Kerry is a devout Catholic.

Kerry is a latae sententiae excommunicated Catholic. I have more contempt for him than Obama and Clinton put together.

Reading is one thing. Knowing and understanding it is another.

I can’t tell you my favorite Bible verse but I guess my favorite book is that Two Corinthians. I like how the Bible writers write books in a series like that - it keeps you in suspense, it really does. If they write any more of the Corinthians series I will be sure to get the whole set.

#45 Where was his Bible when he used wounded vets as a tool to hide from answering questions in a debate for public office he is seeking?

What’s more, where is that supposed 6 Million dollars he claimed he raised that night?

I don’t want to get into scripture interpretation, there are many that are far more bible literate than me. But I do know a con when I see one and this “nobody reads the bible more than me” is a con. Religion is not a deal breaker for me in choosing the POTUS, in fact I would prefer it not even being an issue in politics. I am not judging Donald Trump, as that is equally repugnant to me, that is up to God. BUT really, don’t you think Donald has gone a little too far with these comments?

Do you have proof or even evidence that there is someone on the planet reads the Bible more than Donald Trump?

He doesn’t need to do this pandering crap to get Christians to vote for him.
He evidently feels Christians are dumb rubes that will vote for him only if he says this stuff.

HAHA! As if

Trump donates to Democrats = just doing business!
Trump donates to Sharpton = who cares!
Trump advocates for universal health care = in the past!
Trump hires foreign workers = nothing illegal about that!
Trump mocks a reporter's physical disability = the reporter is a liberal!
Trump advocates for amnesty = that was last month, old news!
Trump ducks a debate because he is afraid of Megyn Kelly = it was for the veterans!
Trump uses eminent domain for personal gain = not illegal!
Trump throws Kim Davis under the bus = hands to ears - LALALA!
Trump says he reads the Bible more than anyone = don't judge his religion!

It’s a vacuous statement as literally put because what does Trump know about others’ bible reading even if it was true?

And I agree it’s kind of pointless from that point of view too.

However, could there be a figurative sense intended... that Trump is claiming he’s more bible faithful? That would be an audacious claim, but one that would be at least somewhat relevant and open to discussion.

What if the actual implied statement is “When it comes to things that US Presidents need to do, I follow the bible better than the next guy”?

“’Nobody reads the Bible more than me,’ Trump declared ahead of his third consecutive win in the GOP primary in the Nevada caucuses.”

In light of this kind of lie, what else is the Trumpster lying about?

You gotta understand, according to his supporters, regardless of what he did or said in the past — THIS TIME IT’s DIFFERENT AND HE REALLY MEANS IT.

Especially Two Corinthians.

Take the time to spell, Johnie. Gives more credence to your posts.

Trump used bad grammar. Can he spell? Can we tell by his tweets.

No I don’t have proof, but at least one of my exhibits would be.......Trump has admitted to extra-marital affairs, now that’s called adultery and is covered rather extensively in the bible. Understand that I am not judging, the only thing I can offer is........Donald Trump in his own words when asked, said he has never asked for God’s forgiveness because he hasn’t done anything wrong...........

I don’t care if he is religious or not, forgiven or not or prays, but what is important to me is that he is using GOD in the same sentence with VOTERS and that should tell anyone all they need to know about the greatest bible reader ever.
