Me too. I’ve tried to abstain from too many comments today while lurking and reading the incoming feeds.

None of this was new “news”, as it had been out there a long time. I remember Rubio hinting at it, and that video from Anonymous was a clear warning this was in the pipeline.

If it were totall bull$hit, Cruz would be threatening lawsuits, and vehemently denying that any of these liaisons took place. He did not. Instead, he blamed Trump, while calling it all garbage. That fits his pattern, IMO, except this time there was no plausible deniability.

This just started. And as Anonymous said, it will go viral on social media. It would not be such a big deal if Cruz had not portrayed himself as a pure Christian. But then again, there are two types of believers: those who believe, and those who try to convince others that they believe. If you have to convince me you are a Christian, your actions always tell another story.

You mean like he did today? Or wasn’t that ‘vehemently enough’ to confer innocence?

Well, isn’t religious belief a private matter anyhow? Or, a least it should be between a man and God.

Yes, that convincing part stood out to me early on, prior to Iowa.

Christians don’t have to profess their faith.

Carson is a Christian. I don’t recal him or his team pointing that out all the time. Perhaps I forget now.

The folks here were selling it, and I am absolutely sure some of them were connected.

That left me thinking he wasn’t what he said he was.

Using your faith for political gain is verboten.

It just isn’t something you do. You conduct yourself as a Christian and people will figure it out real quick.

Well, they figured this out real quick too. Look at how he was rejected across the South.

” If you have to convince me you are a Christian, your actions always tell another story.”

I have several life experiences that prove the above. I’m always wary of those that carry a bible and proclaim their Christianity to me. My head always says RUN!
