But when was the last time Trump defended anything Christian and conservative? I can hardly think of anything since he spoke out to say the GOP should obstruct any Obama appointment to the Supreme Court. That was quite awhile ago at a debate.

He’s been silent on just about everything lately, along with the rest of the candidates, and except to speak out to take some liberal positions.

It bears keeping in mind that both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton used to be against “gay marriage.” That was when they believed public opposition to it was too great. But since it was legalized, the GOP and most prominent pastors have hardly cared. And Christians have largely put it behind too, with so much of the business of life to deal with and all the diversions of modern life to pursue.

This leaves politics to be like a spectator sport, and for politicians to be like mercenaries who do the spiritual warfare work of Christians, who watch and cheer. That won’t work long-term. Christians have to get more involved, which won’t completely stop secular humanists, but can go a long ways towards stopping the demonization of Christian beliefs.

I am looking for a new church because my pastor died. I will not go to or support any church that is so morally BK that they will marry gays and import terrorists for money. I am finding the pickins are slim out here.

It starts in the churches.

Pray America churches awaken from their long slumber.

Trump fights against political correctness. That's the greatest threat Christianity has faced since Marxism, not surprising since it comes straight from Marxism.

If we don't stand up against PC the Bible will be banned as hate literature in our lifetime. Make no mistake, when they get people fired for making a comment alluding to the historic Christian view of marriage and homosexuality they are gearing up for a full scale war to ban the Bible.

Trump is the first significant public figure to push back against PC since the Moral Majority collapsed.
