(14,901 posts)Someone who thinks Catholics have their theology wrong, right?
So desecrating the grave of a *heathen papist* is what? Oh, right, completely irrelevant to a sanctimonious sectarian Christian.
He might as well have said "I'm gonna vote for Trump even if he does something I don't give a shit about!"
Wow, dude. You baller, bro.

Christianity is supposed to be about fixing yourself and helping others, not the other way around.
I'm going to remember it and throw it in smug faces when they try to claim sanctimony.

(25,952 posts)They don't love Jesus or care about heaven and hell, because none of it is real to them but the money and the power right here and now.
That, and a really unhealthy obsession with other people's sex lives.
Wow.

They're losing followers and money so they're going to latch on that much harder to Trump thinking it will help them. In the long term however I think this will just alienate more people, especially younger voters.
Not that I in any way consider what these self promoting so called 'christians' practice following the teachings of Jesus as described in the 4 gospels. They're more like what he fought & warned against.
