This is the second or third time I’ve seen Trump accused of ‘’not being real big on the Constitution’’ or a paraphrase of that. Do you have a citation that proves this claim?

Seriously. I’d like to see it/ some.

That is between Trump and God. NO ONE else. It is abhorrent that anyone who calls themselves a Christian would go there.

This is just stupid. I’m not a Trump supporter, but the charge is ridiculous.

Huckabee said that Cruz is not a Christian. Like I care what Huck-A-Bee and Yeb say.

What fruit could be more putrid than the murder of Terri Schiavo? Jeb Bush would do well to look at his own life and his stewardship of Florida as governor before questioning the faith of others.

And, personally, I do not see any putrid fruit from Donald Trump. Granted, he was not very successful in the marriage department in years past, but it appears his ex-wives do not hate him and his children seem to have turned out very well. He is a tough successful businessman but appears to me that his businesses have employed a lot of people. I just do not see that putrid fruit you speak of -— for any of the GOP candidates — except Jeb Bush, whose role model appears to be Pontius Pilate.

On the other hand, I have a cousin who was extremely religious, lots of church, bible reading, church activities, home schooling, etc. Every last one of the children, now grown up, wants nothing to do with Christianity.

Remember, too, that the Prophet Samuel’s sons did not reflect his godliness! In fact, quite the opposite!

I guess where you missed Trump questioning the religion of Ben Carson, and suggesting that Cruz (because he’s Cuban) might not be an evangelical.

Trump shouldn’t have done it, either. A person’s faith should be OFF LIMITS. Period.

One word to Jeb about Christianity - Terri.

“Remember, too, that the Prophet Samuel’s sons did not reflect his godliness! In fact, quite the opposite!”

I fully concur. It’s not the usual pattern, however.

But again, it’s not particularly relevant to me.

Trump’s liberalism covered by being a blow hard is.

He’s basically a belligerent Romney.

Well a Christian is someone who among other things, has asked God for forgiveness (and would be very quick to say so), so Jeb is correct.

——Well maybe in a cultural sense, as in “Do unto others, as you——” no he wouldn’t qualify that way either.

Then again, maybe Trump is sinless. Maybe he’s the Second Coming, a lot of his followers seem to think something along those lines (2016 is a lot like 2008, except in 2008, the peoples’ messiah came riding a donkey, apparently this time he’s on an elephant).

"Reagan never went to church on Sundays while in office."

Sitting Presidents rarely do, it's far too disruptive to church services to have the Secret Service crawling all over the church.

Church attendance for Presidents has usually been for show. Which is a violation of the New Testament mandate to NOT make a show of it.

Reagan spoke publicly and eloquently (and humbly, which would probably cause Donald to choke) of his personal faith in Christ on numerous occasions.

It's a good excuse to avoid Church. Did Reagan ever say that?

I agree. Now tell that to the tinfoil hat wearers pratting about Ted Cruz and "Seven Mountains Theology" or something like that.

That is disingenuous, Hank. It’s clear- especially from Raul Cruz, Sr, that Cruz’s owners & supporters that the plan is for Cruz to alter the government according to this heresy. It’s all out there in the public domain.

If Cruz wanted to keep his faith to himself, no one would have the right to question him about it. He is the one bringing it up every time he speaks. As are his supporters.

Don’t you hear the response/ reaction?

If you look back to medieval times up through even the 19th century, the large estates had private chapels. Doesn’t the WH have a chapel & why isn’t there a clergyman to serve the first family? There should be, imho.
