WOW! Lawrence O'Donnell just called out the so-called Christians, including Trump!

He quoted Jesus saying "Turn the other cheek" not "Hit them back 10x harder". He said even the Old Testament says "Eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, not 10 eyes for an eye and 10 teeth for a tooth".

She not only went against her religion, she advocated something illegal: when you're hit, hit HARDER. O'Donnell pointed out that people are in jail for doing just that.

"...when he finally gets off the golf course and goes overseas."
"...when he thinks about it, if he ever actually thinks."

"turn the other cheek". The man/child is an utter failure in this position and continues to do much damage to our country, our standing in the world and to us. He makes me do this

They have muddied the message and sucked all they can from the Holy Ghost. They're twisted murderers of the Gospels.

Selective Christians only adhere to verses or practices that benefit their personal objectives.
