Franklin Graham Calls For 'Special Day Of Prayer' To Protect Trump From 'Enemies' Back to article

I wonder how sinful Trump is to need so many prayers.

…Pretty sure some dude a few years ago had something to say about worshiping false idols…

Franklin, you are not the arbitor of who is Christian and who is not (per his criticism of Mayor Pete), and you seem to have missed the meaning of the part of the Bible warning about false idols.

I have no doubt there is a grift angle to this effort, as usual. But more certainly there is a ‘stop critical thinking among the flock, by whipping out the equating of the Don to imagery of the Bible.’ It is a typical mind-control tactic within cults.

Maybe this is the (divine) intervention that Nancy asked for last week.

Will Michele Crazy-eyed Bachmann join him?

castor_troy · May 28, 2019, 2:11pm

But I am. And I call bullshit that any of these people are Christians.

You can’t claim to be of a religion where you don’t actually follow the tenets of it.

They may be of a religion, but they need a different name for it.

Are he and his wife ‘praying’ with the pool boy or without him?

That is the overwhelming question.

That is 250 self proclaimed Christian Leaders.

Dear youth of America, take note. Franklin Graham is Exhibit A of a charlatan and false prophet.

sanni · May 28, 2019, 2:13pm

The “I am right and you are going to hell!” religion, perhaps?

ANNFFL · May 28, 2019, 2:13pm

“targeted 2020 candidate Pete Buttigieg, who identifies as a Christian and a gay man. Franklin Graham suggested that those values couldn’t be synonymous.”

While I’m unaffiliated myself, one thing I do know about true believers is that they don’t judge others’ beliefs.

castor_troy · May 28, 2019, 2:15pm

I’m good with that. They can even call themselves “Christian 2.0” for all I care.

Just stop to pretend that they follow the teachings of Jesus, when all of their actions demonstrate the opposite of what he taught.

Sharia Christian law warrior Frankie Graham should be praying to protect our Democracy and Constitution from Trump. He got the wrong hallucination from the mushrroms.

old_curmudgeon · May 28, 2019, 2:16pm

One day will not be enough. Indeed, a month would not be enough.

old_curmudgeon · May 28, 2019, 2:18pm

I am going to Hell, and I’m OK with it.

Some years ago, I looked at all the people who are sure they’re going to Heaven, and realized that spending eternity with them would be truly hellish. So I’m going to the other place.

“In the history of our country, no president has been attacked as he has"

I know…poor Trump.

There is a crazy billionaire out there paying people to find his birth certificate to prove he’s a foreigner, half the opposition party claims he is either an atheist or a Muslim, the Senate majority leader threw out his oath of office to proclaim his #1 priority is to make the Trump a one term president and the media had a fit over a tan suit he wore and that he took off his suit coat in the oval office.

Thoughts and Prayers for Trump he has it the worst ever.

benthere · May 28, 2019, 2:21pm

The extreme sins and excesses of Franklin Graham’s youth are coming back to haunt him, his brain, and more importantly, our country.

southerndem · May 28, 2019, 2:21pm

I believe the only hope for him, and this nation, is God
I hope it is just as effective as thoughts and prayers to prevent gun violence…
