Pete Buttigieg Twists Christianity: 'Salvation' Depends on Being 'Useful'
PJ Media ^ | November 21, 2019 | Tyle O'Neil

Posted on 11/21/2019 6:27:32 AM PST by C19fan

On Wednesday night, Mayor Pete Buttigieg took a break from lecturing the Religious Right about how it isn' Christian enough. Instead, he decided to spout heresy about salvation.

While talking about systemic racism and his challenge connecting with black voters, Mayor Pete said, "I care about this because my faith teaches me that salvation has to do with how I make myself useful to those who have been excluded, marginalized, and cast aside and oppressed in society."

Here the problem the fake Christians on the Left have in their fake teaching

Taking care of the poor and oppressed is a PERSONAL DUTY of the Christian, not one they can push off onto the Govt to do for them

If Petie wants to help he poor and oppressed, he should go do it, not advocate for the Govt to do it for him

There are a multitude of topics that these degenerate Commies should be forbidden to ever talk about. The Bible. The Constitution. Patriotism. Honor. Morals. Integrity. Common sense. Intelligence. Decency.

The list goes on and on and on.

One of my favorite lines on this topic comes from the Howie Carr in the Boston Globe in the 90's. Ted Kennedy had call a proposed tax cut "unchristian". Howie Carr (from memory):

"Ted, as I read the Biblle, Chritianity is about taking what's yours and giving it to your neighbor. Not taking what's your neighbor's and giving it to your other neighbor."
