Dem candidate touts prayer

[Crazyhole]

Marianne williamson, on Twitter, asked for people to pray for hurricane Dorian to change course. She deleted the post shortly thereafter after being attacked by leftists.

On Tuesday in an interview with the New Yorker she said "I didn't think the left was so mean. I didn't think the left lied like this".

Is there room for a person that believes in spirituality in the democrat party?

THe left hates religion, hates prayer, and hates anyone who goes to Church on Sunday. If you don’t believe me just look at the most loudmouth lefties on this board

You're a goddamn moron, and liar. You aren't hated, you aren't persecuted. Your views are hated because they are beyond stupid and you can't accept the fact that people have proven you to be a lying moron so you lie more about being hated.

Why aren't DS or Joe whining about people hating them or their religion? It's just you, the coolers number one whiny little bitch.

The left "hates religion, hates prayer, and hates church goers?!?!??!Good grief. What utter nonsense!
Let's look at the frontrunners:

• Joe Biden is a Practicing Catholic and the first Catholic Veep. He thought about becoming a priest when he was a young man.
• Pete Buttigieg is a Practicing Episcopalian.
• Although Bernie Sanders is Jewish, some call him the most “Christian” of the candidates. Although not a Christian, Sanders is still ironically referred to by some as the most “Christian” candidate because of his belief in helping others and reaching out to the poor.
• Elizabeth Warren grew up in the Methodist Church and was a Sunday School teacher.
• Kamila Harris grew up in the Baptist Church.

A bunch of people who confuse socialism with actual charity and think slaughtering the unborn somehow squares with their Christianity, many of whom don’t actually practice. It’s no wonder someone like you supports these clowns given you think that God and the Bible sanctions abortion

Sanders really looked super-christian when he spouted off about a baby making noise at one of his rallies. Almost reminiscent of Hawkeye Pierce in the final episode of MASH where he told the mom to shut her baby up and she suffocated it.

Hawkeye Sanders. Has a nice ring to it. Too bad the millennials don't get that reference.

Also what do you mean by Sanders is “Christian” because he wants to “help the poor”? Are you suggesting Jews don’t want to help the poor? He’s an ethnic Jew.

Are you just rehashing anti-Semitism you read on your typical left wing blogs these days?

You are literally dumber than dog shit

Also, LMAO at Bernie being the most Christian of the Dem candidates because he wants to help the poor. He has the means to help out an awful lot of poor people on his own but it doesn't look like he's taking that initiative.

He doesn’t even realize that suggesting this is wildly anti-Semitic. Jews don’t care about the poor so he must be “the most Christian candidate”!

Anti-Semitism is so rampant on the left that these clowns don’t even know when they’re engaging in it

I'm so glad Trump had a 'change of heart' about abortion so he could be a good Christian and not a lefty clown.

Do you care to comment about your insinuation that Sanders must be some sort of honorary Christian to "give to the poor" since apparently Jews do not?

(PS- Bernie Sanders does not give shit to the poor. The highest he's ever given was 2% of his earnings at the same time when he was buying his 3rd vacation mansion)

Helping the poor isn't even one of the central themes in the new testament. There are a few references but it's not like helping the poor is the most important aspect of Christianity.

Shookster must be one of those "Christians" that BQ was referencing who thinks the foundation of Christianity is not God sending his son to die on the Cross to solidify the sanctity of Man.

He backed it up in the townhall with comments that amounted to promoting eugenics in poor countries.

there are plenty of liberals that are christian/spiritual, but not todays democratic party itself. they seem to have force christianity out of their party all together. i think its really odd.

Yep, he sure did. Mr "Honorary Christian" stated that he wants us the US to fund the slaughter of unborn in poor countries, where socialists don't want more unwashed poor people coming into the world, all in an effort to control populaces for the sake of the climate.

This guy is a disgusting cretin. He hides his love for communism and eugenics under the guise of "democratic socialism" and dolts on the left eat it up.

The very notion that Trump’s GOP is somehow more “Christian” while Biden’s and Buttigeig’s Democratic Party is not is pure baloney.

Plus you’ll just count all the Dem Jews as Christians if they “care for the poor” since you’ve asserted that Jews cannot do this themselves as practitioners of Judaism

I honestly can't tell if you are just trying to appear stupid, or actually this stupid.

im not religious and i dont pretend to be. as an outsider it seems like rep generally tout their christianity more than the dems do. whether or not they are actually christians is another story. it just seems reps tend to push themselves as being more christian than the dems do.

 

[UCFBS]

I really don't understand the alleged party of 'inclusion' today.

This is because back in the 1970s the "Christian Right" movement became a thing inside the Republican Party.

It has diddily-squat to do with actual religion and everything to do with promoting a hardline, conservative take on social issues like school prayer, abortion, creationism, homosexuality, euthanasia, and sex education in schools.

We don't hate it, but it's such a hypocrisy. Also, all religions are made up (all 4800) of them world wide. They have zero to do with science and reality and thoughts and prayers are make believe.

You heard it here first folks. Dumb has reached a new level, unlikely to ever be surpassed.

But isn't that what people do when they don't understand something? Even more so when it cannot be explained by science? Isn't that why a lot of physicists believe in a 'creator' of the universe as well, some entity or coalition of being that made the rules of the universe we study?

And does it really require religion to have 'blind faith' in anything? E.g., There are a lot of popular environmental myths that aren't far from the same either. Lots of people self re-enforcing ideas that are easily dispelled with physics and engineering, and not very grounded in science or reality either.

I'll never knock anyone for 'seeking truth' and 'thinking of others.' The biggest problem with the US Media is that they fail to understand that a lot of Christians in the US are actually full of giving, humility and they do very much think of others.

It's too bad there is such a candidate in the Democratic party that literally understand that, and that is considered 'incompatible' with the platform. I think that says everything about what's wrong with the US Media and how it forces even Democratic candidates to drop their own belief systems.

Harry Reid, now in retirement, has long complained about this.

I don't really understand your post. Most Religions aren't just based on thoughts, they are also based on events, some of which probably didn't really happen, or at least didn't happen in the way a specific religion portrays it. You don't consider that as being made up? Or are you just specifically talking about prayers? Because sure, prayers are obviously real, but they also basically exist due to Religion, which may or may not be based on unreal events.

I dunno about that. Last Saturday I thought Nebraska was going to beat CU with a 17-0 halftime lead.

It is just pandering to voters for the most part, nothing more.

i agree. i just find it odd that the dems dont pander using religion as much as the reps do.

If you think that's all religion is about, then I don't know what to tell you.

Answer me this ... who takes care of and settles the most legal refugees, let alone undocumented residents, in the US? Do you think it's the government?

I'm actually against organized religion, but damn if the Progressives and US Media aren't making it impossible to not defend Christians in the US these days!

We would be so f'd without faith based charities, who are overwhelmingly Christian in the US.

How was this politician 'pandering'?
I thought she was showing great humility and thought for her fellow Americans and other people

Apparently you haven't been paying attention to the Pete Buttigeig campaign.

 

[Cubs79]

I think they do to an extent, put Republicans tend to specifically pander to Evangelicals. And a lot of the issues used to pander to them wouldn't go over well with the Democratic base.

I didn't say Marianne Williamson was pandering, I was talking about Republicans and politicians in general. Although Williamson is running for president, she has not held any sort of office in her life and is more known for being an author, so I wouldn't really consider her a politician.

Okay, I'll meet you half-way.

At the same time, my point remains ... what happened to the party of alleged 'inclusion' ?

This has nothing to do with what I said or what I responded to. I most certainly didn't say Religious people or groups haven't done good things, so I don't know why you are implying I was arguing against that. But doing good things in the name of a god, also doesn't automatically equate to that god being real, which gets to the part I was talking about with regards to what he considers to be "made up".

You do realize that the Democratic party is the party that will not tolerate any religious thought at this point, correct?

I mean, it's right there. It won't be tolerated ... at all. That's my point.

They are literally not realizing how much good exists -- not just some, but most -- of what Christians do and fund in this country.

Even for alleged 'Liberal' causes. That's my huge point! Especially when the government fails them!

Just to be clear, her tweet wasn't just asking people to pray with regards to the hurricane. Her tweet seemed to be suggesting that mind power and meditation could actually turn the hurricane. It was an odd tweet for someone wanting to be president, that's all.
