Breitbart.com ^ | September 10, 2015 | Pam Key

Wednesday at a press conference before his rally in Southern California, Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson took a swipe at his rival Donald Trump by questioning his faith in God when asked about what he saw as the biggest difference between he and the GOP front-runner.

Real Christians don’t attack another’s faith out of the blue. Carson actually believes his inflated poll numbers and thinks he can take out Trump. What you want to bet that he and Fiorina have made some pack with Rupert Murdoch. Carson gets the nomination and puts Fiorina on as his VP. The CNN debate will start off by hatchet man Hewitt asking Trump why he said Fiorina was ugly and Carson was not a “great doctor”. Mark it down.

I read more of his comments from that same interview. He said he was more humble than Trump. If you have to brag about how humble you are, maybe you need to do some soul searching.

This position will be Carson’s political demise:

“Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? I’m sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workers—we all know that—yet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families.”

In other words, it looks like nothing would change on illegal immigration under a Carson Presidency.

Neither will Fiorina, but her and Carson now are on the attack Trump bandwagon. Fiorina I can see. She has nothing to lose. But Carson has disappointed me. Really can’t understand his support. Can you imagine him sitting across the table from Putin?

He attacked Trump first. He should have kept quiet. God is the only judge.

Oh shut up, Carson. You haven’t a prayer of making it to the WH. Go back into ‘retirement’.

Its far more than just sabbath observance. They are restorationists like Mormons and JWs. They make Sabbath observance a requirement (the requirement) for salvation, add works, etc.

At least they believe in the Trinity. My mom was ex-PCUSA I am quite familiar with their liberalism on social issues, but theologically they are still sound.

Not even a good try on your part.

BTW SDAs are also pro abortion and often pro gay. Your argument is invalid.

//Real Christians don’t attack another’s faith out of the blue. //

They do if there is theological cause. Christians are to speak out against false teachings and false religions.

The only thing I did like about Carson was him telling the truth about some cases of homosexuality. He said many go in prison straight and come out homosexual..........and he is exactly right. Homosexuality is a learned trait and weak men or women that go to prison will often become someone’s boyfriend or girlfriend, as a way of coping and staying alive. They are released from prison confused, ashamed of themselves, have no God in their life, no support system, and immediately think they are a homosexual for the rest of their life. Carson was right, but when attacked by the media (for telling the truth and telling the media they were wrong), it took him about 5 minutes to back down and say he was sorry and he was wrong. So as Donald Trump would say “he acted like a little baby” instead of being a man and telling the media where to stick it!
This is not a man with a backbone that should be anywhere near the presidency.
