That basically, Trump is creating a new Republican coalition minus the moral issues like opposition to homosexuality.

Freedom of religion for Sharia compliant Muslims is unacceptable because Sharia declares itself above all else, even the Constitution.

The rest is left for you to figure out.

“every member of congress and obviously Hillary”

Absolutely, THIS is the glue that holds the Uniparty together, and AGAINST US.

“It was caused by a bunch of ‘yabbadabbadoos’ who Twitter bombed him.”

For Milo’s speech in Orlando, Skip to 12:00. Here is the direct link to where his speech begins:

He hits it out of the park on Islam.

( NSFW, though...)

It is not the job of the State to police individual morality. The left is doing plenty of that right now. (Try to have a cigarette in your own apartment in California)

It is OUR job - the job of the people - to set local standards and to educate our fellow man on those issues.

We must continue to prove that abortion is not a victimless crime. That rampant sexuality harms everyone. That homosexuality should not be encouraged by the State and that homosexual education has NO place in our schools.

That’s *our* job.

I’m going to tell you right now that there are people who will disapprove of certain aspects of MY lifestyle on moral grounds. I carry a gun. I homeschooled our children. I brew my own alcohol. I actually *drink* alcohol! I smoke cigarettes. I declawed my indoor cats. I *have* pets. I eat meat. I don’t cover my hair. I cuss. I use air conditioning. I wear fur and leather. I hunt. I (very occasionally) use marijuana for pain relief.

There are entire lobbying groups who are fighting every one of the things listed above.

On “moral” grounds.

What I object to most strongly are groups who want to teach THEIR morality to children that don’t belong to them.

The state can curtail abortion because it is murder. The state can educate on the grounds of public health to fight disease - but they do the opposite and encourage practices that spread disease.

But that’s about the limit of the State’s job.

You don’t like homosexuality? Then YOU preach it from the rooftops.

I preach homosexual monogamy because I honestly don’t believe that gays are going to change their ways and that it’s actually promiscuity that causes other people problems. (I don’t want to have to fight drug-resistant disease or pay for an AIDS epidemic with my tax dollars)

This is the same thing that I preach to young women and girls. Sex is great. Keep it between you and your partner. Period.

My husband and I have saved several babies from abortion by honestly offering to adopt the child. (Every mother has had a change of heart toward the end)

WE need to fix the morality problem in our country and stop expecting the government to do our jobs.

Otherwise, we become leftists. And nobody wants that.

>But no Christian can ever blithely agree to an America that accepts Sodomism as a given.

Religion is not a prerequisite for being a good American. And other than islam, there are other religions and beliefs.

I saw him say that as well. I don’t think it’s quite ramend his statement. If I read Trumpism correctly, it’s more calling for some measure of “live and let live” on social issues. Trump frequently defaults to federalism as his answer to sticky social issues, and he’s clearly not on a moral crusade to try to enforce traditional Christian values on to the whole population. On the hand, however, he’s willing to lead the charge against the Left’s attempt to enforce it’s worldview on everyone else, for example, by banning public mentions of Christmas, or ignoring the slaughter of Christians in the Middle East. And I do think that he’s “seen the light” on the question of life.

It’s certainly more of a social issue “truce” as compared to say Ted Cruz, but I think the reason that a lot of social conservatives still voted for Trump is the realization that without a full frontal assault on political correctness,a full-throated defense of America and our way of life, a full and genuine commitment to defend our borders, all of those issues will be rendered moot because “we won’t have a country anymore”. I would tend to agree.

It’s time to create an uncensored alternative to twitter.

Actually there is. It's called IRC (Internet Relay Chat) and it can be accessed using a program called mIRC. There are several IRC networks, each with numerous 'channels' or chat areas. However, be forewarned: 1) It is TOTALLLY uncensored so you may see things that will shock your sensibilities, 2) It will become addictive, 3) It becomes a time 'Black Hole' where you can spend hours without realizing it (had to quit because of that), and 4) You leave your computer open to possible hack/Trojan attacks. Other than that I had a great time on IRC.

You have to change hearts before you can change laws.

Why do you think sodomy was called, for hundreds of years in English law, the "crime against nature"? Was it because it violated a religious precept, or because it violated the natural law?

And are not our Declaration, our Constitution, and our entire founding principles not predicated on that very same idea that, irrespective of religion, there is a Moral Law that nature has given us?

Well said. I agree with that as well.

We should just be wary of getting too comfortable with our lot under a Trump administration, is all. We may end up having to push him into areas he doesn't want to go--perhaps even outright oppose him.

Frankly, we weren't going to get any better deal out of the establishment GOP anyway, so it's a net wash as far as I'm concerned.

I’m generally pretty moderate on social issues myself, so I’m more or less happy with it. The issue of abortion is the one social issue that I agree should be non-negotiable, and I happen to believe that eventually, it will be seen as murder, and Roe v. Wade will look like the Dred Scott decision. But I absolutely support the side of it that talks about religious liberty, that Leftist/secularism should not be forced down the throats of people and communities who don’t want it.
