Never test God or call on Him to sing. He’ll get you for that.

Besides, God’s got Ineffability. It’s beyond the ken, all part of the plan, and for your own good.

None of this bad stuff would happen if you didn’t make Him do it. Why do you make Him hurt you?

There’s a bit near the one minute mark, where one of the guys describes Trump as a man " . . . who not only says what he believes, but is willing to put himself in jeopardy for what he believes . . ."

Trump is looking a little dubious right there. ROFL!

Just ran into someone on Facebook who is always talking about Christianity, and has always seemed to be the most reasonable about it. But she seems to be advocating for Trump. I mean, she even called out Josh Duggar and Kim Davis.

But she’s on the Trump bandwagon. So I’m actually asking her how she can vote for the most blatantly anti-Christian candidate. The things people admire him for are all the things that Christians aren’t supposed to do.

That guy mentioned speaking his mind: the Bible says that we have to bridle our tongues. That they are lit on fire from the fire of hell. He’s also about as prideful and boastful as Lucifer himself.

If he were running as a Democrat (and he very well could), he’d be on the antichrist list.

You know what? As big of a phony he is and will be out of the race by Xmas, I’m very glad he continued to frown like a child while the blessing happened.

Basically falling once again for the trope that if the Republicans could just put a token black guy on the ticket they would win the African American vote.

My Fox News watching 77 year old mother.

We’re in the waiting room of a hospital where I’ve just walked out of an outpatient procedure. My mother says how much she likes [del]Hermann Cain[/del] Ben Carson and “Oh, and he’s black too!” as if that’s some magic bullet for the Republicans to win.

Very very cringeworthy experience.
