“Satan must be laughing. Trump makes Christians look like idiots and acts like the liberals stereotype of the ugly Christian, without any serious evidence he is saved.”

I completely disagree.

I think the self-righteous, I”m more Christian than you types who act like they can see into Trump (or anyone’s) soul make Christians look terrible. The rigid, “ not Christian enough” positions are those made fun of by mainstream America. The pious, holier-than-thou snobs who act like if anyone EVER was a liberal, or exhibited anything liberal in the past, there is no hope for redemption and the Christian elitists on high will deem them unworthy. That self-aggrandizing, Christians are so much better than anyone attitude is PRECISELY what gives Christians a bad name to the larger world. The judgmental attitude from people who themselves are not perfect.

Guess there is no point in anyone maturing in their political judgment right? There will always be the ‘perfect’ wringing their hands and mocking anyone who didn’t have a flawless Christian predigree. That is as off-putting as anything else.

Need I remind everyone that some of the most heinous crimes on this planet were directed toward innocent children at the hands of the ordained, trusted, Christian leaders?

I wish The Perfect Council was more comfortable with their own humanity. Alas, they sit on Earth in pious judgment of all things ‘not Christian enough’ Tell me how that attracts the masses, not only to Christ’s message, but politically? It does not.

What a excellent post, these self righteous judges of lesser Christians are nothing like Jesus. I would rather take advice from humble lost souls than these self identifying perfect religious people, I won't call them Christians because I doubt they are.

They're no fun on church committees, either!
