“Do you know who Trump’s pastor was ?”

In a couple of his interviews, he clearly said that his pastor was Norman Vincent Peale.

Just because a man does works of righteousness does that make him holy.

So you admit he has done works of righteousness ? No one said that made him holy... but you.

Compare Benjamin Carson to Donald trump - One announces his good deeds while the other keeps his deeds quiet.

Just because the media publishes an article about Trump doesn't mean he's announcing it. His answer about the Bible was due to being ASKED what his favorite book was , and was months ago.

One operated on the brains of children

What if you found out that Carson had to 'experiment' on the brains from aborted babies to 'improve his skills' ?

while the other stole property from elderly women under eminent domain to build a Casino.

Complete LIE.

He didn't steal it, he tried to use legal means.
In any event, he lost the case and the woman lived out her life in that home. It was recently sold (by her kin) for around $125,000. (She had been offered $1,000,000 to vacate).

I know there will be others whom claim that Carson belonging to the Seventh day adventist Denomination should exclude him because it is not a Christian church.That's all on you, buddy. I've never heard anyone else mention it.

But what about Trump’s limited attendance at a Presbyterian Church.

I don't remember him saying he was perfect, and I doubt any of us are either. I man in his position has responsibilities that 'trump' making it to church every Sunday. I don't remember Jesus saying one had to attend church every Sunday.

Now Trump claims he is like Billy Graham. What hubris to claim he is like Billy Graham!

Again, that is not what he said. He said he understood how Billy Graham felt. The 'reference' is to entering a large auditorium and speaking from your heart, like Billy Graham did.

Thanks, but if I wanted an answer from someone who was paying attention, had read the article, and was a generally well informed, open-minded person, I would have asked you.

Wait. I think I figured it out.

You figured Trump would never put up with a foul mouthed preacher.

True. And if you read post #102, you will see who his minister/pastor was.

I would say a person like that could be very inspiring to a young man.

>> He wasn’t comparing himself to Billy Graham <<

True enough. Probably he was just EQUATING himself.

>> I wonder if he could recite The Lords Prayer. Even Presbyterians ask for forgiveness therein <<

Well, Trump claims to be Presbyterian.

If he really is, then he probably won’t be able to recite the Lord’s Prayer correctly — since everybody knows that the Presbos are confused about debts and trespasses.

I was just trying to make the point that no way would Trump countenance a pastor like Obama’s who cursed America. That is all, I have no idea who might be the pastor at the church Trump attends.
