“We will stand with the right of every American, of every faith, to live, to work, to speak and to worship according to the dictates of their conscience,” Pence said.
Does anybody else see the hypocrisy in this statement when he wants to tell women if they can have an abortion, determine which couples are allowed to marry, etc.?
No hypocrisy there, Kelvin O.
Our Creator told us explicitly that we were created as two different sexes, and only two…and how we were to function, complementing one-another by leaving our fathers and mothers and cleaving to one another as man (male) and wife (female) in the marriage covenant designed for our benefit and human procreation.
He also told us we are not to murder one-another…and science has proven that the DNA of a baby within a woman is different from that of the woman herself. Hence, a distinctly-different individual person was formed at the moment of conception. That little person deserves the same protection from harm as does you or me.
‘Sorry those basic facts may be beyond your comprehension, but they have been the bedrock of every thriving culture since the dawn of time…and ignoring them has been the downfall of those cultures, just as that downfall is currently underway in The United States of America, in case you can’t see the big picture.
Over 100 years ago, it was said that the sun never sets on the British Empire. That was because that empire was so large that Great Britain was a powerhouse in the world. Now, Great Britain’s enormous churches are at best tourist sites, all but void of worshipers and unable to perform even basic maintenance if they had to depend on parishioner’s contributions alone…and the sun easily rises and sets on the British Empire because it is basically non-existent.
A diminishing few people in The United States of America recognize all this going on, so you should refrain from shooting the messenger [Mike Pence] just because you don’t like the message. Shooting the messenger does not reduce the reality of the message.
Bob P cherry-picking the Bible as conservatives are want to do. The same book that mentions homosexuality in a single passage also endorses slavery. Jesus laid down a new covenant, one of love and compassion, so it is inexplicable how so-called Christians use the OLD testament to justify discrimination, ignoring Jesus’ dictate to love one another (and if you were really the biblical scholar that you think you are you would know that “love” in the ancient language of the Bible is a verb, so it means to take action to be neighborly and kind to others).
Bob, churches will be empty in less than 100 years and Mike Pence will be one of the biggest reasons why.
We are taught as Christians that the earth is not our home. Yet so many have turned away from worshiping Jesus and instead believe in QAnonsense or Trump instead.
The youth know this, see this, and they want no part of it.
To Bob P,
No one is shooting the messenger. Merely pointing out a hypocrisy because of juxtaposed statements that contradict each other does not matter what ones opinion of the messenger is.
Americans are a polyglot of many religions, beliefs, ethnicities, etc. so to ‘stand with the right of every American, of every faith, . . .’ means not dictating Christian values on those with other beliefs or even other interpretations of Christian doctrine.
Using Great Britain as an example of the downfall caused by not following Christian values as you provide is revisionist history. The downfall of Great Britain occurred because they tried to force their culture on other religions and ethnicities, redrew boundaries according to their needs and not according to local peoples, etc.; thus this led to revolt against the British rule by all. Closer to home, why did many of the the initial settlers of America leave the UK and Europe? Until the second half of the 20th century, European countries (including GB) were largely monotheistic and of one race/culture. The US does not profess to be the same; read the Bill of Rights. Freedom of religion is freedom to worship any religion not the freedom to worship a Christian religion. Yes, the Bill of Rights was written when the the demographics of the US were much different and much more monolithic than now but that does not diminish the broad meaning of the Bill of Rights.
Dude will never be POTUS. Give it a rest.
Yep. He’s done. His best bet is to go become president of Hillsdale or Liberty … that’s the only presidency he will ever get.
I figured he would be like Dan Quayle and move into the private sector because he went as high as he could and POTUS isn’t in the cards. Why would you want to put yourself in the position of having to either support or disavow your Trump relationship because we all know Trump is not going to gracefully ride off into the sunset. Trump will be back either as a candidate or a major disrupter and Pence is stuck in a no win situation. I just figured he was through politically, but I do admire people reaching for their dreams regardless of what others say. Nothing wrong with that.
Trust anonymous Associated Press writers to put “biblical values” in quotation marks, implying they aren’t, or are to be discounted. (Friggin’ liberals, what a PITA. As transparent as cellophane.)
This coward doesn’t have a prayer. The conservatives will rally behind a courageous American, not this RINO.
I prefer to refer to them as CHINO -Christian In Name Only.
The people you are referring to are not conservatives and I’m sure you are not either. You’re referring to the alt-right, which just lost all of its power in government a few months ago.
