Donald Trump may be a fierce debater and a brash critic who is always happy to speak his mind and then some, but there seems to be one place the presidential hopeful is more than happy to lay low - church.
Trump and his family attended the 10:30pm midnight mass service at Bethesda-By-The-Sea in West Palm Beach, Florida on Christmas Eve, and the billionaire businessman somehow managed to avoid the massive number of photographers and members of the press waiting outside to document his arrival.
Instead he slipped inside unnoticed for the service, with the only photographs from the evening coming from some of his fellow churchgoers who uploaded them to social media.
*snip*
Trump's fellow midnight-mass attendees mostly just wrote on Twitter that they had spotted Trump at the service, with a few noting that they were checked by Secret Service members before entering the church.
His Secret Service detail may explain why he slipped in unnoticed as they likely coordinated his entrance to avoid any possible safety concerns for him and his family.

That’s so Christian of you
Condemn the man for attending Mass and dwell on the sins you know or imagine of him
Merry Christmas, pure and sinless one
Because he said so in a CNN interview.
When he starts going to black churches we’ll know he has gone establishment politician on us
Trump *said* that he doesn’t ask God for forgiveness. His own words condemn him, not me. His words are on the record.
Merely pointing out your hypocrisy. You go out of your way to attack Trump unprovoked, condemning him for his faith, but embrace a heretic. At least Trump seems to be on the right road! A heretic has no hope. I wonder if you are a heretic as well? Never seen you in the Religion forum.
Now you’re dismissing Ted Cruz as creepy because of something someone *else* said?
His father, and then Cruz was prayed over/anointed by Dominionist heretics.
Want to come to a
Did I misquote The Donald?

Rude, crude and socially unattractive.
nice post love your handle. I did the java certification and couldn’t find work. went cobol to finance manager (business unit).
Ah, I remember you. I now recall that you’re not worth my time.
You remembered all the ass whippings!
Glad you were able to get your foot in the door!
Software engineer going on 28 years. Managed to get my mitts on just about everything - Design & Development, DBA, SysAdmin, Tech Writing, Testing, Networks, etc. Best thing is to be willing to learn it all!
And thank you so much for spreading the word that Trump is a condemned man
Surely you are one of God’s own messengers to help the rest of us identify the lost among us
And here we thought muslims held the record for deciding which humans were worthy or unworthy n the eyes of a god that condemns eternally for lack of acceptable procedural humility
Ah, now quoting the thoughts of the god you worship
Now now
You don’t want to go to hell for saying ass whipping, do you?
Prostrate yourself and ask God for forgiveness
or you may join Trump in the fiery pit
I have condemned no one. I simply reminded people that Trump has said that he has no need to ask God for forgiveness.
Without God’s forgiveness, one is ...
I’m just quoting Trump. I condemn nobody.
?
I heard him say them. My jaw dropped. Here we have one candidate who thinks he’s above forgiveness and another (Cruz) who asks the devil’s spawn (homosexuals) for money for his campaign.
Vice versa.
YCMMV.
You are a strange type of Christian or your church has a strange doctrine. We are forgiven by accepting Christ and God’s grace. If you feel you have to ask forgiveness constantly you are either 1. not living your faith or 2. disbelieving in your forgiveness.
As someone who has been saved by Christ’s death on the cross, I have no doubt I am forgiven my sins.
Thank you for an very good explanation.
