I think, somehow, the Lord’s plan is being put in place for America and these people are not only revolting against Trump, they’re revolting against what God’s plan is for America. [Pat Robertson on a broadcast of the 700 Club.]
People wonder why churches must not endorse political candidates or lose their tax-free status? It’s because of the apocalyptic pronouncements from prominent clerics. This is little less than a call to arms for Trump, backed by the word of God. For those who are enveloped in such a belief system, it may seem wonderful; for the rest of us, atheists or not, it’s a threat, a chance to be burned at the stake. And that’s not hyperbole; just read English history, starting with King Henry. Which sect is right, which is wrong?
You can’t tell.
And that’s why the Founding Fathers, in their wisdom, refused to favor any religion. And the Johnson Amendment helps guarantee that wisdom.
