Stopped going to church bc my pastor was an active Trump supporter. Had a lot of other issues and doubts with the church before that but that was my final straw. When you can preach forgiveness and love and compassion but then turn around and support the absolute antithesis of that, I know you’re full of bullshit.

Really no “schism”. White Evangelicals and likely most white Christians are solidly behind Trump. Headline here gives false hope. So some don’t like Trump? Is DeSantis any better? Or say, a GOP leader that refuses to condemn Trump?

Religion is stupid. Do these people even believe in the Bible or do they have their own version of a book like the Mormons? It’s crazy how they can just proclaim someone their new Jesus.

So please, please, someone who is a Christian and Trump supporter, tell me how you can support a man who would cheat on his wife with a porn star while she was at home with a newborn baby?

Only now that they are loosing, he could continue to be a stain upon all of humanity and the religious would support him completely if he could get back to harming gays and minorities directly. Don’t believe the fake righteousness from some church leaders now, they already showed their face as evil and manipulative. The church and religious zealots made Trump president, they chose to be the servant of hate and evil for power and profit.

If one believes in the Anti-Christ, comparing those attributes to trump would be enlightening. Just saying

A Christian Republican is an oxymoron. It’s like a vegan animal abuser.

Christian Nationalism is racism in Bible drag.

Well, same thing happened with baptists. The racist ones started their own, ‘southern’ Baptist church.

Can you imagine the conflict? The distress?The turmoil, going on in their heads right now? “My pastor says Trump is a scammer, and *he wouldn’t lie*…But Trump says my pastor is a scammer and *he can’t lie*…”
If both are telling the truth then they’ve been lied to by both. If one or both are lying then what else may they be lying about? Who will they have more faith in? Fascinating conundrum. Wish there was a way to see how much of the church Trump takes with him.

I wonder how many of these “Christians” believe wholeheartedly that Jesus is white and that he founded the country? I’ve heard that from way too many people to think it’s a minority.

I know that evangelicalism is faith based, at this point I’ve lost faith in this group of people who consider themselves an evangelical Christian and an orange turd supporter. This guy has been making his tour around the country for 8 years now basically slandering, dehumanizing, and shitting on just about every group of people. Who in the hell is just now turning on him? Gullible morons are all that’s left I’m afraid. Before 2020,I can give a pass and say it was gullible folks, but what’s left now after everything he’s done are true stick their head in the sand morons, and I hope they smoke a turd in hell for supporting him.

Schism shmish’em, Trump ain’t Christian.

>”Trump campaigned for president in 2016 promising that if he was elected, Christians would have power. He gave it to them…And when you have power, you can very quickly lose sight of your principles, your values and your beliefs.”
For the evangelicals power is more important than principle.

I don’t even go to church anymore and it is 100% because of the Trump stuff.

Supporting both Jesus and Trump is like supporting both the USA and Germany during WW2.

If their religion is a farce, why would their politics be any different?

>Costa asked, “The church wasn’t a sanctuary from politics; politics was now part of the church?”
Politics was always part of the church. It’s the reason I always say that the Evangelical movement is a political movement. Most of them just happen to also go to church. Only a handful read the Bible. Fewer still understand what’s in the Bible.

It’s pure blasphemy to have “Jesus” and “Trump” on the same poster.

American Evangelicals simply don’t understand that they’re trying to destroy the very thing that has made religion much more widespread in the United States than in many other developed parts of the world – namely the separation of Church and State.
In most European nations it was precisely the close relationship between the church and rulers/politics that made ordinary people abandon Christianity. They would do well to look at the example of what happened in Ireland when people finally fully realized the horrors that the Catholic Church had committed against children, young women, and a host of other groups because it used its political power to silence dissent and cover things up. Various Christian denominations are trying to do the same thing right now in the USA and it will have the same consequence – and sooner than they realize. If you had said 25 years ago that the Catholic Church in Ireland would be on the verge of extinction someone would have thought you were mad.

If consider yourself a good Christian, you cannot possibly support a brazen heretic like Trump. The two are utterly incompatible.
