Piqued by Trump, Colorado Democrats make a play for religious voters
The Broomfield Enterprise ^ | September 29, 2019 | Anna Staver, The Denver Post

Colorado Democrats want to close the “God gap.” It’s the theory in political science that calling yourself religious and regularly attending services are strong predictors of your political party affiliation, and for the past three decades those voters have largely called themselves Republicans.

“We are here today to dispel a myth that somehow right-wing conservatives have a monopoly on faith,” Colorado Democratic Party Chair Morgan Carroll said from behind a podium in Civic Center Park last week. “They do not. Many, many, many Democrats — many people who have been in the party for a long time or who are new to the party — come from strong faith backgrounds.”

In the era of President Donald Trump, which has seen a family separation policy at the U.S. border and rollback of environmental regulations, the state party sees an opening to engage people in their churches, temples and mosques and encourage them to take an active role in shaping public policy with the launch of Colorado FAITH-ful Democrats. Conservative religious groups welcome the new kids on the block, but political scientists have reservations about whether the party can lure people of faith back to their flock.

Perhaps the dems can make inroads if they make it legal to rape babies while they are aborting them. I am sure the pope is in favor

The pictures I posted (just above) are pretty sanitized. It basically shows Chuck Schumer and Andrew Cuomo waving to the fools, I mean people, who attended the parade.

The links are safe. Believe me, I’ve seen a lot of pics you DON’T want posted here.

It’s shocking how world-wide this insanity is. It tells me the hour is late.

Pray tell, what religion promotes murdering innocent babies in the womb, or out of it?

Molech was an Ammonite god who required propitiatory child sacrifice. A couple sacrificed their firstborn by burning the child on a metal idol of Molech, believing that Molech would ensure financial prosperity for the family and future children.

Well they passed it, despite the boos.

Then there were more boos.

They were embarrassed by the boos. So they passed it.

And then came more boos.

Love the stupid look on the guy’s face who proposed it. Like he doesn’t know what the Democrat Party of gay marriage and murdering babies in the womb, truly is.

Skypilot has some great pics of Moloch-type sacrifice I believe

I do not understand how one can be Christian or even catholic and a democrat. We have a colleague at work who posts all this democrat for life bullspit then goes into the voting. moth and votes for rank baby killers. i suppose he feels righteous because of a few facebook posts. then he goes off to mass at his local church presumably with a clean conscience. i cannot stomach those who vote for baby murder

I believe, sometimes, it’s necessary to give the public a peek at what the Democrats and their agendas mean for America.

Yes, it’s meant to be offensive. 40 years ago, a guy like this wouldn’t have gotten anywhere. Now he’s popular enough that Drudge kept linking stories about him for months. And he’s getting prime time TV on liberal media channels for debate.

I just file it under “sign of the times”. Especially when the Democrats are pimping him as a “man of faith” for the Presidency.

Blessings

".... political scientists have reservations about whether the [democRAT] party can lure people of faith back to their flock...."

The democRATS are all about sleight of hand. If they actually told their voters were they stood, they couldn't get elected.

At their nominating convention in 2012, party leaders removed references to God and the mention of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. They didn’t merely forget to mention God, in updating previous party platforms, they made a conscious decision to remove Him.

Then they realized that His absence wouldn't play well in Peoria, so they decided to reintroduce it into the platform.

The floor booed God and Jerusalem when they were reintroduced into the party platform. They had to take three voice votes to get it to pass, with the third vote being passed by cheating because there were not enough "ayes" to pass it.

They knew the voters outside the political orbit wouldn't like that, so they artificially rammed it back into the platform. They wanted to approve the amendment quickly because they didn't want to give American voters the opportunity see just how radical the democRATic party had become.

Now they think they can become the party of faith with another phony-baloney scheme to make it appear they are for God again.

The democRAT party, the party of deceit.

If those pics don't say "Antichrist" I'm afraid to ask what does. Again, I'm not saying he's THE guy. But they don't even recognize what they're doing. Or maybe some of them know exactly what they're doing. If I walked into a house and saw any of that stuff there, I'd probably never want to return to that house.

Yigael's Wall was just fiction (NOT Biblical) from Omen II. But it made for an interesting opening act for that movie.

This scene which ends with Lance Henriksen was awesome.

They cut it off - He tells Damien that he was showing off. Which he was.

LH said the day will come when everyone knows who you are. But that day is not today.

Democrats have NO intention to stop killing babies, but they expect Christians to somehow overlook that.

They must explain why they removed GOD from their party!

They’re a GODLESS party and it shows. It wasn’t anything the “right” did - it is the result of their decisions.

Demonrats have plenty of "faith". They have faith in 'almighty' government, socialism/communism, political power that grows from the barrel of a gun (as Mao Tse Tung said), and their elitist leaders. Many Demonrats also have faith, as Saul Alinsky (Hillary's mentor) expressed, in Lucifer, god of this world.

Faith in God? They denounced God THRICE at their last convention. They MURDER their offspring up to and after birth. They support elite politicians who traffic in young girls and boys, to have sex with them.

I'll say it: the Demonrat party is completely devoid of real devotion to the God of the Bible, and any Demonrat who says different is DECEIVED themselves.
