Besides being opposed to abortion, why would republicans call themselves Christian?

[Dragonlady]

Jobs ..



Give a man a fish he will eat for the day, teach him how to fish he will eat for life



Democrats don't offer jobs ..


.

Democrats created far more jobs than Reagan. Both Clinton and Obama created far more jobs than Reagan, or Bush, or Trump. The things that Republicans talk about doing, the Democrats actually do those things.

 

[Mac1958]

Not seeing a lot of serious answers so far.

You call yourself Christian if Jesus is your Lord and Savior. Whether you are Republican is not a factor.
I thought this was obvious to thinking people.

It can be a little confusing when those of us who are not religious hear that a person is a "Christian" but then observe their behaviors.

There is a regular dichotomy there that can be somewhat dissonant for "thinking people".
.

they usually only have to be right, twice a day.

I no longer put forth a great deal of effort trying to understand these inconsistencies.

This stuff just is what it is. I just get curious once in a while.

Funny that you usually have no such dissonance for any other world religion. Isn't that something? Did you ever examine that? Other religions can certainly have their holy men and women and they are revered by unbelievers.

But Christians run hospitals, give to the poor in record numbers, go abroad to serve....nope. still, never good enough.

There is a reason for that.

I'm sure you would hate it.

You didn't ask about my opinions of other world religions (you brought it up), so you just made something up and ran with assumptions.

This is what I'm talking about.
.

Christians more likely to give to the poor than non-believers. As if we needed a study for this:

Religious Americans Give More, New Study Finds

 

[McRocket]

Why? Because all major religions are for the weak and/or the ignorant and or the desperate.

And that - sadly - describes many Republicans in 2018.

You spew inconsistencies and non-facts and sit up on your mountain, very self-satisfied. As you're doing now.

You're already wrong about Christians, but whatever Mac.

Well you're just made up a religion where you are your own god. And fashioned that this is for you: the strong, the informed, and the self-contained.

It will last you for your lifetime, if you are very, VERY fortunate.

VERY fortunate.

Oh--and if you are very, very lucky, you might meet a woman who ALSO has fashioned herself as her own goddess, and you two will spend your lives trying to figure out Whose God Wins on that particular day.

Fun! Lovely.

Get into the fight, but don't poo sling from the corner and then pretend you're above it all.

I'll answer any question you'd like. But when you get pissy I lose interest, as I do with anyone else.

Go ahead.

I don't have any questions. You slung poo at Christians like a lazy, unintellectual non-believer. I countered with actual facts. Now I'm supposed to have questions for you?

Not playing, Mac. Rather, wiping the dust from my sandals.

' the bible is my favorite book '

' two corinthians '

He was wrong about that. But as if you have ever read 2 Corinthians either.

lol.... a bit defensive aren'cha? you also love to ASSume

' two corinthians '

if Mr. Trump had been more independent, he could have asked Mrs. Clinton to be VP.

 

[Windparadox]

If you don't see it why can't we have it? Their is so many denomination's Why can't we have mangers in city parks, Christmas trees , Santa's.. Why does that offend a non Christian?

`
How would I know? I'm an unconventional deist...I believe in a supreme divinity, only such a belief is eclectic. The rise of the angry atheist came about the same way the angry trump supporter formed. Demonize a people long enough and they will rise up. The religious right has been using atheists as their whipping boy for so long they finally rose up in the attack mode, separation of church and state concerns. Very similar to what the white males felt being used as a scapegoat by the far left. They elected trump. Both sides created what they fear most.

he had to follow putin's orders & take on manafort's pick of pence or the adulterous, gambling, lying, racist trump would have never won over the fundies.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

This fails as a red herring fallacy.

Omg lol

Do you EVER say anything different or original for fucks sake...

 

[BS Filter]

Talk about some serious cherry-picking of the Bible. Those two issues are just based on “no” rather anything pro-active.

I suppose it’s Republican Jesus that they worship!

You're confused. Jesus never used government to feed and heal the sick. Lefties often confuse government with God because they don't believe in God and rely on government to take care of their every need.

Due to Marxism, because as long as there is a God that gives "Inalienable Rights", no government can take them away, except by the point of a gun...This is the reason why the left has so much lunatic Hatred twoards the US citizens belief in God.

Inalienable Rights
The natural rights theory states that people are born with an equality of some rights, irrespective of their nationality, explains the Bill of Rights Institute. These natural or "inalienable" rights cannot be justly taken away without consent, as these come from nature or God.
