Trump is wrong on men using little girl bathrooms.

And for what it’s worth, the New Testament rejects cross dressing, so it falls under the sexual immortality provision of Acts 15.

I will not support that which I know to be wrong.

And, it’s possible to say that a candidate is wrong in these places but right in these others. Trump’s wrong on this one. So is the media.

Applying absolute criteria on every trivial issue is a great way to insure that no one at all consults your opinion on anything.

Trump isn’t talking about the morality of the issue, but about the political reality of it.

Your position is to focus on rearranging the deck chairs on the sinking Titanic. Saving the country comes first.

Not that many years ago before suddenly "discovering" that he was a "conservative" just in time to run as a "Republican" for POTUS, Trump, as proprietor of the Miss Universe Contest insisted against significant criticism on allowing a "transgender""woman" (read: surgically and hormonally mutilated man) to compete for Miss Universe. Thankfully, it did not win.

Such a concept as "transgendered""woman" may well have been beyond the imagination much less the comprehension of St. Paul, but was well within the imagination and knowledge of Him Who used St. Paul as His scribe.

Pastor, it is indeed true that a candidate may be wrong in some places but right in others. Nonetheless, each of us is responsible for weighing the pertinent factors before casting a morally informed vote.

Note also the recent deviation as to Trump wanting to change the GOP platform to accommodate abortion based on what is euphemistically called "the health of the mother." This phrase has a verrrrry disreputable history in abortion law. BEFORE Roe vs. Wade or anything like it was handed down, in my home state of Connecticut which had a somewhat dominant and still religiously conservative Catholic majority, those lusting to allow the murder of babies used this phrase relentlessly.

It became a loophole through which the disciples of Margaret Sanger could bring about tractor trailer loads of dead babies, each and every killing "legal under the loophole. The language was promoted by the "World Health Organization," a gang of the usual UN suspects, which invented a new "doctors' oath" to replace the traditional Hippocratic Oath by which physicians had sworn not to perform, counsel or facilitate abortions or become sexually involved with patients. The WHO "oath" is modernly silent on such matters. No sense letting morality get in the way of amoral utilitarianism. It turns doctors into mere technicians rather than professionals and healers.

By about 65 years ago, by the adoption of the World Health Organization "doctors' oath, the doctors of allegedly Judaeo-Christian Western Civilization eagerly dove below the moral standards of an admittedly moral ancient pagan Hippocrates.

Charitably speaking, perhaps Trump is merely ignorant. He has obviously not a passing acquaintance with either the pro-life movement or other aspects of social conservatism. He does not know the words. He does not know the music. He does not hold the principles. He does not even care to spend a little time to learn how to competently address these issues to social conservatives. Will he improve if or when he is sworn in as POTUS or can we look forward to a series of "whoopsies" not only on policy but as appointments to the SCOTUS and other federal courts in the mold of John Paul Stevens, David Souter, William Brennan, Herod Blackmun, "Republican appointments one and all?

You and I are in disagreement on this POTUS nomination but my respect for you will ever be undiminished.

May God continue to bless you and yours!

Yes he is wrong on this issue but unlike every other candidate in the race he is not a globalist and he will build the wall and enforce the law. For that alone he deserves my vote. The insanity of letting men into ladies bathroom, locker rooms and showers will become apparent soon enough.
