Has Trump given religion a bad name ?

Harriet03 · 41-45, F
If the Evangelicals really believed in their book, he'd have been stoned to death years ago!!!
F****** hypocrites

@Harriet03 stop agreeing with me.. people will start talking

@MarineBob ikr? But you're such a attractive man. (I use the term loosely)! 💋

Religion gave itself a bad name through thousands of years of violence and other nonsense.

Trump only further degrades religion's name by being associated with it

he's just shown the religionistas for the power-hungry nihilists they have always been

religion already had a bad name lmao

Religion gave religion a bad name, way before trump came around.
Apparently some people like it that way.America sees nothing but business., in God™ we Trust.
At least you don't get headaches trying to sort out the good from the bad, it's all about putting the blame on your neighbours, justifying greed and using big words to conceal real facts, god is just another of these big words.

If you mean extreme Evangelism, I'm afraid it did not need any help. There is no reasoning with those who believe you need to run the US foreign policy on a single track: Armageddon.

Trump uses religion, like everything else he does, to his advantage, and when he's done, he discards it.

Trump isn't saying anything Evangelicals haven't already been saying for decades. His words and actions are inconsequential to the perception of religion in the US. Christians need no help tainting their religion with hypocrisy.

Lol, well he gives everything he talks about a bad name, he manages to mar these things in some way

You are overplaying Trumps power. He is merely an extreme example of a large number of sins, high crimes and misdemeanours perpetrated by others. It would be nice if his almost parody like actions could hold up a Mirror to America and let them see themselves as the world sees them.

No. Trump is proof that religious people are deeply flawed and conflicted.
At times that is. 🙂

Everything Baby-trump touches dies.

Religion doesn't have a bad name, but Trump sure has. He knows nothing about religion except to praise the Lord when he thinks it might help him in some nasty deed he's planning. He'll answer to God someday and it won't be pretty.

@JeanAnna Religion does have a bad name. They continually attempt to force their beliefs on everyone. They continually try to have laws created to uphold their religious beliefs. We are not allowed to take away their right to practice their faith but they are somehow allowed to force us to abide by their moral code?

Let me also remind you of religious terrorism around the world. Killing in the name of whatever God they believe in.

Yea. Definitely a bad name.
lol.. this is just a poor excuse just to put the word *trump* and *bad* in a sentence together.

I think it's the other way around. 😆😆😆

Religion misses the whole point of God and spirituality. It was always very flawed, but today’s conservatives have done more than anybody else to expose the flaws.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
No worse than Sharpton, olsteen, Jackson, and all the god damn others
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@MarineBob Sharpton is not religious neither is Jackson.
I find it funny that racist people always bring up their names.
Especially when these men are very respected in the world.
Its true. And you know its true. 🙂

@MarineBob Thou shall not take the Lord's name in vain.
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
He doesn’t seem all that connected to religion really.

It’s Pence who makes the religious seem crazy.
Budwick · 70-79, M
Neither Trump or religion have bad names.
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@Budwick looooooooooooool ...... thanks for the laffs bud.

No. Religious zealots have given religion a "bad name".
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@JaggedLittlePill You mean people like Mike Pence ?
JaggedLittlePill · 46-50, F
@RodionRomanovitch He is one.

You do know that crazy religious folk have been working with the conservative republicans for years and years ....right? This is nothing new with Trump. Trump just exploits these things for his advantage.
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@JaggedLittlePill It makes you wonder who's exploiting who.
