Here’s an idea, Mr. B.
Retire from Public Life. ‘Divorce’ your ‘Husband’ and get your head screwed on straight and get right with God.
Tick-Tock!
I don’t think buttplug has any worry about being perceived as overly pious.
Yes, I can see that this man is obsessed with religion in a way that is very bizarre and unhealthy and clearly related to his perversion.
Sick man.
“But Buttigieg, like no other Democrat seeking the 2020 presidential nomination, is trying to demonstrate that there’s a strong religiosity among Democrats, too.”
Yeah. For Satan.
So Buttigieg, what is your take on the Bible’s condemnation of homosexuality?
Just what I want; to be lectured on Biblical meaning from a Dem who supports full-term abortion.
Buttigieg proudly attributes this sinful desire of his fallen fleshly nature to God, stating that he wished that, "the Mike Pences of the world" would understand that if they have a problem with who he is then their quarrel is with God.[98][99]
Buttigieg's "faith journey" begins with father, who studied to become a Jesuit for a time, and although the elder Buttigieg later became irreligious, and in his memoir, "Shortest Way Home," "Mayor Pete" credits Catholicism with awakening his moral conscience, "as a voice for the oppressed and downtrodden," which he sees homosexuals as. However, as a proponent of The Federal Equality Act, Buttigieg supports persecuting those who uphold the rejecting the incontrovertible Biblical teaching that only condemns homosexual relations and only joins male and female in marriage, as the Lord Jesus Himself specified.[77][78]
Later, as a student at Harvard University, Buttigieg heard the famed homosexual preacher and proxy servant of the devil, Peter Gomes, expound on so-called "progressive Christianity," and as a consequence Buttigieg attests, "I began to understand the range of Christian traditions beyond the Catholicism I was steeped in at South Bend," and wrote columns in the Harvard Crimson that exhorted liberals to seize the moral high ground (as perversely defined by him) from conservatives. However, as R. Albert Mohler (president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky) states, "Progressive Christianity necessitates replacing Christianity with an entirely new religion." "Mayor Pete is just the latest prophet of this new religion. He won't be the last.
Studying at Oxford (England) on a Rhodes scholarship, Buttigieg stated the program was "decidedly atheistic" and which he found convincing in many ways. However, wanting some sort of spirituality, he attended services at Anglican Christ Church, which was across from the college. After moving back to South Bend, Indiana, he began began attending services at the Cathedral of St. James, which is part of the Episcopal church (the American branch of Anglicanism), and which has become known as a forerunner of "progressive" (meaning unbiblical) theology, electing the adulterer and sodomite Gene Robinson its first openly homosexual bishop and voting to allow same-sex marriages in 2003. At that local church Buttigieg "married" his boyfriend, Chasten Glezman, in June 2018, and the readings included including a passage from the Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage and an excerpt from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount[79] (which was another case of Buttigieg misappropriating Scripture in order to justify what it condemns).
Consistent with the liberal social gospel, which gives a low priority to the teachings of Christ (while marginalizing the teachings of Paul etc. which were inspired by the Spirit of Christ) on personal moral purity in preference to acts such as feeding the (genuinely) needy, Buttigieg criticized right-wing Christians for "saying so much about what Christ said so little about, and so little about what he said so much about." Which, like Barack Obama, indicates ignorance of the totality of what Christ taught and how He did so, and the context of His social actions and the principals of sound interpretation,[80] as well as the evidence that the evangelical church has been very substantially engaged in providing humanitarian aid,[81] and encourages sacrificial giving to help others, which evangelicals engage in more of than other major groups.[82] While Democrats typically only give perfunctory mention of God, Buttigieg openly invokes his liberal faith and advocates doing so, stating, "we need to not be afraid to invoke arguments that are convincing on why Christian faith is going to point you in a progressive direction. ... When I think about where most of Scripture points me, it is toward defending the poor, and the immigrant, and the stranger, and the prisoner, and the outcast...So I think it's really important to carry a message (to the public)…"[83] Buttigieg opposed The Religious Freedom Restoration Act saying it "appeared to me to be a license to harm others in the name of religion...making it easier to harm people in its name,"[85] implicitly endorsing Christian persecution. In Buttigieg's world Christians who hold to Biblical morality can be impoverished and treated as outcasts or otherwise subject to harm (a word Buttigieg often uses for justification of his stance against conservatives), such as when refusing to be complicit in celebrating immoral causes, as in the case of Masterpiece Cakeshop.[86] Illustrating a primary reason why "right-wing Christians" seem so vocal about moral issues (since cultural Marxist immorality is foisted upon society and Biblical morality is attacked), Buttigieg's attack on conservative evangelicals has provoked many responses from them. Based upon the logic that the importance of an issue is based upon how much Christ said about it, and the premise that explicit statements only seem to count, evangelical blogger Erick Erickson surmises that perhaps Mayor Pete Buttigieg thinks that Jesus would be okay with abortion and bestiality.[87] Erickson also pointed out that while Buttigieg holds himself out as a more tolerant Christian than Vice President Mike Pence, yet the later has never once said anything negative about Buttigieg being gay, while Buttigieg called Pence a fanatic and ridiculed Pence's faith. Erickson thus sees this as suggesting that he "would be O.K. with using the government to persecute Christians," for already "Buttigieg has come out in favor of the government shutting down Christian businesses if they do not bow at the altar of gay marriage."[88] Despite claiming to oppose using religion as a "cudgel," said in his very next sentence that if God were a member of a political party, it would not be the GOP.[89] Issues supported
"Security" is a major theme of his position page, being mentioned 27 times, from Climate security to economic security to security from intimidation, while the effects of the Federal Equality Act would use intimidation via penalizing and prosecuting individuals or business such as in good conscience refuse to be complicit in affirming homosexual relations, imposing economic sanctions or worse on such.[111] Such attacks on the security of those of religious conscience has been seen under the implementation of the European Union equality law.[112]
WOW - what did they do? All attended the same retreat and came out spouting their religion...first Warren and now this jerk? Aren’t they smart enough to know that no one will take them seriously when they all claim “religion” all of a sudden? None of these people deserve the time that is spent on reporting on them.
He’s getting on my nerves with his fake Christianity. I really don’t think he realizes how insulting his rhetoric is to our faith AND our intelligence.
Two words: sanctimonious hypocrite.
Question for Mr. B: Are you contributing your mayoral salary to worthy causes? Because the Bible talks about personal giving, not forcing another entity to give to causes.
Hey, Pete, I gave $7,000 to the poor last year, so don’t slander people you don’t even know. Got it? The Bible condemns slander, too: “Thou shalt not bear false witness against they neighbor.” People like you make horrible slanders about US almost every day - we are Nazis, we are fascists, we are white-supremacists, we are racists, we want to throw children in cages, and on and on.
I’ve studied Carholic, Protestant, and Jewish editions of the Bible and none of them approve of this guy. Not by a long shot!!! Indeed, this fellow had better get honest and stop all his pretenses ( and immoral behavior) — and pray for forgiveness.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! STOP IT!!!
I’m sorry. I didn’t or will read this.
What Mayor ButtFudge has to say about anything is irrelevant.
” taking care of the least among us and feeding the poor”
Trump has done 10 times as much for the poor as any President since Reagan, just as America has done more for the poor than any other country in the history of the world. MAGA!
Why is it that the press and Buttigieg think we care what he thinks about faith. He is an ex-spook. Who is running a very small city... badly. He had no reason to expect votes. Those who are gay may vote for him because he is gay. But for the rest of us, that is not enough reason for us to care. And its certainly not enough reason for us to care what he thinks about god, or faith or religion.
The guy is a Pinko.
Thinks God works for the government.
Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
