Karen Pence, the wife of America's vice president, Mike Pence will be teaching art at a Christian school in Virginia that bans LGBTQ children and requires employees to declare their religious beliefs. Like a real-life setting for "The Handmaid's Tale," Immanuel Christian School insists applicants initial a pledge to "live a personal life of moral purity."
Listen to what else the pledge says: "I understand that the term 'marriage' has only one meaning; the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive covenant union as delineated in Scripture." It asserts that God intended sexual acts only between "a man and a woman who are married to each other." It identifies "moral misconduct" that would disqualify employees as premarital sex, cohabitation, extramarital sex, homosexual or lesbian sexual activity, polygamy, transgender identity, any other violation of the unique roles of male and female." This language is disgusting and insults millions of taxpaying American citizens, many who have served their country. That it is acceptable to the wife of the man who is a heartbeat away from the presidency should horrify and alarm all Americans.
Karen and Mike Pence are conservative, evangelical Christians who share beliefs about religion and politics. They have every right to do this. ("It's absurd that her decision to teach art to children at a Christian school, and the school's religious beliefs, are under attack," said Kara Brooks, a spokeswoman for Pence.) But consider Mike Pence's position of power in this country: He regularly stands shoulder to shoulder with his boss, Donald Trump. He has access to and can influence a President who is very interested in maintaining support among evangelicals.

“This language is disgusting”
Only to deviants and perverts, Clay. Deal with it—millions of people are disgusted with the abnormal, unnatural sexual proclivities of the LHBQTXYZ zoo people who want to force others to accept sexual deviancy and perversion as normal. It’s not.
bttt
...a wise Arab over a foolish Christian. Or something like that.
Tired of this Handmaid’s tale balderdash.
There is a religion that requires women to wear tent-like garments. It isn’t Christianity.
There is a religion that considers women to be chattle. It isn’t Christianity.
I could go on, but you get the drift.
I don’t want to take morality instructions from a pillow biting racialist.
Actually, Democrats are very high on moral purity — it’s just a different take on morality - don’t say anything to upset minorities or oddballs, lying and stealing are fine if done in the service of the party, don’t get caught fondling little boys - rather than traditional moral values such as fidelity, truthfulness, loyalty - such bourgeois piffle only gets in their way on the road to power.....
if they were the only place I could find news about anything, I still would not watch. listen, read, or believe ANYTHING they produce. And that is the TRUTH.
More like we aren’t interested in people discussing how many sexes exist out there and other dumb things.
Well maybe the fact that Pence works with Trump, a man who doesn’t share his values, says that he most likely has nothing wrong with gay people.
THOSE MONSTERS! Can you even imagine them believing something that has been taken for granted for over two thousand years or more and then pledging that it is true and good! They should be sent to a reeducation camp immediately along with those heretic feminists who espouse the ridiculous notion that men can't become women at will and those privileged white people that think they can become black at will!
No, what I was poorly making a point about was, this fruity loop is afraid of Christianity, but not of Islam.
In essence he says I FEAR THE AGENDA OF A CHRISTIAN.
On the other hand, you KNOW, he welcomes all Muslims and accepts their customs.
Jesus was taunted by the religious purists for associating with sinners. And the article is a critique of Pence, not Trump, and Pence is mocked because he’s supposedly a clean-living prude.
