Donald Trump said Thursday that Ben Carson's self-described "pathological temper" is incurable -- adding that it's like the sickness of a "child molester."
"It's in the book that he's got a pathological temper," Trump told "Erin Burnett OutFront," speaking about Carson's autobiography. "That's a big problem because you don't cure that ... as an example: child molesting. You don't cure these people. You don't cure a child molester. There's no cure for it. Pathological, there's no cure for that."
In his 1990 autobiography, "Gifted Hands," Carson attributes violent behavior in his youth to his "disease," a "pathological temper" that the Republican presidential hopeful said caused him to strike one friend with a rock and attempt to stab another. In subsequent accounts of his violent youth, Carson said he once attempted to attack his mother with a hammer.
"I'm not bringing up anything that's not in his book," Trump told Erin Burnett. "You know, when he says he went after his mother and wanted to hit her in the head with a hammer, that bothers me. I mean, that's pretty bad. When he says he's pathological -- and he says that in the book, I don't say that -- and again, I'm not saying anything, I'm not saying anything other than pathological is a very serious disease. And he said he's pathological, somebody said he has pathological disease."

Seventh Day Adventists believe no such thing. You're thinking of Jehovah's Witness.
The best thing for Cruz is for Trump and Carson to fight like Godzilla and King Kong while he waits it out and stays on the sidelines. Then he can rise from the ashes of their scorched carcasses to fill the void as the new king of the jungle.
“The remark isn’t defensible. I think you know that.”
Get off your high horse. You hate Trump, and if he quoted the Bible you would come out breathing fire.
Carson has to go. He’s a Cuckoo bird. Its time to wrap this thing up and nominate Trump. He needs to be able to move on and prepare to steamroll Hitlery.
Carson wrote in his own book that he had a 'pathological temper" meaning:
extreme in a way that is not normal or that shows an illness or mental problem
Was Carson cured somewhere along the way?
We’re very close to saying a) all blacks have a pathological temper and b) because you can’t cure it, you also can’t blame them when they act enraged and violent.
I already start to see this as the “excuse” to free blacks from prison where they statistically have far more percentage of people than other minorities. At the minimum, the left will want to justify allowing black prisoners to vote.
I know it sounds ludicrous but we already seen logic turned on its head to justify gay marriage, global warming and other leftist stands that then become codified into law. We need to be very careful the way we use these terms.
pathological adjective: extreme in a way that is not normal or that shows an illness or mental problem
medical : relating to or caused by disease
: of or relating to the study of diseases : relating to pathology
Full Definition of PATHOLOGICAL
1 of or relating to pathology
2 altered or caused by disease; also : indicative of disease
3 being such to a degree that is extreme, excessive, or markedly abnormal adverb
OK, who among us has not tried to stab a friend or taken after his Mother with a hammer?
I am not sure which part of the truth that Trump expressed, you find indefensible.. I can agree that Carson seems to have overcome his pathological violent temper....
I don’t think so but if that’s your dream rock on. :-)
Let’s face it, though, it would be fun to see Trump unload a full-frontal assault on Hellary. The Republicans waged personal destruction in 1988 against Dukakis and it worked out well.
Probably better to stand clear and let Carson IMPLODE ON HIS OWN.
But in the end, it won’t matter, Carson is a NUTCASE, based on just what he’s disclosed.
“.. I can agree that Carson seems to have overcome his pathological violent temper”
Yeh that’s likely why he always appears to be well medicated. :-)
There's one person in the world I hate. He currently occupies the Oval Office.
You probably should get upset with your candidate instead of the reasonable people who have a problem with such a lunatic remark.
Trumps big fat NYC overload mouth will doom him...
The SDA is not a Christian group. They disqualify themselves from being called Christian due to their denial of the Trinity:
"The long process of change from early Adventists' initial rejection of creedal trinitarianism to their eventual acceptance of a doctrine of the Trinity could rightly be called a search for a biblical Trinity. They were not so much prejudiced against traditional formulas as they were determined to hew their doctrine as closely as possible to the line of Scripture. In order to base their beliefs on Scripture alone, and to disenfranchise tradition from exercising any theological authority, they found it methodologically essential to reject every doctrine not clearly grounded in Scripture alone. Since the traditional doctrine of the Trinity clearly contained unscriptural elements, they rejected it. [...]" (From an article by SDA Seminary professor Dr. Jerry Moon entitled "The Adventist Trinity Debate Part 1: Historical Overview," published in Andrews University Seminary Studies in 2003, and available online at http://www.sdanet.org/atissue/trinity/moon/moon-trinity1.htm)

The SDA upholds a belief in three separate gods, one in "purpose," but not in actuality. Note how they rewrite the scriptures in their Clear Word Bible:
John 1:1 (Clear Word Bible): "From the beginning, the Word of God was there. The Word stood by the side of God, and the Word was fully God. 2There never was a time when the Word of God was not with God."
Compare:
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (John 1:1 KJV).
"28I give them eternal life, and they will not perish, nor will anyone be able to take them away from me. 29The Father who put the sheep under my care is greater than anyone; no one can take them out of His hand. 30You see, my Father and I are so close, we're one.'" [The Clear Word, John 10:28-30.]
Compare:
"And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one." (Joh 10:28-30)

When a Dr diagnoses himself as pathological, we should pay attention.
Take your own advice, would ya?
Sit down and shut up.
You don’t care about Carson and we know it. He is a big boy. He can survive without your help.
He found Jesus, didn't he? I think He's pretty much capable of curing anything.
Sorry. SDA’s do believe Jesus is the Archangel Michael. It was a teaching of their false prophetess, Ellen G. White. They are listed in several books on cults, one of which is entitled, “The Four Major Cults”, Christian Science, Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Seventh Day Adventist, available at christianbooks.com and Amazon.
Your problem is with your candidate, not me.
