Lots of non-religious people are hypocrites too. Why don't you just say, “lots of people”.

Because I was focusing on religious hypocrisy in that post. Lots of non-religious people are hypocrites in other ways.

My other choice, then, is to not vote at all. In that case, I suppose that would exclude me from the hypocrisy tag. Nice.

I'm actually a pretty nice guy. Is it me you have disdain for, or the fact that I support that other guy? At any rate, we all have our beliefs/opinions. It's really unbecoming of you to call me out at every corner.

lol...sorry, but I have no more time to spend on batting practice tonight.
 
Read there is initial evidence COVID-19 does have harmful effects on early fetal development. We might not know the extent for a while.

So... force sick women to carry pregnancy against their will, give birth to children with birth defects, and take away their health insurance. The Trump/ABM misogyny trifecta.

It's up to you whether you support a candidate that violates nearly everything "being a Christian" is supposed to mean.

Just like that old question, "Do you put party over country?" it's up to you whether you put party over your supposed religious beliefs.

I'm not here to tell you what you should do or what standards you should hold.

My daughter is 8 months preg, where did you read that it does effect fetal development. Concerned grandpa.

Again, my alternative choice is no vote at all. Other than that, I'm a hypocrite in supporting Trump, correct?

I've read that covid19 aside from being a killer is that it can also cause lung and heart damage to survivors...chest x-rays show spots that kinda look like broken pieces of glass which are actually the areas of the lung that no longer function.

As a libertarian and a follower of Christ, I find your post curious. Since being President, how exactly has the President violated everything Christian?
Can you really back up this assertion?

Yeah, my Son and his wife are expecting their 3rd child in July and needless to say, they're concerned. But I've read about some babies being born with the virus that have survived...but hey, who knows what is factual anymore...there seems to be as much misinformation out there as there is useful information.

Im a Christian, this is my thoughts.
I generally dont like Trump. I think he’s an egomaniac, I think he’s all about himself. I think his political views are solely based on what he thinks his base will want. To me he is a very immoral character and honestly Im confused why so many “evangelicals” like him the way they do. I think its important if we’re going to tie Christ name to our selves, our leaders, to anyone that the least we and they should be attempting to live a Christian life. I think the thing in life that bothers me the most are Christians or those who claim it who DONT live that way. I think there is no greater hindrance to the spread of the Gospel, then those type of people. I also think if someone is going to claim their a Christian then it does open them up to us “judging” them (in terms of their “christian” characteristics), and saying wait if you’re a christian why are you acting like this. It bothers me that Trump claims it and I have seen nothing in his presidency that leads me to believe he loves anyone but himself, and how much hate does he spew...? A lot.

Well you offered nothing more than the yankee. Nothing that the man has actually done that would violate the teachings of Jesus. Just your feeling. Yankee give you a like though.

No I offered a lot. What are the two commandments Jesus boiled them all down too, Love the Lord your God and Love your neighbor. Trump claims christianity and shows no love for either.

I am sorry you can not see or feel this is in error. Thankfully many people do.
 
Just go through a list of the 10 commandments and ask yourself if he has violated them. At least 7 of them are easily answered yes, unequivocally by his own actions and words. I don't need to spell everything out for you.

And Trump fails ridiculously at everything taught in the new testament as well. Whether words from Jesus at the Sermon on the Mount, or the various beatitudes taught by his disciples, Trump's character, words, and actions are in direct opposition.

I don't have time to force feed you. Think for yourself. And if you can't see what is plainly obvious, then I really can't help elucidate you to reality. @Leroylib

Yes Trumps twitter account and self-loving press conferences certainly come across a guy that truly loves others before himself.

Maybe instead of asking how has he tore down Christian morals, you should ask has he actually shown any? Christ said turn the other cheek, Trump says nah I’ll show them.

Just going from my early upbringing and being a church-goer in my adolescence, I'm trying to figure out which of the 10 Commandments that Trump has not broken...very short list.

Yes! Very true about turning the other cheek. Nice to see Republicans give that one up.
