Christian deep-thinker: The end justifies the means

A piece at the Christian Post argues, basically, that Christians should vote for Trump because the end justifies the means.

I’ll admit that in 2016 I abhorred the man’s behavior and I certainly wasn’t confident that Donald Trump would be the conservative policy-pusher that the Christian-right wanted.

But I have no reservations now, and, my brothers and sisters in Christ, neither should you.

Read that again, let your mind steep in it, try to comprehend the squalor of a mind capable of writing such words.

Like Albert the Pious His Very Self, the author of this piece was skeptical of Trump in 2016. But now, after …

  • The child-separations and imprisonments, and …

  • The mismanagement of America’s response to the pandemic, and tens of thousands of avoidable deaths, and …

  • Thousands of documented lies, and …

  • Damaging the NATO Alliance, and …

  • Mobilization of secret police, and …

  • On and on …

… why, The Donald seems Downright Dandy! Verily, the end does justify the means!

By the way, I’m still waiting for some believer to step forward and show me where Christians are authorized in the Inerrant Bible to make deals with the Devil.

Better than anything I’ve read in a long while, this editorial captures perfectly the moral and intellectual squalor of the Evangelical Right. Trump must be put out of office in November, and this squalid pack of self-serving pious frauds need to be shoved to the margins of our public life.
