Conservatives have this twisted alacrity to throw their own people overboard.

It’s really stupid and libs exploit that to the max.

Interesting that World Magazine decides to do a takedown of D'Souza, the director of 2016, just three weeks before the election.

This public back and forth should have been postponed until after the election. It is being fanned by the Obama gang to attack Christians.

Still married and engaged to another woman.

I think we can remove ‘discerning’ from the quick-facts paragraph in Mr D’Souza’s resume.

2016 comes out a while back, and now, all of a sudden, this stuff comes out. What a coinky-dink!

"I mean I certainly would think that if you've been in conservative evangelical circles ... that you would, at some point, kind of pick up on the idea that announcing an engagement to a woman when you are still legally married to another woman would be a problem."

You would think so.

and can they stop calling the woman "Joseph" for crying out loud!

Didn't this guy date Ann Coulter years ago?

Sometimes these conservative couples are really kind of strange.

I don’t really know why I should care any more about this guy’s private life than any other person’s... but from reading this, it sounds like he’s openly planning to commit adultery even if he isn’t committing it already.

He’s a smart guy. He should have known better than to show up with his girlfriend to a christian conference on “ defending the faith and applying a Christian worldview to their lives”, less than 3 weeks from the election.

Just stupid.

After straightforward saying that World Magazine was incorrect in their reporting, attributed a libelous quote to him he never made, and opted not to include the fact that he’d been separated from his wife for two years even though he’d told that to the reporter, Warren Smith, directly, Dinesh gets down to what really appears to be behind the story:

“Marvin Olasky, the editor of World, is the former provost of the King’s College. Olasky was on the search committee when I interviewed to be president, and he vehemently opposed my candidacy. Olasky publicly admitted that he was resigning his position as a consequence of my appointment. The reporter who wrote this story, Warren Smith, also used to work as a consultant for King’s until I decided not to renew his contract. And what was Olasky’s gripe against me? As he put it, I was seeking to make King’s a non-denominational “mere Christianity college” in the image of C.S. Lewis. This for Olasky was simply intolerable. Having nursed his grievance for two years, now apparently Olasky is using World to continue his vendetta.”

I met Denise three months ago.

And she's already his "fiancee"? I thought mature people were able to delay gratification. I hope she's worth all the trouble.

None of this changes the facts of 2016. Libs are pointing, ‘Look, look what he has done!’ I’m not looking!

61 posted on Fri Oct 19 2012 10:40:41 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) by ican’tbelieveit: “Whether he actually slept with her is irrelevant, the appearance of impropriety is all it takes to lessen his effectiveness. We should demand and hold accountable those that represent us in the public arena. I had a pastor years ago that never closed the door to his office if he had a woman in there and his wife wasn’t present. That same lesson should be taken to everyone of our lives, not matter how private or public.”

62 posted on Fri Oct 19 2012 12:20:44 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) by rmlew: “D’Souza slept in the same room as his fiance. Does it prove infidelity? No. But appearances matter and he was broadcasting adultery.”

Sadly, ican’tbelieveit and rmlew are absolutely right. And yes, Gaijin is also right about Alinsky's methods of forcing his opponents to play by their rules while not following them himself.

Liberals who don't believe in morality can get away with things like this. We can't.

And we shouldn't try.

Let's try to put the best possible face on this. Let's say Dinesh D’Souza is in a horrible marriage and has biblical grounds for divorce, and on top of that, his wife is insisting on the separation.

Okay, so why isn't he doing everything he can to avoid appearances of impropriety? He was a Christian college president. He was in a position of very public leadership in the political campaign attacking the president of the United States.

Whether D’Souza fell into the sin of adultery or not, I don't know.

But he sure opened the door to temptation.

Satan looks for opportunities and it sure looks like he found the weak chink in D’Souza’s armor.

“I had no idea that it is considered wrong in Christian circles to be engaged prior to being divorced, even though in a state of separation and in divorce proceedings,” said D’Souza.

Mr. D’Souza is a fallen-away Catholic. It's reasonable to think that he's not entirely familiar with evangelical Protestant culture.

As a Catholic, it didn't occur to me that it would be objectionable to Protestants for someone to become engaged after two years of separation, but before divorce. If you're okay with divorce, it seems like a quibble to me.

For us Catholics, short of obtaining a declaration of nullity (not as easy as some folks think, although perhaps easier than it should be), divorce and remarriage mean a choice between a new “marriage” and the Church. So, whether you get engaged before, during, or after the divorce, it's all catastrophic, if one has been a devout Catholic.

To me, it looks like his enemies have decided to bring him down, justly or not.
