So George Washington and the rest of our creationist founding fathers did not deserve to hold office?

...and we care what this putz thinks...why?
So we should vote for a guy who hides his muslim religion? Yeah look how that worked out.
The founders specifically banned a religious test for office, even if it is a test for Humanism.
Can I say as a Jew, for him to speak at Liberty University in front of those students, the born-again evangelicals, they kind of believe that if we don’t accept Christ, if I dont accept Christ into my life, I’m going hell. So its not really a place for me to jump in and go, Oh boy! What a great candidate! I cut out 90 percent of what he said. He believes Im going to hell, so what are we talking about?
He seems awfully concerned about what others think of his eternal destination, instead of what God says about it.
So they basically have to announce that anybody believing in The Bible, either Old or New Testament, IS NOT ALLOWED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT. This is what it comes down to - if you’re a God fearing Christian or Jew, you are disqualified from running for president. Naturally, that would also apply for Senators, Governors, any public office.
Yeah, ‘cause atheists in politics have done such a GREAT job of creating humane, prosperous and free societies over the last 100 years.
[HOLMES: What Im saying is, I think we need to have a little bit more respect at this table and in politics for people who are evangelical, who believe in creationism, and believe in a Biblically based life.
This call for respect amazingly drew boos from the audience.]
SOUNDS FAMILIAR...

How is this issue relevant to being POTUS?
Another Hispanophobe...
I can’t begin to imagine how really ugly this is going to get if it’s this bad now.
Somebody who believes God made us should not be president?
I’m not voting for a scientist, I’ll be voting for a President.
What does belief, or disbelief, in creationism, or global warming, or a hollow Earth, have to do with ability to govern, if this belief does not impact upon daily judgment?
Now, if a belief in some idiosyncrasy is, in and of itself, so overwhelming that it approaches psychosis, then it may be a limiting factor in being able to function in today’s world.
I point to Al Gore, who does not even use replicable reasoning while arriving at his conclusions on the cause and course of “climate change”. The “cure” he calls for is to limit human behavior through regulation or taxation. And maybe a huge die-back of the human population.
Ted Cruz differs from this degree of commitment to an article of faith. Belief in creationism does not lead to heavier regulations or higher taxes.
The long knives are already coming out.
