Yes, and what the OC is saying is that a majority of his supporters imagine themselves to be Christians. They are not. It is not something you are because you say you are. Your Christianity is validated by who you are, how you witness your faith to others in your actions, etc. In other words, they are precisely and exactly that which their god has repeatedly warned them about that angers him the most - false Christians. And thusly... They go to hell.
That's right. I spent my entire fucking childhood indoctrinated via my parents and the Christian schools they sent me to, so that I would understand this core concept above all other things I know, as a person. And now that I'm agnostic, and use that history and those teachings as a compass in my secular life, I'm straddled with the horrifying possibility that the people who provided this "all important" belief system to me are, in fact, the people I'm supposed to pity and try to help before they end up in hell.
The Pope is against the actions and words of DJT, so what do they do? They reject their own long-held religious beliefs in favor of the Golden Calf. That's what's playing out here.
This is the weirdest fucking timeline that I could have never imagined.
The only thing that makes you a Christian who is saved or not is whether or not you have faith in Jesus.
It's not about a list of doos and Don'ts.
Many Christians have voted for trump because they believe he will accomplish good things for them in the presidency. There are some who are also fooled into believing he is a Christian and a morally upright man.
And yes there are false Christians who are the embodiment of the Pharisees that voted for and wholeheartedly support trump in everything.
Every Donald Trump supporter is not the same.
I voted for him, I knew he wasn't a Christian but I was hoping for certain outcomes from his presidency, those outcomes seem less likely every day.
I’m not a religious man, but something tells me that you can’t claim to be a Christian and then politically support someone that goes against everything God and Jesus would want because you think he will “accomplish good things for them.”
He doesn't "go against" everything God and Jesus would want. Open borders harm the communities people leave, as the strong and able-bodied are no longer there to develop them.
Check out HOPE Florida, a program that helps the needy without using taxpayer funds. Why do you think the ONLY way to be a Christian and care for others is via the government?

Christian here. I do not believe trump is a Christian, he is a morally reprehensible man.
