I can think of no more apt place for a harsh, vituperative Trump rant than a prayer breakfast. I recall the nuns back in Catholic school teaching that vengeance is the heart of Christian ethics. I’ve said before and continue to believe that evangelicals are the Trump coalition /1
member most tarred by association with this Faust. No one will ever believe Christian conservative claims to a higher morality again. And this alliance makes white evangelicals look far more nationalist and racist than pious. Trump is an anti-Christian, a pseudo-Nietzschean /2
who elevates his greed, lust, and caprice above all else, certainly above any deity or ethics. He doesn’t certainly read the Bible or go to church. Ironically Obama did engage Christian ethics through his interest in Niebuhr, but he was a Kenyan Muslim socialist, right? Ech. END
ADDENDUM: The line about nuns of my old Catholic school teaching vengeance was sarcasm. I thought that would be obvious.
