Over half of Republicans want to make Christianity national religion
- Thread starter B00Mer
- Start date
Gotta agree 100%.
I know plenty of Republicans and while I may disagree with some of their politics, most are darn good human beings. Most are genuinely principled and would not have Christianity or any of its many brands as the exclusive state sanctioned religion. Like just about everyone else, they know there is plenty of room in the good ol' USA for many diverse types of people. But one thing that there is no room for is exclusionism. And that's what a state sanction religion would lead to.
Statistics can be manipulated to prove anything
I am only going to give you one to stuff up your snout. As I have pointed out before you are one lazy old bug@er. Instead abusing others, about what you nothing of, do a little research on your own. There are hundreds of articles on Wiki telling you exactly how to screw stats. And I am a lady but stupidity always brings out the worst in me.
National religion? Yeah, that seems to be working out so well for all the backward thinking religious States.
Ya ya we Know that you never link to your sources for anything you say because it all comes out of your ***!
Keep blowing smoke....
I don't link most of my posts because this is a discussion forum I am not here to educate stupid and lazy turds. I was here to have a reasonably decent discussion and not to be abused by second graders.
You think I care if you come off sounding like a condescending ol' hag?
We're just trying to help out an old lady......
As you were...............
hahahahaha........OMG, What sort of help could someone with the IQ of a turnip do to help anyone older than 10...... Go try your nonsense on someone else....Oh and learn how to look up what you NEED to come off like someone who at least managed to get through elementary school.
Geezus, you are too free with the truth. CCers don't want the truth; and, that's the truth!

Some people as they get to an advanced age really overate their limited intelligence and expertise.
An expert in one thing doesn't mean an expert in everything....
The Universal way of doing things tends to be more weighted to something being said and then that 'indication' is more likely to not be followed up on as originally said and more often than not it is almost the direct opposite. (when dealing with deception on any level)
Jealous?? Probably not because I didn't mention I spent a month in Europe taking my whole family with me in August , or that I went south earlier this year than usual, with a new car, missing most of the cold weather, or that I spent a week in the Florida Keys and a couple of days in St-Augustine. I drove myself down and will probably drive myself home. So, I am not a tottery old hag. My granddad lived to be 99 years with all faculties intact.
Unfortunately, the human generations that are coming after me will not live as long, will not be as healthy, nor as I am finding out, are nowhere near as intelligent. (Well except for my own family, as they seem to have inherited my genes LOL)
So, continue on as you are doing, do not look anything up and certainly do not try to learn the truth of the information available to you. . It will spoil the view of what you believe to be real or true and that would be a nasty earth changing revelation. Not something all are capable of dealing with.
Republicans who want to make Christianity the national religion need to read Madison's Memorial and Remonstrance since our Founding Fathers did not think that was such a good idea.
9 Times Josh Duggar Lectured People On Family Values Before He Admitted He Was A Child Molester
9 Times Josh Duggar Lectured People On Family Values Before He Admitted He Was A Child Molester | ThinkProgress
Josh Duggar, a reality TV star on TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting and the oldest child of the Duggar clan, admitted that he sexually molested several young girls as a teenager. Duggar only owned up to his conduct after records of a police investigation were obtained by In Touch Magazine. He was never prosecuted because, by the time he was reported to the authorities, the statute of limitations had expired.
Prior to his admission on Thursday night, Duggar spent years crisscrossing the country as a spokesman for “traditional values.” Duggar took a job as executive director of the Family Research Council’s political arm in 2013. In that role, which he resigned on Thursday, Duggar argued that marriage equality and abortion rights — among other things — were destroying the values that he and his family embodied.
Here are nine of Duggar’s most sanctimonious moments:
1. When Josh Duggar argued that an LGBT nondiscrimination measure in Arkansas jeopardized the safety of children:
2. When Josh Duggar argued that marriage equality was destroying the American family:
3. When Josh Duggar appeared at a charity event and talked about how doing evil things to children is the worst:
4. When Josh Duggar attacked Islam for treating women poorly:
5. When Josh Duggar went to Arkansas and said their courts had to reject marriage equality to “defend the American family”:
6. When Josh Duggar praised Chick-fil-A for defending “traditional values”:
7. When Josh Duggar went on the Today Show and talked about how “children are a gift” that require you to look “beyond youself”:
8. When Josh Duggar said that he and his family were the “epitome of conservative values”:

Here are nine of Duggar’s most sanctimonious moments:
1. When Josh Duggar argued that an LGBT nondiscrimination measure in Arkansas jeopardized the safety of children:
Enacting additional laws that are trying to protect one group of people over another is not really the solution and in fact it has the inverse effect on others…We have to make sure we’re standing up to protect the rights of privacy and protecting the well-being of women and children in our cities.
[Right Wing Watch, 12/14]
2. When Josh Duggar argued that marriage equality was destroying the American family:
What’s really at stake here is the American family. Marriage is essential to the American family and every single child deserves a mother and a father.
[Huffington Post, 4/29/15]
3. When Josh Duggar appeared at a charity event and talked about how doing evil things to children is the worst:
In the absence of doing good, Duggar said, “evil comes in to fill the void,” adding, evil done to children is “one of its worst forms.” CCHO is a place they can go and “break that chain (of evil).”
[Daily Record, 4/19/15]
4. When Josh Duggar attacked Islam for treating women poorly:
5. When Josh Duggar went to Arkansas and said their courts had to reject marriage equality to “defend the American family”:
We have to stand up to defend the American family and that’s what’s at stake here. The people of every state should remain free to uphold the marriage as the union of a man and a woman if they so choose.
[Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, 4/29/15]
6. When Josh Duggar praised Chick-fil-A for defending “traditional values”:
7. When Josh Duggar went on the Today Show and talked about how “children are a gift” that require you to look “beyond youself”:
You know, really children are a gift from the Lord and when you look at them that way and you look at them really as more of an investment and really, you know, looking beyond yourself, I think that’s what’s so important.
[Today Show, 6/14/13]
8. When Josh Duggar said that he and his family were the “epitome of conservative values”:
Josh Duggar, the oldest of 19 children, made the rounds Friday at a central Missouri rally for Santorum after previously doing the same in Iowa, Oklahoma, Georgia and many places in between. “Our family is like the epitome of conservative values,” Duggar said. “People connect to us in that way.”
Just another in a long list pf Pharisees in the party of family and moral values.

On Friday night, seven Republican presidential hopefuls gathered around a fake Thanksgiving table in Des Moines, Iowa, for a "Presidential Family Forum" hosted by The Family Leader, an influential Religious Right organization headed by Bob Vander Plaats.
Moderator Frank Luntz promised the event would be an "adult conversation" about the issues important to the conservative Christian activists in the audience and the candidates bent over backwards to appeal to these voters, with Carly Fiorina declaring at one point that all the people on stage, as well as all the people in the audience, "are people of faith who love our God" and that is important because "people of faith make better leaders."
"I do think it's worth saying," Fiorina declared, "that people of faith make better leaders because faith gives us humility, faith teaches us that no one of us is greater than any other one of us, that each of us are gifted by God. Faith gives us empathy; we know that all of us can fall and every one of us can be redeemed. And faith gives us optimism, it gives us the belief that there is something better, that there is someone bigger than all of us. And so I think it's important that we elect a leader of faith and that we elect a leader, as well, who knows that more prayer, not less, is necessary in public life and in all our lives."
Luntz then followed up on Fiorina's statement by declaring that "I can back that up statistically," asserting that "every single positive factor that you can describe is directly correlated to someone's relationship with faith, with God, and all the pathologies that you would criticize are directly related to a rejection of God."
