Here, you have a well-known former official giving credence to the idea that God appointed Trump to the presidency.
This was incredibly dangerous on the part of Nikki Haley because it gives credence to Trump's cult of personality, something that is now costing lives as people listen to the president over public health officials.
I learned that religion is more than a day trip. It is human nature self-preservation seeking something; therefore, you find it because you want understanding or self-inflection. It gave me empathy, learned to be humble, and how to see good in everyone.
And I am inviting every liberal Christian to stand up for the rights of others, poor, sick and hungry. My belief is that God has given us Free Will the paths that he lays out and we have the option to choose it. These radical evangelicals want to force us down “their path”. God does not work that way. We purge these Zealots from our government. This ideology is being politicalized and amplified by corporate intertest and forever changing what Christian beliefs mean. We are losing generations to this strife some that are being mislead and others that are completely repelled by these radical ideologies.
Recently, close relative that insinuated that I could not be Christian and liberal at the same time. It has spurred some shared thoughts with whomever reads this. I have spent a lot of time considering what it means to be Christian in this time of rhetoric disinformation, radical Christian Extremism and the rightwing supporting divisions in our society. For the record I am a scientist very empirical and data driven. And I want my message to very clear that if we continue to allow these radical religious extremists to gain political control. They will change the United States and Christianity.
Kings used to say this same thing, that they were entitled to rule their Kingdom's by sacred investment of God's "Divine Right." Of course, this country was founded on principles inapposite to that doctrine. I seem to remember it being one of the reasons we declared our independence from England. Then again, what do I know?
If God sent us Trump it is because HE has turned his back on us.
You have absolutely know idea what God is thinking.
This is a secular nation. To speak of an unsubstantiated gawd is delusional, infantile and irresponsible.
This is the same woman who, on the campaign trail, stated that der Drumpfenfuhrer does and says things she doesn't allow her children to do or say.
She's a hypocrite.
They're ALL hypocrites.
