I am a Christian man and I support Donald Trump. I wish he would not have said those things about women but why should we expect anything different? He is a wealthy and famous star that does not fear God nor man, wouldn't we expect him to act and say things that are unholy or immoral.

 

Look at King David in the Bible. He was the King of the Kingdom of God. He had so many wives and concubines at his disposal but he wanted a woman that he was forbidden to have. Bathsheba was married to someone else, therefore she was out-of-bounds even for the king. Nonetheless David wanted her and even arranged the death of her husband. Was David unfit to be King of Israel?

Dr James Dobson said Trump has accepted Jesus Christ as his savior.

Whoa. I wasn't expecting that from you. Thanks. Unless you are being sarcastic, then I will hit you with a big fat dislike.

He did more than say things about women. He described the act of moving on a married woman like a ..xxxx. Trying to ____ her. So that's an act. He also used words...to describe acts that he had done. Are you saying you wish he had not used words but you don't care about the actual acts he described? Or are you saying you believe when he used words to describe acts he had done that he really hadn't done the acts.

 

And what about the women who say..."yes, he sexually assaulted me." Do you, as a Christian man, simply not care about women who are victims of sexual assault? It's a fair question, especially since the bible story you lean on to justify this position of yours is a story of rape. David raped Bathsheba. So yeah, if that is your cornerstone story (lol) why would you not support a serial sexual assaulter.

 

And why even look at some story in the bible? He says he goes around and grabs women in the ______. Is it that hard to see that as immoral and wrong? Do you have to consult a book for guidance? And if you do, why in god's name (haha) would you pick a rape story for guidance.

 

Here's the easy answer. It's wrong to sexually assault women. It's wrong to hit on married women, and it's wrong to talk about them in such derogatory terms.

 

I really worry about your congregation. You need a guest atheist to come help them.

So the Bible can be used to justify sexual assault??

I'm not religious at all, so take this with a grain of salt, but you can't be considered a "good christian" and be "not that bothered" by Trump's comments.

The Bible has been used to justify marital abuse & rape forever. In fact, many believe that the Bible commands that women be treated as such as they are property of men.

These last 8 years of Obama's presidency and this most recent election cycle have certainly pulled back the curtains on the ugliest beliefs of Americans.

Well here we go..........

You certainly have the right to think as you do and support whom you wish, however, to even remotely think Trump's actions and words are acceptable is not the Christianity I know. It plays right into the evangelical hypocrisy that is killing the Republican Party.

 

I will not judge you because I don't do that, but I would not attend your church because that is not the message I could support. EVER! Sexual abuse, degrading women and disabled persons is beyond acceptable to me.

Thank goodness most of us have moved on from the Old Testament as a model for living our lives.

@Bengal Maniac Hmmmmmmm I believe I said that the words and comments were unholy and immoral.

I'd like to ask just one question, and you don't need to answer in this thread........Have you EVER, at one time in your lives, looked at an attractive woman and commented, man I'd like to..........? Are not you then as guilty as the Donald in degrading women?

So the Bible can be used to justify sexual assault??

 

Hmmmmmmmm.............. I just reread my post and I didn't say that anywhere. In fact I believe I said that trump does not fear God nor man. So since he does not fear God why would we expect him to have a clean mouth.
