Discussion: Church Trump Claims To Attend Says He's 'Not An Active Member'

Trump is a lot smarter than Palin, though that still does not make him smart…

And whenever I have seen him or his entourage in NYC, I cross over to the other side of the street…no desire to even make contact with that clown.

Of course there are, he stands no chance in the general election. That’s why I am hoping he wins the GOP nomination. Even Bernie Sanders will beat him in the general, though Sanders would not beat Jeb or some of the other Republicans. GO DONALD!!! for now.

I never knew Norman Vincent Peale was that reactionary. I always thought of him as mainstream Protestant. Rev.Wright, whom Fox still mercifully flogs is quite mild by comparison.

It’s just additional evidence pointing at Trump’s weak attempt to pander to the Christian conservative crowd with his “my love of the Bible is HYUUUUUGE” B.S.

…Offending another segment of Society--------the Presbyterians-----------------I hope.

REPLY: He was the first modernized/televised Prosperity Pastor, with all the cons and grifters televangelists we are stuck with today following in his well-ploughed wake.

Nobody gets yoouger erections over Reagan than him! Ask anybody! Everybody knows.

And it’s a classy business isn’t it? That’s the point he wouldn’t just lend his name and personal appearance to a non-classy place.

Irrational fear of Catholics was much more mainstream then than it is today and a ready ploy for self-important Protestant leaders wanting attention.

Think of him as the white 1950’s-60’s version of Creflo Dollar.

Yes, that’s why JFK had to give his infamous Church-State, I don’t take orders from the Vatican speech in the middle of the 1960 campaign in Texas no less.

Earlier this week, when Trump was asked by reporters about his religious practices, he said, “I’ve just had great experiences at church, whether it is Sunday School or whatever it may be, but now I go to Marble Collegiate Church.”

Soon to be purchased by The Donald, and renamed “Trump Marble Collegiate Church.”

oh, he’ll spew two or three more things, to keep the press busy. this will end up by the wayside, as it should. who cares what, if any, church he attends?

He need not recite his favorite verse. Obviously it’s Matthew 19:24, amiright?

Or is it that blessed-are-the-meek thing?
