Been working on a response for a Quora query, You are a devout Bible-fundamental Jesus believer. Or devout Catholic or Mormon. Why do you and your religious principles support and defend President Trump? Otherwise, why wouldn't you?
I only worked on what the alternative to Trump would mean so far. Any suggestions for this?
"Devout Bible-fundamental Jesus believer" best fits evangelicals, and even considering the alternative from that overall perspective should suffice for now, as illustrated by this (imperfect) analogy:
You are at a port along with many other people, trying to continue on a long journey to get to your final preferred destination, and you have a choice between two companies, ships, captains and crews.
The ship on the Left insists on engaging in some non-traditional social engineering, and has a destination quite different than where you want to live. The captain of this ship, owned by Soros and company enterprises, is (in his own words) a peace-loving, fair-minded, Kerry-for-President former pot-smoking hippie (but who did not inhale), who is ever conscious his/her racial color and supports guilt and discrimination based on this.
He (or “she” or “they” as the entity may choose to I.D. as), is as member in good standing of NWIMBY (no windmills in my backyard), and abhors those “deplorables” who “cling to guns and religion“ as anti-life, and supports a women's right to kill the unborn, and for self-identified men to use a bathroom with your wife or daughter, while seeking to control industry and the speech of others more. In short, the captain, reflecting company policy, is ever striving to fundamentally transform the society which produced the U.S. Constitution and reminds him of Biblical values.
In that interest, the captain informs you that on this ship there are many polices to be followed, which have been adopted from practices, principals or proposals of many elite liberal institutions of higher education. Which means:
• This ship flies the flag of Sodom, and anything but support for the nation for which it stands (such as kneeling when its anthem is played) will be considered evidence of homophobia, which is profoundly intolerable. Those found guilty of such may face severe economic sanctions.
• The choice of which bathrooms one uses is to be determined by whatever gender one feels comfortable with (at least at the moment). Objections to this will be penalized in accordance with the scale explained below.
• Any babies that may happen to be born during this journey can be disposed off if unwanted by the mother, rather than her having to share her accommodations with this unwanted tissue.
• This ship will be escorted by Greenpeace activists to warn whales of our approach, while representatives of PETA will be onboard to ensure a vegetarian diet is followed (no eggs!). However, feeding sharks with any manner of flesh will be sanctioned.
• This ship is a gun free zone, including toys and mere replicas, and our policy in case of encounters with those whom conservatives sees as enemies, such as pirates or communist “guerrillas” will be to assure them we have no intent or means to harm them, and thus we expect they will reciprocate in kind. We can then smoke organic weed together, educate them on how to receive government benefits in California, and explain to them how they became “radicalized” because of George Bush.
• Consistent with this, corporal discipline of children (and only an average of 1.5 are allowed) is forbidden, as are all contact sports, but indoctrination by watching MSNBC or listening to NPR 5 hours a day will be required, after first reciting the Pledge of Allegiance to the (future) United States of Sodom. Students will be tested on such issues as how many problems can be blamed on Climate Change, and why conserves are dangerous racist homophones, and how liberals are objective/fair-minded and should be in control as being the elite minds. And how to engage in intimidation against those who disagree.
Among the types of speech that are to be progressively censored is that which expresses any doubt of past or present warnings regarding Climate Change, any conclusions of evolutionary science, or liberal polices in general. And of course (as if we have to say it), any speech, oral or written, or songs, celebrating Christian beliefs, especially if conveying any official sanction. This is critical in order to foster our desired diversity.
• The crew has been hired based upon racial quotas (with sexual orientation qualifying as race). Although this means that the best qualified person may not be hired if he or she is of the wrong race or self-identified gender, this is necessary in order to avoid discrimination.
• Likewise, penalties for infractions by crew or passenger will be determined by a scale based on racial status, with those of a majority race being penalized the most, at least by writing an essay confessing to their guilt as the favored historical race, and their need to atone for it. This is only proper, for those of minority race are not to suffer due to what they had no control over.
• Consistent with this, those who purchased first-class accommodations and benefits, regardless of how many years they labored to attain them, are to be compelled to share what they acquired with all others, regardless of whether they be stowaways, those engaged in the street-level pharmaceutical trade, or students in the elite art of protesting.
• Sharing wealth as being an expression of mercy and grace is not condoned: instead, obtaining what others earned is to be considered a Right as Victims of those who labored for greater benefits, and the latter are to be increasingly penalized for gaining wealth, and for presuming to share such as acts of mercy and grace.
• This divestiture will first be for and through the captain and administration, who uniquely may enjoy without guilt greater benefits they attained as elite saviors of the perpetually oppressed. This is necessary in order to maintain a class-less society in which the goal is for all to share an equal level of poverty prosperity (except for their elite comrades). At the ships final destination of Venezuela this goal will hopefully be realized.
• Cultural appropriations by certain races are prohibited, such as Europeans wearing Hawaiian shirts or cooking General Tso’s chicken (even if virtually unheard of in China). However, everything from wearing Western clothing to eating pizza or a sandwich (at least calling it that) is permitted regardless of where one is from.
• No one is to be allowed onboard who has ever been banned by Facebook, or supports any organization promoting traditional moral values, and or has been censored by the $outhern Poverty Law Center, or who has been the subject of any allegations (proven or not) of ancient impropriety by liberal women (unless the accused is an verifiable liberal), or who has not apologized for having ancestors who owned slaves. And for driving an SUV or other truck vehicles. The Terms of Service on your boarding pass provides more specific details of what may be judged offensive (note “otherwise objectionable” and “violative of any law”) by politically correct police at their discretion.
• If you have any doubt as to what may be considered offensive behavior, the general rule is that the alternative to traditional Judaeo-Christian morals and principals are to be followed. For instance, expressing that unmarried consensual (though a formal consent form my be required) sexual relationships are sin will not be tolerated. However, failing to recycle is considered to be the equivalent of a mortal sin.
• Although extensive efforts have been made to prohibit intolerance, in case of violations, real or perceived, there are assigned Safe Places on every deck for those who feel offended by politically incorrect speech, or suspected microaggressions. Bring you own Play-Do if you prefer.
Some may criticize me for not directly posting positive reasons for voting for Trump, whom i voted for, but this took me to much time already.
Because*
False premise
How does one defend voting for the Anti Christian, morally bankrupt politics of Hillary or Obammy? That is the real question to be answered.
1) Because I understand that it drives you bat$hit crazy.
2) Because Christians aren’t perfect, just forgiven. In fact, my joy at annoying you is a probably a sin. But that’s just one more thing I needed to be redeemed for.
3) Because unlike Hillary and your side, he is not a satanist, Bohemian grove, Pizza-gate child molester criminal who loves homos and islam.
That’s just off the top of my head.
Trump isn’t a socialist like Hillary or Obama.
I think my illustration described much of that, and where it would lead.
He’s on our side. He’s not perfect, but he’s on our side. There’s nothing else to be said, as far as I’m concerned.
The Left ship opposes anything Christian or even Judeo-Christian, but openly advocates everything Satanic and Luciferian, then accuses those who do not condone their anti-Christian promotions.
It is so obvious, that there isn’t any need to state the obvious.
THe only good thing about politics in the last 10 years in the US national scene, is that anybody who even condones the left, manifests their hatred towards anything holy.
Because Torah demands I follow the good and eschew evil.
For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden.
I like the response. Mine is usually shorter. “Do you want me to vote for the party that booed God, whose number one issue is killing unborn babies?”
Because if God can speak through Balaam’s ass He can speak through Donald Trump. And He is!
Num. 22:28-31
So I would vote for Trump even if I were a Jew, Muslim, Ba'hai or any other brand of religion who opposed a de facto state church. Or, for that matter, even a liberal who valued the First Amendment.
In the immortal words of Bluto when Flounder asked him why he gave him that frat name, “(braaaap!), Why not?”
First, I will say HRC gleefully supports abortion, Trump doesn’t.
My answer:
The ignorant ask how Christians could vote for and continue to support Trump because he is a sinner. Do they not know that Jesus died for those sins? Do they think that if DJT has asked for forgiveness that that forgiveness was not granted? Have they ever read The Lord’s Prayer? Have they noticed that line in which we ask God for forgiveness of our sins and what immediately follows? And as a kicker, are they freely able to throw the first stone? I know I’m not.
Yes, that is shorter. Support PETA to save birds while supporting killing infants.
