The Archbishop of Canterbury says he doesnt understand why so many Christians in the U.S. support President Donald Trump.
Justin Welby told ITVs Preston on Sunday program that he really genuinely cant comprehend why fundamentalists have provided such a strong base for Trump.
Welby did say he would be willing to attend a state dinner in Trumps honor if the president comes to Britain on an official visit.

Many Christians are also baffled by a so-called christian who supports homosexuality and abortion.

Lol. American Christians attempt to follow the 10 Commandments, not the 10 Suggestions. Lol. Anglican Pharisees.

Yet no doubt he’s not baffled by Christians supporting Democrats.

Justin Welby (I keep wanting to call him Marcus) is trying
to lead a dead church. I was raised in the Anglican faith from birth until I was in my mid-fifties. I imagine I would have left sooner had I belonged to a large church in our diocese but in a small town with scarcely 100 total parishioners, it took longer for the socialist rot to become apparent. I truly hope the Roman church will not suffer the same fate. I was angry, puzzled, sad, and finally decided to find a different place to worship. A group of us became affiliated with a new conservative Anglican church. That still didn't work for me. I'm still looking.

Do tell. The highest clergyman in the kingdom a full fledged pagan priest. Do you have any photos?

Well, there are
several pics of Rowan Williams at his induction into the Gorsedd of Bards. The chief of this organization is called the Archdruid. They try to deny being pagan, though.
