Democracy is an ongoing process in cooperation with fellow citizens. The issue here is with one of us putting himself forward at the age of 77/78 with arguably, his mental faculties faltering.

A functional democracy that is working properly demands we make judgement on this. To answer that question, yes I am mentally fit to make that decision as I trust are the vast majority of other voters given the evidence that needs to be examined.
 
I think Trump has lowered the mental fitness bar to the point that “Is ‘X’ mentally fit to be president?” is no longer a meaningful consideration.

There is nothing wrong with the President’s mental
fitness.

I guess you haven’t seen the long list of Biden gaffes.
 
I think some people are unhappy because for the first time in a long time someone like Trump gives as good as he gets.

As spoken about from an Australian clip last week.


More generally the idea that Christians shouldn’t act in a certain way is more about controlling that population to make them submit. The vast majority of Christians see this attempted submission for the cowardice it is and will rigidly stick to someone like Trump who mentally runs rings around these supposed elites as they are finally losing their influence, thank God.

They are your words projecting your views onto others.

That is a disgusting comment.

Perhaps you are again projecting your views onto someone else.

That was not his quote. I see you don’t mind lying either.

So you openly lie and project your views on someone else and want to lecture Christians how they should think and act according to what you want.

We are not cowards wanting to submit to such ridiculousness.

This thread is about Joe Biden’s mental fitness for presidency, not your lecturing to Christians why we should reject Donald Trump based on your own mental projections.

The 2005 interview with Billy Bush went more like;
“I grab them by the p****. You can do anything”.

That’s verbatim.

Again a misquote and off topic.

Christians do not support Donald Trump because of his past bravado comments and no doubt sinful actions.

If there was a choice between a Donald Trump who did not do this in the past and Donald Trump who did, then no doubt Christians would choose the former, but that is not the choice.

Just like if there was a choice between a saint Paul who did not in the past kill Christians and one who did we’d also take the former. You choose from the choices you have.

To reduce saint Paul to someone who kills Christians and therefore you must reject him completely oblivious to the real world situation of the present is just plane narrow minded and trying to coral the people you are speaking to in an artificial morality pen in order to make them submit to your view.

This is what you are trying to do with Christians and Trump.

Do you think Christians are so dumb and cowardly to submit to your artificially created morality projection?

No we are not, now back to the topic of the thread.

The quote is verbatim.

Women, for the most part, are just sex-objects to this guy. He made this quote about the same time he married his current wife (number 3? 4?) And then the next year he slept with Stormi Daniels. And this is just the stuff we know about.

And on faith, I remember him saying “I go and have my little cracker and my little wine…”

It just blows me away to see Christians, particularly Catholic Christians, rally to this guy.
 
So should Christians have rejected saint Paul by those standards?

Should they have rejected Saint Augustine as well?

But to the topic, if gaffes make Biden unfit, then Bush 2 was unfit.

As for the current guy, what other world leader airs personal vendettas AND national policy on Twitter?

This isn’t how adults act. The guy has some clear issues, despite claiming to be a “stable genius”.
 
Many seem to forget the actions of JFK and William
Jefferson Clinton who were serial adulterers. It is
always the double standard for the democrats.
 
Dems aren’t trying to associate themselves with evangelical Christianity, so no. No double standard.

It’s fair to say that the official religion of the democratic party is “none”.

Don’t want to be held to a “higher standard”? Then drop the standard.

It is very true.

I guess you have heard about Saul (ironically) Alinky’s Rules for Radicals where he speaks about trying to make your opponents live up to their standards and then tying to bring them down and disgrace them when they don’t and trying to continually cast aspersions on their character.

I guess we have had decades now of these tactics and I think Christianity has suffered tremendously by not standing up to the intended maliciousness right from the beginning.

Too many Christians have let others define the moral considerations of Christianity itself by people whose only aim has been the destruction of Christianity and now, Conservative politics.

Anyway, what do you think of candidate Biden?

Let us not be defeated by Mr Alinsky’s attempts to change and control the discussion.

I assume you are not Christian. Please don’t tell us what our standards are and how we should apply them according to what you would like.

Mr Alinsky’s rules no longer hold currency, thank God.
 
G’night, guys 😀

As an atheist, if I don’t see a difference between how your people act vs. the rest of us, then there is no difference, as far as I’m concerned.

Good luck with your continued support of Trump. When even atheists like myself perceive him as amoral, you Christians have your work cut out for you.
 
I think candidate Biden is past his prime. It is very sad to watch, but the dems have their hopes pinned on him.
I don’t care for Joe Biden ever since he was so cruel
to Clarence Thomas during the Supreme Court nomination hearing. I remember thinking what a mean and egotistical person he was. I waa not even political at the time. But he made such an impression on me on what a bully he was and I thought evil.

This is the false emotional play that if we just acted a little bit more like how you wanted, you would see a difference and then presumably we would find common cause. We don’t seek your validation and are not so weak that we need it. You have to have a pretty low view of Christians to attempt this type of emotionally driven discussion. It is truly insulting.

It is easy to spot people who clandestinely believe Christians are so stupid they will meekly follow artificial moral systems and so can be easily controlled because of a desire to please and be agreeable. Of course this is what you think of Christians but my experience is that it is atheists themselves that are slowly trapped into their own artificially created moral system which slowly becomes less and less coherent and useful.

There are a number of atheists hanging around this site believing Christians are simple minded folk in need of secular enlightenment. Under the cover of building a better shared future through ‘respectful’ discussion they try to submit Christians to their ‘enlightened’ values so as to dismantle Christian standards and wisdom.

No.

If you are correct then maybe as he ages we will see more of this side of his character on display. I honestly hope not because he has family and friends as well. I guess to survive in politics and be so successful over decades that kind of character has its advantages.

That is why I liked Ben Carson when he ran because he had the absence of that bullying character. I guess though it wasn’t the right time for someone as gentle as Ben.

Hopefully we will get to the stage where people with Ben’s temperament are seriously considered, all other things being equal.

P.S. Perhaps justice Thomas and Justice Kavanaugh can compare notes. lol
