Evangelicals for Trump

This is related to Quad’s “religion” post..

It’s interesting to me that the Evangelicals overwhelmingly voted for Heathen Trump.  How do they rationalize Trump’s pussy-grabbing etc. and his constant lying??

It’s either “anybody but Hillary “ or they’re “fake Evangelicals.”  Actually, I personally believe that Evangelicals and other religious wackos sincerely believe that they’re the “chosen ones” and they have all the answers and non-Evangelicals etc. “simply just don’t get it.”

I’m still wondering how they ignore - shut-out- Trump’s actions and lying....

Anybody have a thought?

they desire control.  To me that proves they do not have faith in God and they are terrified of change and progression.

they like the tax exemptions and having control over who they give their money to; and evangelical preachers for obvious tax reason of the almighty dollar to live lavish lifestyle.  

Evangelicals would vote for Satan himself if he were on the ballot..they have a pretty good start with Godless Trump and pedophile Moore..

Any hypocrite can called himself/herself Evangelical. Can't fool the creator of the Universe.

Evangelical's is too broad a brush. There are plenty of Evangelicals who are not Trumpets. However, I'd bet the vast majority of Fundamentalists are. Who else are Fundamentalists? Radical Islamist's.

Back to your question. "I’m still wondering how they ignore - shut-out- Trump’s actions and lying.... "

They use just the particular passages of the Bible to justify their beliefs, rather than abide by what the Bible, particularly the New Testament, teaches. They also fall back on the idea of redemption. Trump had several quake pastors speak to his redemption, during his candidacy. That permitted the Christian Republicans to vote for him in clear conscience. Of course, nearly everyone knew that was pure bs. In the end, it's all about 'right to life' and protecting religious freedom, even if it means making a deal with the devil.

Nits are the eggs of head lice.  So picking a nit means searching for something very, very small.

Just kidding. Thanks for the clarification. I suspected it was wrong, but I was too lazy to search for the correct word.
