    Re: Not even sure where this giant can of worms goes.

    Trump is a rude asshole. Both he and the Pope are bigots. However, I'd rather be stuck in an elevator with His Holiness than Trump. I know I'd punch Trump in the face.

      If a person wants to be part of the bickering bunch, by all means.

      Personally, getting into a piss-off about who's a worse Christian than who seems like a giant waste of a pagan's time. Also, a waste of Catholic time, and of every other denomination's time. As an American, I have to hear this crap in too many places already these days.

      But whatever! Be the you you want to be, you!

        It's hardly bickering. Pretty sure most people here are in agreement that Trump demonstrates not a jot of Christianity. Pagan or not, like it or not, the identity of religion is important to a lot of voters, particularly in the Republican party, under whose banner Trump is standing.

        I certainly don't think anyone is getting into a "piss-off" about who's a worse Christian.

        If you feel it's a giant waste of time, why bother commenting on this thread, as surely you are wasting your time as much as any of us are? The crux of the thread is about Trump and the Pope (both influential figures, even if not amongst us) and their respective Christianness.

          If you want to be taken seriously by others when you speak about someone's flaws you should be sure your own life is free of those flaws.
          As far as Trump goes, I just think he is a clown. He can't possibly really want the presidency and he seems to be far too self contradictory to say he actually believes anything that comes out of his mouth. This whole thing reminds me of the name calling that happened in the school yard in grade school.

              I absolutely believe he wants it. He seems to be the type that loves to be in the spotlight, which the president always is.

                I really do not understand why ANYONE would want that gig..I mean it will age you before your time,people want to kill you,some want to berate your actions no matter if the outcome is good or bad...and you have to make the hardest decisions on the whole planet(and it is all down to you to make those calls)(can we say nuclear football)

                  Re: Not even sure where this giant can of worms goes.

                  There are very few actions that a president can take without the support of congress. The president has little real power alone but he can set the goals (or lack thereof) for the nation to embrace or not. Yes he has access to the nuclear launch codes but it takes more than his suitcase to launch them.

                    I feel it's a rather legit commentary (not necessarily a criticism, in and of itself) on Trump; when I was in (Lutheran) catechism, the most important values being taught were compassion and understanding. And I think that any christian would cringe at the disregard and downright travesty that Trump and other bigots make of them.
                    "The idea is to be whispering, and not to gain the attention from the flock, but to get attention from the individuals. That's why I relate it to whispering. It's not something you can put on a big scale; you can't get sheep to attend to it. You need to have people who can stand for themselves. It is important to have a lot of space for yourself to be able to grow strong branches, which can stand in the most extreme surroundings."

                      Didn't say people can't do it, just said I'm laughing at people who do.

                        Who are you to tell me how to waste my time? I'll waste my time on my own terms, thank you very much!

                              Untill the pope gets rid of the Willfully ignorant of child abuse around him Cardinal Pell I won't be looking at any news concerning him - Tell me when the apocalypse happens that is probably what it will take!

                                As a non-Catholic, nothing the pope says makes a difference to me. As a non-moron, nothing TRUMP says makes a difference to me.
