Why did he go there???

[VinL]

I think it was a radio forum in Iowa with Huck and St.Rick— someone must have asked.

"Why did he go there?"

Because he's right. The Constitution prohibits a formal religious test for public office, and - in this anti-Christian era - that protects YOU as much as it protects Muslims.

However, the Constitution does NOT prohibit citizens from voting against persons of a particular faith if they believe that faith is hostile to their own beliefs and values, or to the Constitution itself.

[Psalm 144]

Because he isn’t as grand as his supporters wish. He is that eleven foot safety line when you needed twelve.

“Why did he go there???”

Because there is a natural law, missed by Einstein and all the philosophers, that forces politicians to make comments on any detail that floats by so that they may prove to everyone just what stunning intellects they have. Everyone else calls it “borrowing trouble”, “fishing in troubled waters” or “poking the bear”.

“I am a Constitutionalist” part — I won’t go there.

[Rome2000]

Carson showed showed great courage in his answer and deserves respect for his fortitude.

There already is a mozlum POTUS.

Carson, myself, or anybody else doesn’t have to like it, or think that mozlems should be POTUS.

When the Founders put in the Constitution that there should be no religious test for office, they meant exactly that.

If the crypto-muslim Hussein Obama had not lied about his religion he would never have been POTUS in the first place.

So a mozlum practicing Taquiya and making pretend he is a Christian is not subject to a religious test.
