At the New Beginnings Church in Irving, Texas, in August 2012, Cruz delivered a sermon where he described his son’s senatorial campaign as taking place within a context where Christian “kings” were anointed to preside over an “end-time transfer of wealth” from wicked people to the righteous. Cruz urged the congregation to “tithe mightily” to achieve that result. During an interview conducted by the Christian Post in 2014, Cruz stated, “I think we cannot separate politics and religion; they are interrelated. They’ve always been interrelated.” Salon described Cruz as a “Dominionist, devoted to a movement that finds in Genesis a mandate that ‘men of faith’ seize control of public institutions and govern by biblical principle.”

Interesting. Well, I liked what he said in that interview, but clear thinking realizes that the Constitution as written and originally understood and intended basically creates the feds and then delegates limited powers to the feds - no religion involved in the Constitution. Religion is outside the purview of the feds - none of the feds business.

This stuff isn’t that complicated. Why do so many get it wrong?
