The San Francisco Chronicle ^ | October 3, 2018 | The Associated Press

A massive coalition of U.S. Christian churches attended by 40 million people wants Brett Kavanaugh to withdraw his Supreme Court nomination.

The National Council of Churches says the conservative jurist has "disqualified himself." The group says in a statement that at last week's dramatic Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, he showed "extreme partisan bias," demonstrating he lacks the temperament to join the high court.

The group says Kavanaugh told "outright falsehoods." And it is criticizing his judicial record on voting rights, health care and other issues on which the group has taken liberal-leaning positions.

Kavanaugh is a Roman Catholic who has said religion is an important part of his life. The council does not represent Roman Catholics....

Yet another reason for declining church attendance: they were taken over by Leftist ideologues

“The National Council of Churches”

They represent the Left and Liberal elites in the hierarchy of the member churches and not the silent majority that simply attend church every sunday.

Must not be a Christian church council.

2 Cor 3:1
“Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.”

Deuteronomy 19:5
A solitary witness against someone in any crime, wrongdoing, or in any sort of misdeed that might be done is not sufficient. The decision must stand by two or three witnesses.

And though there are four or five allegations against Kavenaugh, not a single one passes this test.

No Christian who actually accepts the bible as truth would argue that he needs to withdraw.

This is just the fight between the modern gay predator coalition and traditional Catholics, it’s been going on for a while now.

The gay coalition is flying high as they have a Pope on their side.

How about no?

Separation of church and state is looking better by the day.

I’m sure all these so-called “churches” are ravenous abortion lovers. They’re probably also filled with butch “married” lesbian “pastors”, cross-dressing freak “pastors”, etc.

In other words, a bunch of freakish fake Christians.

The "church of Satan" calls for Kavanaugh's withdrawal.

There, fixed the title to better represent the truth.

Spot on. Never even heard of this group but just read this (from 2014): http://www.patheos.com/blogs/geneveith/2014/09/whatever-happened-to-the-national-council-of-churches/

“By the 1990s, the NCC was widely seen as a religious arm of the Democratic Party...”

Consider the source.

the NCC is the commie mole front group to co-opt genuine houses of prayer and faith

the Bible is full of teachings not to bear false witness against innocent people, not to lie, not to slander anyone, and all about the importance of honest judges... which this nominee certainly appears to be

these NCC folks are trashing the teachings of Christian, Catholic, Jewish faith
