Good news is it sounds like you have somebody to vote for this election cycle!

I wonder if he also supports Russia's bombing of civilian centers and the killing of Ukrainian citizens?

Then he'll have your full throated support!

Dems have always loved Zelensky and his propaganda…at least you two will have that in common!

Lol. Ah yes, zelensky's trick photography. He really has the UN and Red Cross fooled.

It's all a big conspiracy and we just can't trust our eyes. I'm sure glad we have you here to tell us it ain't real.

Next thing you know you'll tell us all those Russian dissidents really are simply tripping and falling out of tall buildings, and planes are merely malfunctioning.

Wait…you already have!

I'm not really sure what to say to that. You've repeatedly cited UN figures for civilian casualties in Ukraine, which I don't dispute. I've only pointed out that they're remarkably low for a war of this scale and duration. When I cite UN sources on Gaza, you scoff with utter contempt and swear that you've never lent credence to anything that came from such a corrupt and politicized organization. Now, lo and behold, here you are once again like Moses descending from the mountain with UN statistics in hand. I can't tell what's authoritative today as opposed to yesterday or tomorrow. Maybe it's a Protestant thing...anyway, I'll agree to accept UN statistics if you will.

I'm not sure what to say in response to this. Now you believe the UN when it says human rights atrocities are occurring in Ukraine? How about the Red Cross? Believe them as well?

I guess it just depends on whose ox is being gored, eh Sam?

Assaulting and killing of white people is cool, as long as it's liberals and Russians doing it. Killing of brown people is always bad, of course, even when they are militants. U.S. and the west is the bad guy. Despots, dictators and militant islamists the good guys.

I do not know a ton about him, but what he says seems to resonate with me. I would prefer him over Paxton.

I appreciate the trying to be faithful to Jesus, but too often it becomes a servant of the (radical left) Culture.

---

It's a terrible dilemma, but I think we need to be very careful with someone who claims to be Christian and attempts to use those beliefs to justify progressive positions.

But I'll have more on that later.

---

1. He is not primarily trying to be faithful to Jesus. He's trying to be a successful politician.

2. This guy's mis-quoting and mis-reading of Scripture is pretty blatant and transparent, but a lot of conservative politicians do things along the same line. Beware of anyone who pretends to have Jesus's view of contemporary American politics.

---

please point out a misquoting of scripture. Thanks in advance

---

I will let you do your own research. Hint: you can just start on this thread and maybe use a little google to help with the Bible stuff.

---

I understand you dont agree with some of his interpretations of scripturre. That happens all time.
It's a big reason why there are so many denominations. I did not find any instance of him misquoting scripture. I figured since you made the claim you would be happy to document it.

---

Let's take the easiest one from early in this thread

He recently said this at a speaking engagement last week in Austin: "Instead of posting the Ten Commandments in every classroom, why don't they post money is the root of all evil in every boardroom? Why don't they post do not judge in every courtroom? Why don't they post turn the other cheek in the halls of the Pentagon? Or it's easier for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle than to get into the kingdom of heaven on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange?"
(Thanks Mothra)

Money is not the root of evil. Money is a very useful thing.

"The LOVE of money"….. is the quote he misused. That's the quick and easy one. You can research others with very little difficulty.

We'll all patiently wait for your findings I'm sure.

So, this guy is my representative in Congress, and he's getting a lot of play right now, mostly because he was on Joe Rogan a few weeks ago. He's a very eloquent speaker, and purports to be a devout Christian and a progressive at the same time. As of late, I have seen a lot of my Christian friends really talking him up. I have one in particular that called him a "true follower of Jesus" who puts into practice Christ's words.

He recently said this at a speaking engagement last week in Austin: "Instead of posting the Ten Commandments in every classroom, why don't they post money is the root of all evil in every boardroom?

Or it's easier for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle than to get into the kingdom of heaven on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange?"

I have my own thoughts, and some thoughts on this guys politics in general, but before I commented, was curious as to where others stood on this guy.

---

Where does he stand on the usual moral issues (abortion as birth control, LGBT, no prosecution for criminals, etc) that "progressive Christians" get wrong?

I'm guessing he is far from being an orthodox (little o) Christian on those issues, which means that he's just using Christian terminology to advance a socialism/communism where Caesar replaces Christ.

---

Big gay rights supporter, and saw a clip from Rogan where he was attempting to argue that abortion is biblical.

But there are a LOT of Christians being fooled by this guy right now. I see it on my Facebook feed. So called committed Christians really touting this guy.

It's not good.

---

For me, it's easy to see why. Paxton, on the other side, is the candidate many Christians are supporting.

There is no way you can support him. It requires you to twist and turn you long held beliefs.

Unfortunately, his primary opponent (no disrespect to Wesley Hunt, I just dont think he will do better than a far distance 3rd place in the primary) is a vile human, so if you want to reliability vote R this midterm, your choices all kind of suck.

So, this guy is my representative in Congress, and he's getting a lot of play right now, mostly because he was on Joe Rogan a few weeks ago. He's a very eloquent speaker, and purports to be a devout Christian and a progressive at the same time. As of late, I have seen a lot of my Christian friends really talking him up. I have one in particular that called him a "true follower of Jesus" who puts into practice Christ's words.

He recently said this at a speaking engagement last week in Austin: "Instead of posting the Ten Commandments in every classroom, why don't they post money is the root of all evil in every boardroom? Why don't they post do not judge in every courtroom? Why don't they post turn the other cheek in the halls of the Pentagon? Or it's easier for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle than to get into the kingdom of heaven on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange?"

I have my own thoughts, and some thoughts on this guys politics in general, but before I commented, was curious as to where others stood on this guy.

---

Where does he stand on the usual moral issues (abortion as birth control, LGBT, no prosecution for criminals, etc) that "progressive Christians" get wrong?

I'm guessing he is far from being an orthodox (little o) Christian on those issues, which means that he's just using Christian terminology to advance a socialism/communism where Caesar replaces Christ.

---

Big gay rights supporter, and saw a clip from Rogan where he was attempting to argue that abortion is biblical.

But there are a LOT of Christians being fooled by this guy right now. I see it on my Facebook feed. So called committed Christians really touting this guy.

It's not good.

For me, it's easy to see why. Paxton, on the other side, is the candidate many Christians are supporting.

There is no way you can support him. It requires you to twist and turn you long held beliefs.

Fake Christian sorta liberal vs fake Christian sorta conservative.

Cornyn

Cornyn is the guy who votes with Trump 99% of the time (but that isn't good enough)

WTF is the benefit of James Talarico saying: “Joe Biden failed us.” Stupid move. I’d been a big fan until that. A big misstep. Talarico is giving me John Fetterman vibes.

Y'all don't think Miss Country Day Private School, has a chance against James Talarico.

He's in hot water over his comments about Collin Allred.

Not sure if this is an accurate description of the Democrat party shifting...and potentially moving away from identity politics

I've had some time to think about the infighting inside the Texas Democratic Party and the increasingly shameless attempts by Crockett's campaign to tear down the opposition.

What's becoming clear to me is that this isn't just petty campaign drama; it's a symptom of a much larger coalition shift underway in the Democratic Party.

Crockett and Allred's attacks on James Talarico rely heavily on identity-politics framing, including accusations of racism and the suggestion that Talarico has crossed some unforgivable moral Rubicon.

Truthfully, this kind of attack (even if based on the same level of unsubstantiated rumors) would have been a death knell in the peak years of Woke 1.0.

And, sure, part of this is likely tactical.

Crockett is trailing Talarico in the polls and can't match his fundraising. But I think it also reflects anxiety from parts of the old Democratic coalition as they watch the ground shift beneath them.

The emerging Democratic coalition will be more ethnically and economically diverse, but less captive to identity politics.

It will include people of color and Hispanic voters alongside a growing bloc of suburban white voters. It will reclaim American iconography and openly embrace things long ceded to the right: Christianity, patriotism, the flag, the Constitution.

I think that causes stress for some people.

But what they're clinging to didn't survive 2024. It's dead for good. The Democratic Party is changing, and the old version isn't coming back.

Was Trump voting to send hundreds of billions of American tax payer dollars to corrupt oligarchs in Ukraine?

That is one of the things Trump has been good on... he cut them off for the most part.

Colin Alred is half black mulatto married to a white woman who is whining about "tearing down black men" over the most banal critique imaginable.

These mulattos are always the most insufferable and obsessed with racial grievances while trying to tone police white people.

I dont think you understand what hatred looks like.

You and Collin Alred share a lot of feminine qualities... you project feelings onto others and endlessly piss and moan when people have very mild opinions you dont like.
