Milo Yiannopoulos and the Church of Winning

[TCassidy]

Franklyn Graham put it best:

Abraham — great man of faith. But he lied.

Moses led his people out of bondage, but he disobeyed God.

David committed adultery and then he committed murder.

The Apostles turned their back on the Lord Jesus Christ in his greatest hour of need, they turned their backs and they ran.

Peter denied him three times.

All of this to say, there is none of us is perfect. We’re all guilty of sin.

But God forgives sin.

Both Jeffress and Falwell Jr. have stated they believe he's repented and is a believer. I would defer to them, as they know him on a spiritual level much better than I do. I will say though, that moving from pro-choice to pro-life is a huge indicator. I didn't do that until I got saved myself.

So did James Dobson.

I would tend to think endorsements like these at a time when it it politically beneficial are a bit suspicious.

Is it really that beneficial? Seems to me, in this current climate, that endorsing anyone has a higher likelihood of costing you supporters/sales.

I would say that statements made by people who may be considered prominent Christians claiming that someone who is popular with Christians is "one of us" may benefit from the increased exposure that their endorsements may bring.

Who are some pro life candidates that you would support?

I would have preferred Evan McMullin.

Did you vote for him? McMullin was a spoiler candidate. His sole purpose was to keep Trump out. Have you supported any mainstream pro life candidates?

What are you, a pollster now?

Spoiler? Nope. Conscience-friendly alternative.

 

[Calminian]

Spoiler? Nope. Conscience-friendly alternative.

And yet you didn't vote for him.

I'm just wondering if you are even pro life. You complain about Trump, but have never supported a pro life candidate?

Didn't vote for who? I have made it a point to never state who I vote for. You are drawing false conclusions based on who-knows-what.

Why are you so against sharing who you vote for?

 

[Rolfe]

Why are you so against sharing who you vote for?

Because I value the secrecy of my ballot as a principle.

Why do you think that it is any of your business?

But why so defensive and secretive? You're on a public political board. Is it so off the wall to be asked about this stuff? Are you ashamed to share what you believe?

Not ashamed at all. It is principle of mine. Final answer. Any further inquiries will be considered nagging and will be answered with memes and gifs.

And now for this musical interlude...

Wow. Why so defensive? You have to lash out with memes merely because someone asks what you believe? [Edited] [Edited]

 

[Calminian]

...So we support someone and you attack us none stop and you keep you little dirty secret. ...

LOL! I'm a bit new here, but I've never seen him actually engage in any particular point or point of view. Have you?

 

[InTheLight]

Yet, you are non-stop bashing Trump. So we support someone and you attack us none stop and you keep you little dirty secret. [Quoting personal attack]

Nobody's attacking you, personally. We are pointing out Trump's hypocrisy, errors, and changing positions.

However you and Calumny personally attack just about anyone that criticizes Trump. Just here you've called Rolfe a liberal and Calumnian questioned his Christianity.

[Edited: quoting deleted post]

Before you draw false conclusions that make you look foolish, do a little research. Start with a person's profile page.

As for my political leanings, I can tell you people all day that I am somewhere between a Constitutionally-minded Conservative and a Libertarian, but it will make no difference to you. I am not a flaming Trumpite, so I am the enemy.

If both you and Chris the saved are too lazy or dense to figure out who I would have voted for (hint: reread this thread), then I cannot help you further.

Thanks. I thought that questioning someone's salvation was against forum rules.

My thought is to just let them keep posting and issuing Red Xs, and let them reveal their true selfs ("selfs" does not seem right.). Eventually they will dig a deep hole and be relegated to the list of the banned. Have seen it happen again and again.
