The LAST thing we need is a religious theocracy. You want to believe in your specific flavor of Christianity? Fine. Don't tell me I have to believe in it.
Hes not calling for a theocracy, he's calling for Americans to turn back to God, which is our roots.
"If my people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will i hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land"
Our roots are FREEDOM. There is quite a bit of overlap between American values and Christian values, but this is an American nation, not a Christian theocracy.
Exactly. Many came here to escape religious persecution.
The Mormons even had to escape religious persecution on this continent by going way out west.
You will not find "Christ", "Christian", etc. anywhere in the Declaration of Independence, the Preamble to the Constitution, or the Constitution. You will not find any form of deity mentioned in the Constitution. The Constitution is this country's foundational document and "Christ" is nowhere to be found. You will find them in the other two documents though as "Creator" and "Nature's God". "Nature's God" is a very deistic expression. Look up "deism".
I'm an atheist, but can see what Trump is saying from his standpoint. I'm fine with it. Also, the last fucking thing we need here is Islamic zealots and Sharia law.
I think what Trump means is we just need decent family values again. The idea that devil worshipping pedophiles run America is crazy sounding but legit. That needs to be countered societywide. I just wish that info could be more openly discussed without people calling us crazy because a letter on a random anonymous board started posting this prophetic stuff years ago.
