I think Americans need to realise that Trump won by popular vote- anything to prevent this legally would be undemocratic. You’ll need to change social attitudes or maybe put up a better candidate/run a better campaign in opposition.

I don’t think it’s democratic to ban people with a criminal record from voting or running. If the people want to vote someone like that in, then who’s to stop them

Say what you want about trump, but I think felons should be able to vote no matter what. I even think people should be able to vote from prison.

Ah yes, the classic child-abuser-apologist line that every “christian” brings out when confronted about the abuse of their revered leaders that they absolutely refuse to condemn before they go back to church to give money directly to the abusers every week.

My church doesn’t have child abusers that I’m aware of. If they did, I’d leave. I left a different church, partially because they paid licencing fees to Hillsong, which had several scandals.

“people” go to hell and are tortured forever unless they love Jesus and folow sky-daddy’s rules (and by extension, the rules of the church).

God issues justice, and all are sinful. Only Jesus can save you. Not a Church or following rules. Church is where I receive the sacraments, meet with other believers, worship, and help build God’s kingdom.

But I guess when you lie, you can just ask Daddy for forgiveness and you get off with no consequences! Tons of harm, no foul.

That’s contradictory. You were upset with God’s justice, now you’re upset with His mercy.

If you want to suffer the consequences of your actions, you are welcome to do so. But don’t act like He didn’t take it on for you.
