He’s a cross-dressing pervert pretending to be a Christian pastor. But notice the press doesn’t identify him as anything other than a female minister.

I love how they conveniently leave out that part of the story. But it’s AP so it’s par for the course. until he can find a way to change his DNA, he will always be a man.

Why should atheists care about signing something they don’t believe in?

Of course. All our family bibles had family history. Of course that is not the same as an autograph but I’m still amazed at the meltdown over this. It is another manufactured “crisis”. What bothers me is that a lot of the media was mocking the hard-working volunteers. All the flags here are at half-mast. People are taking those deaths seriously.

Makes the Bibles a better keepsake - add a list of ancestors and other family members and it’s a real gem....

though some are offended and others say he could have handled it differently.

Some people seriously need to chill.

This is ludicrous. Trump is a celebrity. ANY celebrity will sign whatever momento the fan presents for signature. I’m sure there are MANY bibles out there signed by Billy Graham.

I have a small New Testament from the U.S. Government Printing House, with a forward by FDR, issued to troops in the 1940s. Should libs be outraged that the government was printing bibles back then?

I have a copy of that. Decently bound little hardback, but printed on pulpy paper. I picked it up at a garage sale.

"Prepared for use of Protestant personnel of the Army of the United States."

Once belonged to one William E. Calhoun of Ingle, KY, of whom I could find out nothing.

Apparently keeping records of personal or family history in a bible, presumably by writing on the inside cover, was such a common thing at one time, in some part of the US, that it was considered to be reliable information.

Likewise baptismal certificates.

I thought that everyone knew what a "Family Bible" is!

It’s not heresy as long as it’s written below JC’s autograph.

I don’t think I would ask ANY president to sign my Bible, however I have NO PROBLEM with those who want to have it done and will ignore all of the anti-Trump hatred for him doing so.

Some people need to get a grip. I have a friend that prints bibles for a living. I can assure you that God is not there every day writing out the books.

It’s a book. It’s not a relic. I guess, unless Trump signs it.

The Qur'an the book supposed to worshiped and cherished by their followers.
The bible are words in a book their followers.

I can only imagine what "her" sermon is.

"And on the eighth day, God created the transgendered. Now, He doesn't say it's a good thing, but I'm sure He just forgot..."

I would be honored for President Trump to sign my Bible.
