump?

And the problem with your post, Bird Dog, is that NO ONE on AFF has ever made the argument that you have tried to make. Therefore, it doesn't work for this discussion. :)


However, I know of at least 5 AFF'ers who, if it were possible, would have physically beat me into submission into voting Republican as the Christian thing to do, last election.


Politics can make hypocrites of real Christians-- that is my point.

I am convinced that the trump candidacy is the Will of God, designed to show the Christians of the "American Religious Right" just how silly of a concoction they have developed.

A people so drunk on their political religion that they will vote for trump, "in Jesus Name".

I'd weep, if it wasn't for SO MANY OF the zealots of the American Religious Right who are so nasty towards the other Americans that disagree with them.

What do Christians do about their leaders in China? Russia? Zimbabwe? Saudi Arabia? Christian voters that expect perfection from their candidates are foolhardy. But if you vote on specific issues---abortion; traditional marriage; freedom of religion; et al you'd probably be better off with Trump.
