Duplicitous Christians

[MartyF]

Pelosi endorses Joe Biden for president, amid development in sexual assault claim

There are so many Christians who are duplicitous on this point. I've seen so many who call themselves Christian go out of their way to drag Kavanaugh through the mud, yet completely ignore Biden's very real handsiness and sexual assault allegations.

I find the Biden sexual assault allegations plausible, but not provable, and it would not in and of itself be disqualifying in my decisions. The same goes with his handsiness. While not good and showing a bit of entitlement and overstepping bound, I will not disqualify based on this alone.

However, when implausible and almost impossible accusations were made about Kavanaugh, the duplicitous Christians went out of their way to bury him in mud and say that a highly implausible accusation was enough to disqualify someone.

I don't know how Christians can be so duplicitous in their judgements.

Well, some might say, "Well Trump has sexual assault allegations against him and he is caught on tape saying naughty things." But remember, I didn't say the unprovable sexual assault allegation was disqualifying against Biden - nor was his handsiness. So, I am not being duplicitous like those who called for the disqualification of Kavanaugh.

So, once again, I don't know how Christians can be so duplicitous in their judgements.

Perhaps because they are easily duped by “an independent press.” There is no such thing.

The press is free, but free to take sides; it has never been independent of politics. It is deceptive to suggest that being the press makes them honest presenters or honest judges. That’s not their job, it’s just the illusion they want people to believe.

From the article:

The Biden campaign referred Fox News to a statement earlier this month from Biden Deputy Campaign Manager Kate Bedingfield that said: “What is clear about this claim: it is untrue. This absolutely did not happen."

"Vice President Biden has dedicated his public life to changing the culture and the laws around violence against women," Bedingfield said. "He authored and fought for the passage and reauthorization of the landmark Violence Against Women Act. He firmly believes that women have a right to be heard -- and heard respectfully. Such claims should also be diligently reviewed by an independent press."​

And . . . . ?

There were unsubstantiated and doubtful claims about Kavanaugh. The Democrat congressmen. who sometimes like to call themselves Christian, ran hearings exploring these claims and despite the fact that they were unable to find any substantiation for the accusation, they said the accusation in and of itself was enough to disqualify him.

Pelosi, who says she is Christian, says Kavanaugh should have been disqualified simply for being accused, while she endorses Biden.

These actions are duplicitous and I get the feeling that you agree with Pelosi.

"Not all who say Lord, Lord --" or, IOW, claiming it don't make it true!!

No, not at all. Perhaps we watched it play out differently. In the case of Kavanaugh, what I saw was a media that wholeheartedly embraced the accusations of the accusers as conclusive proof that the accused was guilty. They paraded out whackos like Avenatti and Swetnick and reinforced the lies being perpetrated. The media did not seem the least bit equivocal, but rather sided with those politicians who passed judgment with no evidence.

Thus, those gullible enough to think the media politically independent could be easily deceived. I am referring to the average voter.

But it seems now you are talking only about Dem politicians that claim to be Christians. To that all I can say is their militant advancement of abortion makes whatever else they do unsurprising.

Perhaps there is a copy of the report that the victim filed before she was fired. If so, the copy would be with the Biden papers at the University of Delaware. However, Catch 22 is that Biden will not allow the papers to be searched and the University of Delaware will not allow the papers to be searched without Biden's approval. Meanwhile, the Larry King show call-in from the victim's mother must be very incriminating because Google removed it from the files of the Larry King Show. Now there are a couple of witnesses that report that they were told at the time.

Biden does seem to be in freefall right now. He should have to answer questions about this in public right now.
