If up to his bud Shister Sharpton or
Communist Hater of America Louis Farrakhan. Wow we need to Wake up America. Enough already. Been down this road with Obama and his bud, the so-called Reverend Wright!

[Let's Roll]

Let’s hope so. Way too soft to lead this country in these perilous times.

As far as I know Trump has yet to run an add in Iowa. Plenty of adds have been run against him.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Because the RINO Establishment likes everything status quo. Besides, IA has only picked the eventual nominee 2 times in the last 6 elections. To its credit, it chose Santorum over Zero’s Ringer, Willard in 2012. Even if Dr. Carson narrowly beats Trump there, Trump is ahead virtually everywhere else.

Simple answer is no

I’m am Assembly of God, just under Pentecostal,and I don’t know what they really are. This is what google turns up. Looks like a cult to me. Reminds me of that group that goes door to door peddling their cult, I can’t even remember their name.

If they get to bad I put up a sign saying Assembly of God don’t waste your time.

I don’t think Carson can take out Trump, but it is quite possible that Trump takes out Trump (as many have said).

I get knocks on the door from somebody but i usually yell from the couch “who is it” and when they say something religious i yell “no thank you” lol

Trump Leads Above them All.
No Guts ,No Glory! ;)

Now I remember Jehovah’s Witness, pest, hard to get rid of.

I say shake it up. A new state every time. Based on population, or admission into the Union, or a lottery each cycle.

The Evangelicals wouldn't have a Mormon, but this is ok. Just off the top of my head, the movement started in England or Scotland. Their prophetess was Ellen G. White.

They do believe in the end times. They also observe Saturday as the Sabbath and are generally vegan. I don't know what they believe concerning Our Lord Jesus Christ.

I remember when I was troubled by things that went on in the Charismatic Movement. There was an SDA reporter who wrote a really sensible book against it. It did help me but I can't remember the title, probably still have the book somewhere.

Not fairly but then elections aren’t run fairly.

A FReeper tried to break down most of the Christian sects in the country but I didn’t even know there were different Catholic sects and I’m Catholic lol.

I need to either buy a book or find a good objective website, more historical and factual than taking an opinion so I can decide who’s who and what’s what.

Thanks for the reply :)

[GailA]

I can always use the excuse of the 2 dogs and hearing aids. LOL.

Cruz looks to be the strongest conservative, but I want to know who the VP is going to be.

I don’t donate to the RNC, hope they go bankrupt backing the RINOS.

[dp0622]

me too! :)

STILL dont trust the Bushes, even if jeb leaves. they will try to pull something. I guess back the next rino in line. First it was Rubio, then Fiorina, now its Ben.

Unfortunately, Ben has the same goals as Sharpton, he said. Light on 2nd amendment, and open to amnesty.

“The plan is for Carson to take out Trump, and for his “friends” to unleash a flood of trash on him as soon as he does.”

Yup.

But someone jumped the gun today and released the Carson/Calypso Louis link today. That was scheduled for much later.......

All you need to worry about are Presbyterians lol. They have become very liberal, and I believe divested themselves of all their investments in Israel and encouraged anyone who would listen to do the same.

I did know about a couple of Catholic sects because when I converted in 1990, I wasn't prepared for all the innovations and disobedience by priests. Also the sex abuse scandal. I didn't have a problem with the Novus Ordo mass providing they followed liturgical norms.

I think one could go crazy trying to track all the sects. I try to stick to the mainline ones and a few which might be considered cults. In my search over the years, I did explore Christian Science, and the Jehovah's Witnesses haven't bothered me lately.

That recent scandal where that one offbeat church beat the two brothers relentless until one died. Horrible. So far from anything I believe it's hard to imagine. It can get depressing.

If you as a Catholic are satisfied where you are in the Catholic church, it is probably for the best. Catholics when they are not undergoing some trial tend to be happy people and very family oriented. They, especially the women, do a lot of good in the world, in their communities and parishes, very giving of their time and talents.

Thanks for the info again :)

You’re right. The basic groups will be hard enough for me to learn!

Catholics are like anyone else, believe. The great, the good, the bad, and the very bad :)

I love when people say I’m (any religion) by birth or i’m a cultural (any religion)

Religion isn’t DNA. And it’s not having parties for certain religion’s holidays.

This country is lost. I have been in the past so my hope is each person finds their way back to God,.
