On Sunday (July 23), an American pastor and televangelist named Hank Kunneman went on an anti-Hindu tirade against Indian-American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy for running as a Republican candidate for the upcoming 2024 US Presidential elections.
At about 51 minutes and 30 seconds into his programme, Kunneman claimed, “We are in danger as a country and listen to me Generation Z and millennials. Those of you, who are watching, may like this new young guy (referring to Vivek Ramaswamy).
“If he does not serve the Lord Jesus Christ and stand primarily for Judeo-Christian principles, you will have a fight with God…What are we doing, even entertaining the fact you’re going to have some dude put his hand on something other than the Bible,” he brazened it out.
The televangelist remarked, “You are going to let him put all of his strange Gods up in the White House and are we just supposed to blink because he understands policies? No.”
His racist remarks received an overwhelmingly positive response from the audience. Hank Kunneman then drew inspiration from the King of Judah, Jehoshaphat, and claimed that God loved him for ‘kicking out idols from his kingdom.’
He went on to fearmonger about Vivek Ramaswamy and claimed how all Presidents of the United States have supported Judeo-Christian values. The pastor then claimed that his God was jealous and that it would not tolerate other Gods.
“It is why our country has been blessed. Whether the presidents have followed Jesus? No. They have been held to a standard – you’re not bringing your idols into our country,” he continued with his bigoted remarks against idolators.
Hank Kunneman claimed, “You know what took Solomon (the wisest King) out? He brought foreign idols into his garden…And I don’t care how good someone’s policies are and how good they sound if they don’t profess the name of Yeshua.”
He added, “Here’s the point. I am not calling someone out. I am saying that we will have a fight with God on our hands if you believe in the God of our Bible (Old Testament and New Testament).”
“There are things that God does not like, that he hates and he is jealous about…And one of the things that he doesn’t like and it’s why he blessed Jehoshaphat because Jehoshaphat was a king that stood up and took out the false idols and brought Israel back to honouring the one true God,” he alleged.
“So America be smarter than that because it won’t matter what the prophet’s prophecy is if we now take on a fight with God over his jealousy…Dangerous and no they would not make a great vice president,” Hank Kunneman concluded his anti-Hindu tirade.
British commentator targets Rishi Sunak for reading the Bible
Earlier in May this year, British conservative political commentator Calvin Robinson called Prime Minister of Britain, Rishi Sunak, a heathen. He was talking about PM Sunak reading the 1:9-17 passage from the biblical book of Colossians at King Charles’ coronation.
Rishi Sunak is a Hindu, and his act of reading the Bible at King Charles’s coronation ceremony became a topic of discussion, with many people hailing it as his commitment to representing the UK’s diversity.
While the PM of the UK always participates in the coronation of the monarch, Rishi Sunak is the first person of colour and the first non-Christian to play such a lead role in the ceremony. However, Calvin Robinson exploited the opportunity to display his Hinduphobia.

Chances are good, I agree.
To be totally honest, I don’t think it matters anymore. America has swallowed the entire bottle of Tylenol. Only time matters now.
I would prefer to be incorrect.
“...Genesis chapter 19.”
Had to look that one up.
“Sodom and Gomorrah Destroyed”
Well, we’re on the way toward that “end reward”, from God, thanks to the leftists, communists, socialists, liberals, atheists, Marxists, anarchists. BLMers, etc etc etc.
A little over the top, but, whatever.
I did see several articles regarding his past connections (ties with Pfizer and his drug company, Roivant), and saw past tweets, etc. I have not come across any “debunking” articles, etc. Perhaps you can post the links - happy to read them.
There are even more reasons why he cannot be allowed into the WH.
I MAY be remiss in that the WRITER is a heathen and has no clue.
Words MEAN something.
Hindus worship demons as gods. They deny the real God. They deny Jesus. They are worse than atheists. India is now in the top ten worst countries for persecuting Christians.
World Religions 101
What is Hinduism?

Hindus in India just attacked three Christian women. When their husbands tried to stop them, the husbands were immediately beaten to death. The women were stripped naked and marched through town, while men continually groped them. The women were then taken to a field and gang raped. The police were part of the crowd that did this. No arrests have occurred.
Everyone has a belief system, which means nothing.
I think this guy might be a little shocked at what some of the previous occupants of the White House “worshipped.” LOL
👍👍👍
“. . . occupants of the White House “worshipped.” LOL”
Do you mean such as Clinton and Monica?
Every president in the history of this country has at least paid lip service to being Christian. We know that many didn’t really believe or take it seriously, but they still put on the pretenses because the country generally was Christian. That a significant candidate for the presidency from a major party does not confess Christianity or even Judaism is a significant departure for this country. When that party is the more openly “Christian” party it is even more significant.
Modi himself is "lower caste", something that our self-proclaimed "elites" never fail to mention, not realising they are giving him a huge electoral boost.
As for the North Eastern states having a PM candidate, their populations are far too small for them to have clout. Far bigger, Industrially advanced states like Tamil Nadu have never had one. Actually most PMs have been from Uttar Pradesh, which has population approaching 300 million. Meghalaya-Nagaland combined may not reach 6 million.
There is only one God. Muslims sag Allah? Jews say Yaweh?
Bhuddists, Hindus have many names. Their ancestors were really confused coming up with so many names and so many “sons of God”.
There is no religious test for President. Change the Constitution if you don’t like that. Else consider the factors that are constitutional.
Rank the prominent politicians. Jimmy Carter was the most Christian president of my lifetime. But a lousy President.
Nixon wore his “Christianity” loudly but was the worst President of my lifetime.
Biden claims to be a Christian. Would you rather have Biden or Rammaswammy deciding what babies to kill? What taxpayers to enslave with EPA regulations to save Mother Earth?
