If we don't get these issues like immigration, trade, Muslims, etc. right, then nothing else matters. They literally DO. NOT. MATTER. In twenty years, once the Democrats are getting permanent supermajorities, it will not matter. Abortion? You'll never even get a minor rollback again. Gay stuff? You'll never see any of it rolled back. Taxes and fiscal responsibility and free market and all that other stuff? Nada, once you've got all these millions of folks from Latin America and Africa and Asia turned into good little voters for the Democrats.

Bingo!

You seem to have a problem with all Christians, unless you are merely being sarcastic. Try Ephesians 6.

Kenneth Copeland Lays Hands On and Prays Over Donald Trump

Donald Trump Hangs With Christian Prosperity Teachers

Prosperity Gospel Preacher Paula White Prays For Donald Trump

Going back to 2011, Trump has had an association with Paula White. They jointly issued a special invitation to Brian McLaren, an "Emerging Church" false teacher, to meet with them. McLaren's teachings include a heavenly utopia on earth; "re-imagining Christianity"; the unimportance of the atonement of Christ; Christianity is a "little true"; masculine pronouns used to describe God are wrong; Gandhi followed Christ, and other unBiblical doctrines.

(halfway down page)

Paula White, Donald Trump, and Brian McLaren?

carm.org/Brian McLaren

Concerning "Dominionism", it's a leftwing attack on the Christian faith first used by Rachel Maddow in 2011 against Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry.

From this 2011 article:

"There has been great gnashing of teeth in "progressive" circles of late over "Christian Dominionist Theology."

The Dominionist Manifesto

The vile attack we see here on Free Republic is, quite simply, nothing but the very same progressive attempt to attack and deride Ted Cruz's Christian faith to try and prop up progressive Donald Trump.

Finally, about the troll who posted this thread---anyone unfamiliar with him should look up his posting history for a bit of illumination into exactly what he is. You'll find a history replete with name-calling, insults, and profanity.

Ironically, you'll also find him posting on the Religion forum, but---not so ironically---the tone of those particular posts clearly shows a person who is there to use religion as a weapon in order to win arguments. Nothing more.

This is a person who railed that Mark Levin is a stupid chimpanzee, a fraud, and a knuckle-dragging buffoon...because he criticized Trump:

#93

And then there are those Jews who don't do Jewish stereotypes and conspiracy theories any favors:

#18

He is a liberal troll whose rantings should be dismissed out of hand.

Constitutional ones. They solve everything.

Then why do we have all these problems? The Constitution has not protected us from the current resident or his minions.

Nobody votes "against" anything, ever. It's a unicorn.

When you vote "against" a proposition (yay or nay) you are voting for nixing it.

When you vote for a functional Democrat, you are voting for more and bigger government.

My tagline is truth.

The “chimpanzee” thing echoes directly back to the Koranic “apes and pigs”. That would be hardcore antisemitism from my POV.

Because so called conservatives keep electing moderates and liberals because winning is more important than winning with people worth voting for that adhere to the Constitution. If you voted for Romney for example and still defend that idiocy of ‘lesser evil’, you would be part and parcel of why we are in this mess and why we don’t get constitutional people in office.

The theme of this blog is “Christians are Creepy.”

I was originally all in for Cruz. It was precisely his teddy bears and soccer balls approach to the border crisis that gave me pause for thought. I asked fellow conservatives to provide me with the most specific, passionate statement Cruz had made re the flood of foreign invaders, and the murders, rapes, assaults, child moleststions, etc, they were wreaking on the country.

Got called a liar and worse just for asking.

For the record, I was and am looking for earlier, independent statements, not come lately comments made after Trump forced the issue.

"In short, a manic personality in need of treatment."

Very much so.

I could not give a rat's patootie about the religious hair-splitting "Greetings" goes through about Cruz, his father, his dog, his postman and his garbage collector. "Greetings" has previously proven himself to be obsessed with not only his religion, but that of others, and trying to use this forum as a proselytizing platform.

I care only about if the man can lead our country out of the abyss it's been led into by Odungo and return it to its former status as a superpower. I care if he can protect Americans against attack. I care if he can take steps to improve our economy. And I care if he can generally improve the quality of life of the average American.

You have been doing some serious work! Good job exposing the hypocrites and their smear jobs.

Cruz is no more for illegals than Marie lePen is for muslims. Any assertion he is is just propaganda.

This changes absolutely nothing for me. I will still gladly vote for Trump or Cruz.

There are fake Trump/Cruz supporters stirring up Trump vs Cruz nastiness.

You took the bait.
