Trump has given validity to evangelical prejudice, but it has been there long before trump slithered into the room.

Religion does more good in promoting the well being of a society, so much so that the Chinese recognized that allowing their citizen the right to practice their religion created calm and stability.

In this nation the left is making every effort to destroy religion because religion views homosexuality as being against God's laws of nature.

Religion, a belief in God a belief in something greater than ourselves propels people to perform selfless acts for the benefit of our society. conversely secularism connotes a preoccupation with one's self, a belief in nothing. secularism is soulless

With religious people homosexuality simply means hate the sin love the sinner

HE is he alpha and omega.

Does this writer believe that there are no black evangelicals?

I guess now that the Russia story has no legs it's time to trot out the old standby, racism.

After this nonsense fizzle out it will be the old tried and true, "tax breaks for the rich" while the poor suffer.

What else does the left have? They have become totally predictable.

:agree:

Well, I had decided not to respond to the original post by Wiotte because an article in the Los Angeles Times is so obviously prejudiced. But after I saw Rubicon's response I decided to chime in in support.

The allegation that "White Evangelicals" are racist is so ludicrous that it hardly seems worthy of bothering to refute it. One only needs to point to the self-sacrifice of millions of White missionaries to Africa, China, and South America for over a century, and nothing more really needs to be said.

Missionaries whose sole motivation was to introduce others to the love of Christ, at the cost of personal comfort, disease, and even death, are truly maligned by accusations of racism.

Several years ago my home church "adopted" a village in western Africa and periodically sends teams of lay people to assist in improving the living conditions in that village. Our congregation has funded digging several fresh water wells to provide people with safe, sanitary, drinking water.

A while back my church promoted the purchase of efficient wood burning stoves for people in outlying areas of South America who were still cooking over open fires. I am not blowing my own horn when I say that I personally funded the full cost of one of those stoves.

This whole "White Christians are racists" theme is just another Liberal attack on Conservatives of every type. The writers make fools of themselves in attributing motives to Christians that are transparently false.

The term and application of "racist" has become a distorted political and special interest motivated term.

Meaning BS in today's partisan say anything negative whether true or not society.

As I was once upon a time told by a newspaper editor, the key is to be first. Worry about the accuracy later!!

Why couldn't they do things for themselves? They can't figure out how to dig a well?

Did ANYTHING ever improve or did what you built become run down and broken only to have you have to do it for them again a year later?

They are NOT "us" you should have figured that out by now.

If you were really told that, the editor was an idiot.

"Get It First, But First Get It Right” was the slogan of the International New Service (INS), founded by newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst in 1909. The slogan is cited in print from 1923. The INS combined with the United Press in 1958 to form United Press International (UPI).

The slogan has been unofficially adopted by other news professionals as an industry motto. Television news anchor Walter Cronkite (1916-2009) often used the phrase (shortened to “Get it first, but get it right").

For a short while I wrote for a newspaper. Accuracy was paramount. These days that doesn't seem to be the case.

The subject was the allegation that Evangelicals were racist, and my post was demonstrating that the claim was not true.

Your monomania about Blacks is getting tiresome.

What do you think blacks were/are? They were found in Africa without written language...no wheel...no draft animals...living in straw huts...no agriculture, scraping in the dirt for roots and grubs. The Neanderthals had MORE culture and art than the blacks.

Guest, guest guest

Take a ride to some of the remote areas of this great nation of ours and you will get an eyeful of what poverty inflicts on otherwise decent human beings.

Before you condemn an entire race consider with just one example that your absolutism is greatly misdirected. That example concerns the surviving parishioners of the hate racing Dylan Roof who murdered in cold blood innocent people. I can't imagine the courage and the intelligent application it took for those folks to forgive and to pray for Dylan Roof. I am in awe

Consider Martin Luther King's admonition "a man should be judged by the content of his character and not the color of his skin. King was not the first to speak to this issue.

There may be poverty...but not the violence that infests the black neighborhoods. A white neighborhood may be poor but it's not a war zone...there isn't the murder rates the black neighborhoods have. Compare the murder rates of the black inner cities to ANYWHERE...there is NO comparison.

Really? Dylan Roof? You're going to bring THAT up again? How about ALL the blacks killing people since then. In Chicago or Baltimore, or E St Louis...there are more killed by blacks in one weekend...EVERY weekend, than Dylan killed.

Blacks murder in cold blood 10X more frequently than whites.

Lets LOOK at their "character"...

WHAT do they do to EVERY school they become the majority in? Destroy it.

What do they do to EVERY neighborhood they become the majority in? Destroy it.

What do they do to EVERY town/city they become the majority in? Destroy it.

Tell me...what DO they bring to the table that we would want/need?

Maybe they're already full? Their own parishioners?

Maybe they DON'T want their place WRECKED...DESTROYED by the black animals like what happened during Katrina. Blacks DESTROYED the NO stadium. Blacks DESTROYED the places they were sent.

Blacks DESTROY...everything...everywhere...it's what they do. It's WHY nobody wants them around.

Joseph Preston, a former(?) KKK leader was arrested for discharging a firearm during the Charlottsville alt-right riot.

Yeah, peaceful KKK, white supremacist, and retarded alt-right kookaboos.

Maybe the Trumpanzee will pardon Preston, too. :crap2:

Religion and politics can't "legally mix" unless it goes back to the Supreme Court, which has already ruled on it. Everson vs. Board, Supreme Court decision said there is a wall of separation between church and state, called for in the First Amendment and using contemporaneous documents from the Founding Fathers regarding their views. Take a civics class.

And I'm talking WAY before the Egyptians...40,000 some say 70,000 years ago, Neanderthals were drawing those beautiful animals.

I assume that you are not a Christian. I say that because Christians believe that Jesus IS GOD. GOD's word in the Bible DOES mention gays several times. If you do not believe me, try reading it. It's an interesting read. I am only correcting you, not attempting to get into an argument about gays. I'm not interested in the subject.
