Pray Prince George is gay says leading clergyman as it would force the church to be more inclusive

• Rev Kelvin Holdsworth offered his suggestion in a blog about the royal wedding
• He listed ideas for campaigners to change Church’s opposition to gay marriage
• Said we should pray for George to grow up with a love for fine, young gentlemen
• Comments about the four-year-old were met with outrage by fellow Christians

And may the flees of a thousand camels infest your armpits, every time you open your frigging mouth... that's what I'll be praying for.

Not everything needs to be spun, he admitted he lied. Trump just admitted on Twitter he lied:

I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide!
Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump 3h3 hours ago

He lied. And then Trump knew he lied and didn't tell the FBI, tried to silence/shield Flynn? They're talking obstruction.

So they why all the hype if the FBI concluded Flynn didn't deliberately lie? B/C Muller in on a hunt and has ruined Flynn financially.

Flynn disgraced his service taking money from TK without registering as a foreign agent and was fired.

Nothing the Trump team did regarding foreign policy was illegal before or after the election. Trump was President Elect,

Weak sauce.

Yes, for those getting the tax cuts, rich. The rest of will probably be paying more.

Considering over 1/3rd of Americans pay no federal income taxe and historic boondoggles like the loose interpretation of child tax credit allowing non-citizens to claim nieces and nephews in other countries as dependents, that's not likely.

Not true - 33% approval - http://news.gallup.com/poll/201617/gallup-daily-trump-job-approval.aspx

Good thing polls don't vote or Hillary would be president.

Tied for the lowest he's had and with the recent news, should get worse. You don't have historically low numbers if is support was still there.

And he promised social security, medicare won't be touched but they didn't pass the amendment protecting it, you have Rubio saying:

"Florida Senator Marco Rubio admits that the Republican tax cut plan to aid corporations and the wealthy will require cuts to Social Security and Medicare to pay for it."

That won't go over well.

I love it when corrupt politicians quote the Bible. Like my Dad used to say, when you point a finger at someone else, there are three more pointing back at you.

• comey‪Beautiful Long Island Sound from Westport, CT. To paraphrase the Buddha — Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun; the moon; and the truth. ‬

Who better to know what's going on. He knows more truth is coming, not good for Trump and Co.

Oh yes he is.

What's worse, politicians trying to act holy or priest acting like politicians.

No, Mueller isn't going anywhere. Comey isn't a politician. Those polls reflect how people feel about Trump.

Are you talking about Ted Cruz?

"Ted Cruz lifts the Bible high into the air and then lies like a dog-over and over again! The Evangelicals in S.C. figured him out & said no!"

Comey is a politician. If he wasn't Hillary would have been charged for violating national security, mishandling secure information and destruction of Gov property.

I was talking about Comey. That's who you quoted, remember?

 

[JB Lions]

Yes, but he's not a politician, he just knows more about Trump, than most.

And after Trump, Cruz has to be the slimiest. Him and Rubio, tweeting out bible verses from time to time, still trying to court that Christian Right vote.

I did think that's one good thing that came from the Trump nomination, it shows you don't have to bend over for the Christian Right anymore. All those possibilities and the Republicans chose the least Christian. Now it's just the NRA and big corp that's banging them out. Drain the Swamp, then the Swamp just got the GOP to pass their bill.

For your post below, he was FBI director, appointed, not elected like a politician.

The Very Political James Comey
The FBI director says he doesn’t "give a hoot” about politics. But when it comes to Clinton and her emails, he’s made a series of political decisions that have jeopardized the integrity of the FBI—and the U.S. election process.

Seriously, does anyone care about Trump and his Twitter?

Articles like this about Trump and Twitter are not newsworthy. Seriously, stop making news about Trump and Twitter!!!!

We are teaching our kids that it's okay to call people names on social media. All the crap that's going on in the world unnamed calling between the United States and North KoreaIs ridiculous. World going to be living in a cave over some silly stuff. Nukes and shooting them off. C'mon man!

End of rant.

If Trump didn't use twitter, how would his message come across? The dominant biased Liberal media would certainly not tell the world all that he had said or done... only the negative stuff. They would pick what suited their agenda and we all know they would only pick what they would perceive as negative stuff, so that they can spend days or weeks on end debating all the crap they feel is important news. Most of the Political debates they have is about "Nothing" Burgers.

Obama NEVER needed Twitter because the Liberal Media were constantly kissing his ass and some even admitted having political orgasms when thinking about him. So YES, I'm very happy Trump is using Twitter. That's the only way everyone knows word for word EXACTLY exactly he says... NOT what the lying, biased Liberal PS Media decides what I need to know.

Give them hell Trump and build that wall, nice and tall... and call it the "Katie Steinle Wall"

 

[JB Lions]

The Dems, left, liberals etc. love that he is using Twitter as well. To see somebody sink themselves, putting his idiocy on full display, day after day. Great to activate the left.

Somebody said he was smart, no, he's pretty dumb. He doesn't realize he can let his followers handle the lightweight work. He posts like one of his followers, posting lies, unverified memes etc. He should stick to the issues, at least appear Presidential, when he'll never be.

So you only like quotes from the Bible that align with your politics of the moment.

I don't like any bible quotes. Your focus is on where the quote came from, my focus was that there is more on Trump coming and Comey is somebody that would know.

Then, Buddha is not from the Bible.

Comey is going to enjoy this and rightfully so. Trump fired him to try to obstruct the investigation, it backfired on him. Again, one of his many dumb moves. How is that working out now? Now, they got Flynn and his son in law. Trump always like to point out he's in charge, he runs things.

 

[E-Promote]

Look into Trumps past, something you should have done before voting for him.

Now look into his present.

He has a habit of drawing in opportunistic sycophants, humiliating them, then firing them.

That is exactly what he is doing to you, his supporters.

 

[Kate]

Ah. He think he is still running the Apprentice show, it's just that the setting has changed to DC... but he's the one who should be fired now.

 

[E-Promote]

So you only like quotes from the Bible that align with your politics of the moment.

Ah yes, you mean like:

(Matthew 11:28) Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Republicon: Unless you are not in the 1% or at least a major donor that is.

(John 14:27) Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Republicon: But screw you if you expect me to hep you with a basic human need like healthcare, we have too many wars to wage for profit, too many non "Christians" to kill and too many natural resources to steal. Do I mind that 22 Veterans a day kill themselves once they return home from the BS war we sent them to for corporate profits, of course not, they were suckers to sign up in the first place.

(Mark 10:25) It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
Republicon: Oh c'mon now we all know he wasn't serious with that one, it's all about how many useless toys you have when you die, no matter how you got them or who you screwed over in the process.

Care for more? Sure hope not, ignorance is fing boring.

Most everybody in charge at the top of any large organization public or private is a politician. Period. How did they get the job in the first place if they weren't popular or brown-nosers? A rare few slip up the corporate ladder simply promoted up and out because nobody can stand their incompetence in their lower departments- and the real workers help get rid of them. Not every Chairman, Dept Manager or CEO is some shining star judged by competence and job performance.

Most people who go to work in the Gov't, any Gov't worldwide is solely for job security, they cannot handle being self employed or working for small companies. They elect to find a place to hide amongst many. In small companies, they cannot hide their lack of education, probably need supervision and are not self motivated and nor ever knew hard work, or the versatility to do many jobs.

I'm not upset, it seems you are tho. One quote was from the Bible, one from Buddha. It could have been a quote saying "Be Good" from E.T. That wasn't the point, maybe it went over you head. What exactly did you read from me that gave you the idea I was upset about something?

I said this - James Comey first instagram posts

and quoted his 2 posts. I think you cared more that one was from the Bible.

Maybe, you're struggling with the whole point of that? That Comey is enjoying this and Trump is screwed.

For all the atheist and hollywood liberals, marxist, communist, progressives quoting the Bible to show how terrible the GOP is:

Feel free to pay an additional 5% in taxes, spend one weekend a month volunteering at the local food bank or donating an additional 10% of your income to good works.

That'll show the republicans!

From the video I posted earlier.
Minister who sang for Roy Moore lied for son accused of molesting Honduran orphans
http://www.al.com/news/mobile/index.ssf/2017/11/minister_convicted_of_obstruct.html

Why are there so many molestation issues with the church?

It is a great business, Joel Osteen would agree. I think there are better uses for your money, than enriching some preacher.
