Ben Carson’s Violent History Ended As A Seventh Day Adventist – Do Gun Control Beliefs Make Him Fake?
In a new interview, Ben Carson’s violent history has come to light based upon the admissions of the 2016 GOP candidate. The retired neurosurgeon was once well known for separating conjoined twins, but when he was a teen he used those same hands for violence, including assault and stabbings.
Carson says those days are well behind him, but the source for this amazing change in the teenage Carson goes back to his beliefs as a Seventh Day Adventist Christian. But some say those same beliefs conflict with Carson’s gun control stance, with some so going so far as to claim Carson is not an authentic Adventist.
In a related report by the Inquisitr, Donald Trump says he does not understand why Ben Carson’s poll numbers continue to rise, and Trump even referred to Carson’s energy levels as being “lower than Bush.” Trump even made a joke out of the situation, saying, “Donald Trump falls to second place behind Ben Carson. We informed Ben, but he was sleeping.”
During the Meet The Press interview, Chuck Todd asked Carson directly if people mistook his “soft-spokenness” with a lack of energy.
“I think so,” Carson replied. “I have plenty of energy. But, you know, I am soft-spoken. I do have a tendency to be relaxed. I wasn’t always like that. There was a time when I was, you know, very volatile. But, you know, I changed.”

“As a teenager. I would go after people with rocks, and bricks, and baseball bats, and hammers. And, of course, many people know the story when I was 14 and I tried to stab someone.

Nope, not a Jeb fan.
Yes. Is he running for office in 2016?
“They do not possess an immortal soul and there is no consciousness after death (commonly referred to as “soul sleep”).”
If there is no immortal soul why bother to believe in some religion that requires all sorts of rules to be followed (strange ones, not “love thy neighbor as theyself” or “do onto others as you would they do onto you”. There are obviously good pragmatic reasons for following those.
But not drinking, restricted diet. You could just be a vegan straight edge hipster and get the same diet without having to buy into Mary Eddy Baker’s weird beliefs.
I don’t get it.
I couldn’t agree more.
