Ben Carson once gently questioned Donald Trump's Christian faith, but on Friday Bobby Jindal went much further. The Louisiana governor explicitly and repeatedly ridiculed Trump's faith, effectively accusing him of faking his Christianity before an evangelical conference that had heard the GOP frontrunner speak only hours earlier. Jindal, who is lagging at 0.3 percent in the national polls for the Republican presidential nominee, came onto the stage at the Values Voter Summit in Washington holding a book. Jindal joked with the audience, saying that Trump -- who on Friday morning held up what he said was his childhood Bible before that same audience -- had left his Bible behind. The punchline: Jindal raised the book for the cameras. It was Trump's bestseller "The Art of the Deal." "[Trump] said that his favorite book was the Bible," Jindal said, later in the speech. "He couldn't name one verse." "Folks, he hasn't read the Bible. You know he hasn't read the Bible because his name's not in the Bible." Many in the audience of more than 1,000 evangelicals laughed and clapped. Jindal received even louder cheers when he described Trump as a "narcissist" who might appeal as an entertainer but would be dangerous as a leader. "We conservatives have a choice," Jindal said. "Are we going to turn to our conservative principles... or are we going to turn to a man who believes in nothing but himself."

“it doesnt take a genius nor a HERO to call out the “agnostic” Bible waving would be candidate from New York City”
I will not get into a argument with you about Trump; I have seen your posts before and they always contain mindless statements like the above. People normally evaluate candidates based on their campaign themes, not venomous tirades about what they think the candidate’s heart life is.

Authenticty a VERY important Aspect of anyones PLATFORM.... isnt this guy’s strong suit..
to wit

Im certain that the would be candidate’s own words SHOULD throw adequate light on his Authenticity
I hope that wasnt too facetious nor COMPLEX!
I understand. But sometimes God will use the most unsuspecting people to do His will. It is replete throughout the Holy Bible. This election may bring Trump closer to God. That’s a BIGGER WIN! I do believe Trump would be very friendly to Christians. I sense that in my spirit. God is working here and I put my full faith and trust in the Lord Jesus!
What religious litmus test do you apply to the other candidates, as well as yourself ? Hypocritical religious attacks against Trump create sympathy for him.
Trump doesn’t really understand that we all sin and that we do have to confess our sins. I sent him a message on this.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)
“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He (God) is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:8-9)
hes a hypocrite or a moron
neither of those conditions is accpetable in a POTUS.
Christainaity demands asking for forgiveness..its the root!!!!
Trump either doesnt GET that or doesnt care
if he doesnt GET IT it means hes severely retarded
if he DOES hes a stunningly open hypocrite
as to the other candidates THEY HAVENR MADE such statements as trumps ....so...... they get a pass for the moment
trump failed the litmus test for AUTHENTICITY...
If you spent more time advocating for your candidate, he might not be low in the polls.
Instead you work tirelessly only helping the GOPe bring down Trump.
Your candidate must be lackluster and could only win in this shameful manner.
One can count on your diligent efforts and Carl Rove must pay you well.
Who the hell are you anyway, are you some perfect Saint?
ita SEPTEMBER 2015
the election is November 2016
either donalds a hypocrite or a moron
CHRISTIANITY requires acknowledgment of a SAVIOR....who PAID for our SINS

Who the hell are you anyway, are you some perfect Saint?
how terribly RES{ECTUF OF YOU!!!
IM FORGIVEN and DONALD IS A PRETENDER!!!
ADIOS!
You did not answer the question. Which religious litmus test do you apply to the other candidates, as well as yourself ? Are you a hypocrite portraying your candidate,Ted Cruz, in a bad light ?
Sincerely,
True, real and perfect Christian.
He says he is forgiven. I guess he forgive himself. I mean how would we know?
Give it a rest, Piyush.
Such a profound reply; I cannot count the number of posts from antiCatholics who claim their sins are forgiven. 25And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
Mark, Catholic chapter eleven, Protestant verses twenty five to twenty six,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James
he stated....that he did not need...to be forgiven...

the WOuld Be Candidates staement was in relation to his alleged Christianity
AUthentic Christians know they NEED to be forgiven
that sort of counts the Would Be Candidate from MYC...OUT
Why don’t you mind your own business. Who are you? Are you the decider on other people’s relationship to God?
You do not know what is other people’s hearts. We are all sinners, so quit csating stones. Worry more about yourself. I believe God hates gossip and you can’t seem to stop.
God will take care of the judgment.
Donnie CLAIMS to be a CHrisitian CORRECT??
the point is that Donnie either doesnt KNOW what BEING a CHRISTIAN IS ......and pretends to ........or he does know and doesnt CARE!
The BIBLE contains the standard and DONNIE has not MET THAT STANDARD while claiming he IS a Christian
Its not MY standard......... its GOD’S STANDARD
