For all their professed beliefs, Pence, and his wife, show unwavering support for a man who has been married three times, divorced twice, has had five children with three women and who has been accused of (though denies) paying a porn star and a Playboy model hundreds of thousands of dollars to conceal affairs he'd had with them.
The hypocrisy here, and indeed from white evangelical Trump supporters, is astonishing. As of April, white evangelical support for Trump was at an all-time high: 75%. Disturbingly, as he left the White House, President Barack Obama enjoyed the favorable view of only 24% of white evangelicals.
Obama, a man who had no sex scandals, was never accused of sexual harassment, had two children with the same woman, couldn't crack 25% white evangelicals. Of course, race is a huge reason, but Hillary Clinton only received 16% of the white evangelical vote.
Remember that ATT wants this crap property
And the God of the Bible stood by King David who had
multiple wives and concubines, committed adultery with
another man's wife and had her husband killed in a battle.
He even had one of his prophets marry a whore just
to demonstrate how filthy he considered Israel to be.
When you start examining the Clinton's and Obama
with the same "christian" scrutiny as you examine President Trump
I'll consider your objections to Pres. Trump as honest and legitimate.
Mr. Clay, on the other hand, comes across completely intolerant and slanderous. Why the axe to grind Mr. Clay? Your problem isn't with the standards of the Pence's. You have a problem with the direction given to us by your Creator. Who, as Creator, has a moral claim on our lives.
“It comes down to this: If the Pences love their God so much, then they would not sit in a White House with a man who shows no moral compass and said he never asks for forgiveness.“
WE DON’T CARE. Does the author care about the morals of the surgeon who operates on him? No. SAME SITUATION: SURVIVAL
I will also add that God chooses very imperfect servants and messengers--as anyone actually familiar with the Bible can tell you. Shall we mention the story of King David and Uriah the Hittite?
Yes, The Donald has many failings--but are Evangelicals really supposed to let liberal crooks who support the murder of the unborn rule us?
Oh yes, it must have been race - it couldn't possibly have had anything to do with things like his extreme pro-abortion policies. These same people will strongly support candidates like Tim Scott, Marco Rubio, etc. over white liberals but "race is a huge reason" they did not support Obama.
And this kind of stupid commentary passes for intelligent, rationale thought in some circles.
It appears that CNN is taking a cue from Lady (cough, hack) Gaga who made similar remarks about the Pences a week or so ago. All these fine people don’t believe in our right to freedom of religion.
YUP, crazy as a Muslim is he.
A private school doesn’t want a freak show of mentally ill students (or mentally ill parents affecting the students) to turn normal kids into freaks.
That is common sense. Private schools need to be left alone.
The sad part is that some editor approved this piece. “Looks great! Print it!”
Hey Clay,
The argument is not with Mike and Karen Pence. Take up your issues with God. He wrote the book that we believe as total, complete and absolute truth without equivocation. Oh, and by the way, you may want to wear your asbestos suit when you confront God about that (although it won’t do you one bit of good!!!!!). Have a blessed day!!
“the term ‘marriage’ has only one meaning; the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive covenant union as delineated in Scripture. ...”
“This language is disgusting”
Only to deviants and perverts, Clay. Deal with it—millions of people are disgusted with the abnormal, unnatural sexual proclivities of the LHBQTXYZ zoo people who want to force others to accept sexual deviancy and perversion as normal. It’s not.
...a wise Arab over a foolish Christian. Or something like that.
Tired of this Handmaid’s tale balderdash.
There is a religion that requires women to wear tent-like garments. It isn’t Christianity.
There is a religion that considers women to be chattle. It isn’t Christianity.
I could go on, but you get the drift.
if they were the only place I could find news about anything, I still would not watch. listen, read, or believe ANYTHING they produce. And that is the TRUTH.
Well maybe the fact that Pence works with Trump, a man who doesn’t share his values, says that he most likely has nothing wrong with gay people.
THOSE MONSTERS! Can you even imagine them believing something that has been taken for granted for over two thousand years or more and then pledging that it is true and good! They should be sent to a reeducation camp immediately along with those heretic feminists who espouse the ridiculous notion that men can't become women at will and those privileged white people that think they can become black at will!
Jesus was taunted by the religious purists for associating with sinners. And the article is a critique of Pence, not Trump, and Pence is mocked because he’s supposedly a clean-living prude.
