Buttigieg's attempts to rally religious voters may not sway evangelicals
Washington Examiner ^ | 08-25-19 | Jeffrey Cimmino

South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg may have an uphill battle drawing some Iowa voters to his blend of progressive politics and religion. Buttigieg "comes off as a great guy," said Bob Vander Plaats, president of conservative Iowa Christian organization The Family Leader, but "his policies don't align with where we believe Scripture is and where we believe the faith is at and what's in the best interest of our country." "If the policies don’t line up, I think Iowans — and more than that Americans who are evangelical — are wise enough to see through that," Vander Plaats told the Washington Examiner.

He wants to sway “faith-based” people based on the fact that he goes to church and talks it up? Most of the candidates go to church, or claim to. He’s an Episcopalian, and the way the Episcopal Church has turned out, that just barely counts as going to church.

Evangelicals arent going for his phony baloney liberation theology. They know that God does not work for the State and probably resent his cynical twisting of scripture.

From what he says about being gay and a Christian, the gays must have re-written the Bible leaving out the verses where God condemns the gay life style.

Buttigieg “comes off as a great guy”?

Really?! In what universe is a pro-abortion, red-diaper sodomite a great guy? No mine.

Peter Butt is NOT a “great guy”. He is a man who masks his fury better than most others, but if you read his words dry, you realize that he is every bit as radical as The Bern and Fauxcahontas.

The DNC never wastes an opportunity to manipulate public opinion. Having a homosexual candidate espousing Christian values (incorrectly), even though he has no chance in the election, can still help advance their push towards acceptance of the lgbtq lifestyle.

Why would I vote for a practicing homosexual? Some lines I cannot cross.

Romans 1:18-32 is not about homosexuality but about willfully departing from the knowledge of the Lord. Simply, by the time people can arrive at the point that homosexuality can be approved of, as clear as prohibitions in Scripture are against that, they will have already compromised away the truth.

God giveing them over to reprobate minds can be viewed like a canary dying in a mine: it is a sign, He is warning people that the proverbial air where those people are is poisonous and that they should be repenting, maybe even “run screaming out of the building” where they are as one minister used to put it (though speaking more generally).

He will only sway fake “Christians” like himself, in love with everything gay, the 73 “genders,” infanticide, etc.

He has about zero percent of the black vote, and I’m sure he has nearly zero percent of support from serious Bible-believing Christians.
