‘GOD DOESN’T HAVE A POLITICAL PARTY’
Appearing as the nightcap for CNN's five-part Town Hall segment on Monday, 2020 presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg addressed concerns over his lack of political experience, his age and his views on how faith can be used to unite Christians from all political spectrums.
Buttigieg, who is the current mayor of South Bend, Indiana, talked about his faith at the end of the hour-long question and answer session.
"You've talked opening about your strong Christian faith, as well as your identity as a happily-married gay man. I myself am a bi-sexual Christian woman," Harvard freshman Camille Caldera told Buttigieg. "How will you challenge the right's moral-monopoly on Christianity to unite conservative, moderate and liberal Christians alike behind you and your platform?"
Buttigieg responded to say that he felt the core of his faith is "regard for one another" and that in the tradition of his faith — the Democrat is a practicing Episcopalian — is "in the way we support one another, and in particular support the least among us."
Buttigieg added that he is a strong proponent of the separation of church and state.

USA Today is actually leading this charge. An opinion column there today (which we can't post here) says this:
"Buttigieg is what I’d call 'the new gay' — an old-fashioned Midwesterner cut into a decidedly modern mold — with an authenticity that’s scarce in politics these days. In a recent interview in Vanity Fair, Charles Kaiser, acting director of the LGBT Social Science & Public Policy Center at Hunter College, called him 'a happily married, monogamous intellectual who … thinks very seriously about all the issues of our time. And realizes that climate change is more important than everything else.'"
>>GOD DOESN’T HAVE A POLITICAL PARTY
Satan does.
Pete needs to go into a closet.
He will never be president.
No Queers allowed
Dream on, Sodomite.
lol
Yeah a guy that is “married” to a guy is gonna unite Christians.
That makes sense.
This is all about the satanic lie on “UNITY.” Can’t we all just get along? I like to remind people that unity for the sake of unity can be satanic! Remember that the tower of Babel was built on a spirit of unity! Being unified in a church body does not mean you are being “Christian.” You weigh your unity against the whole scriptures. Keep in mind that Jesus taught from the Law and Prophets. How did Jesus ever teach from the scrolls and not teach about the abomination of male to male sex?? He did and to say otherwise is a lie. Buttgig is like a huckster selling his magic potion to anyone who will buy it. It is poison! Don’t buy it!
Christians live their lives directed by the Bible, God’s Word. God’s Word calls homosexual behavio “an abomination” to God. There certainly is no recognition whatsoever of marriage as anything other than being between a man and a woman as God instituted it in Eden.
No one should be fooled by people who talk the talk but do not walk the walk. “Be not deceived. God will not be mocked.”
When “mayor Pete” is the Dem 2020 VP candidate, he’ll unite (real) Christians behind Mike Pence, and of course Trump. Many, many doctrine differences will seem so small.

He seems to me to be well within the mainstream of the Episcopal Church. The Church of the Rainbow and the bloody scalpel.
Unity is to the US Democrats what Harmony is to the Chinese Communist.
A foil to defuse descent
He apparently never has read John 8:11.
Or he just doesn’t like the part about Jesus saying something about “Go now and leave your life of sin”.
Or maybe he has one of the newer Bible translations out of San Francisco that has Jesus really saying, “then neither do I condemn you, go now, and if it feels good, do it”
Yes, unite Christians to vote against this Communist-raised Satanist Sodomite.
Isaiah 5:20 Woe is Pete Buttigieg.
Some moron wrote our local rag on Sunday whining how Jesus never spoke about homosexuality in the bible (as if that was somehow “proof” that Jesus was A-OK with sodomy). Apparently moron missed the part where Jesus’s Dad spoke about it.
Well not so much. You have two huge strikes against you Pete. One your politics are the wrong direction for America and your religious view is wrong for Christians and all human beings!
Homo sex is a sin. Its not gay and its not okay. God did not say this sin was wrong until such time as a large group in society believe it is okay. God will not be mocked.
The mentally ill should not have nuclear weapons, it’s just geo-political common sense...
Are you saying the mistake of Barry's election will not be repeated?
I can find no unity with people that say they can continue doing something, even celebrate it, in contradiction to God’s word and then call it marriage as a direct insult to the God that loves them. This is in part at least some of the strong delusion that the word says would come. I cannot judge them it is not my place. Many of them good hearted people with poor teaching. Maybe we all need to take the saying “work out your salvation with fear and trembling” a bit more seriously.
