Chelsea Clinton: It's 'insulting' when people question my family's faith
Washington Times ^ | Feb 9, 2016 | Jessica Chasmar

Chelsea Clinton said God and religion guides so much of her mother's "moral compass" that she can't help but feel insulted when people question her family's faith.

"My mother is very deeply a person of faith," Ms. Clinton, the only child of former President Bill Clinton and Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton, said at a recent fundraiser, the New York Post reported.

"It is deeply authentic and real for my mother, and it guides so much of her moral compass, but also her life's work," the 35-year-old added.

Hillary was raised as a Methodist, Bill grew up as a Baptist, and Chelsea's husband, Marc Mezvinsky, is Jewish. Chelsea explained that her family's religious diversity doesn't diminish their commitment to God, the New York Post reported.

"I find it quite insulting sometimes when people say to my mom, my dad or me … that they question our faith," she said. "I was raised in a Methodist church and I left the Baptist church before my dad did, because I didn't know why they were talking to me about abortion when I was 6 in Sunday school - that's a true story."

"I recognized that there were many expressions of faith that I don't agree with and feel [are] quite antithetical to how I read the Bible," she said. "But I find it really challenging when people who are self-professed liberals kind of look askance at my family's history."

Yes, her mother’s “Christian Faith” was so intense, she had a Moslem prayer room set up in the WH.

These Clintons cannot talk without lying about everything.

Nobody should question the Clinton’s Satanic faith.

And her god is green and she doesn't mind if he prayers are answered with suitcases of small bills but prefers a $600k wire transfer as long as there's an accompanying BS speaking job she can show the IRS & FBI to explain it it.

That depends on the meaning of “shall” and “not”.

To be fair, the Clintons are a family of profound faith. They are Satanists.

The Clinton scion confuses faith with spirituality.

**It is deeply authentic and real for my mother**

“Real for my mother”? What kind of relativistic nonsense is that? Some people hear voices and it is real for them. Does that make it any more real?

Another one for the ICW (the Incredible Clintonian Whopper file.)

This is such a red herring.

Of the ten thousand things I could be critical about Hillary, dredging up whatever her religious beliefs and practices are would land at about #9,872.

It appears that Chelsea’s a bald-faced liar, just like her parents.

Whenever someone describes themselves as a “person of faith,” you can be pretty sure they are full of it. Right up there with “spiritual, but not religious.”

If you have to profess your faith through you spawn, you have none.

It is through her works that we know the Colossus.

She is an atheist and worse yet a greedy narcissist.
