Every President Recited The Apostles’ Creed Except Trump, And People Definitely Noticed
Huffington Post ^ | 12/6/2018 | Ed Mazza

People on Twitter are calling out President Donald Trump for failing to recite the Apostles’ Creed at the funeral for former President George H. W. Bush on Wednesday.

Footage from the event shows much of the church, including the former presidents seated with Trump, standing to recite the profession of faith.

And because HuffPo folks are all very religious, they thought this was much more serious than Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota cretin not showing the respect to the flag, or not waring one on his lapel.

Shove it, Huffpo. Up your Obamahole.

Repeatedly.

If President Trump wanted to get the Fake News to discus the tenants of Christianity, how could he possibly do that? Master Troll of the Universe!!

So let me get this straight....

The atheists at the Huffington Post are upset that Trump didn’t recite a prayer?

IIRC, the Roman Catholic Church’s version says “... One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church”

It’s probably that he hasn’t recited it since he was a kid. I don’t think we need to go to the decoder ring for this one.

.
The “Apostles Creed is Satan’s Creed!

It is the creed of the nicolaitans, and nowhere to be found in the scriptures.

Go Trump!

it seeks to establish the Church as of the Apostles versus of Jesus Christ.

I beg to differ. More like the Church of Jesus as passed on through the apostles ... as he commanded them to do.

And if he DID recite it he’d be called a religious nut by the same people.

“Free” churches err seriously by NOT confessing this and the other historic creeds.

“Protestant” churches including C of E and Episcopalian DO confess the creeds.

The word “catholic” in the creed means “universal,” not Roman.

Many recent printings dubiously substitute “Christian” for catholic, in a reactionary move against ignorance, where people fear they are confessing an acceptance of the Roman church.

There you go.

Notice that the Apostles Creed does not have the phrase Roman Catholic Church. Catholic Church is used in the sense of the general Church of all believers even those who feel they are mutually exclusive within the Roman Rite

Trump is in line with Bible teaching:

Matthew 6:7 King James Version (KJV)

7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

TOO MUCH MINDLESS REPETITION in too many Churches.

I don’t get why he and Melanie didn’t read it from the program.

And after reciting it, they won’t lift a finger to stop abortions, after admitting there is a coming judgment.
