Well past time. These are the same people freaked out over the morals of Bill Clinton but have absolutely no problem with the morals of Donald Trump. Just goes to show that for today's evangelical Christians moral values are relative to who is president at the time.
This anti-Christian game you are playing, are you keeping score? Do you have a tally of the number of Christians you have found who are merely human?
For perspective, shall we tally up the number of self-deified atheists, such as yourself, who continually bear false witness against the faithful?
Your meme is taken verbatim from a tweet to HuffPo by a tweeter named
Ryan Knight@proud socialist. Yet, you are the one who continually chides us for not thinking for ourselves. The tweet/meme is diabolical in its inference, it suspends logic, and ignores completely the context of the event where president Trump signed some Bibles.
Beginning on Easter Sunday and continuing through April 22 & 23, a wave of tornadoes struck the south - Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and others - 33 people were killed, destruction and property damage was wide spread, power outages effected 1.2 million homes and businesses. President Trump and 1st Lady Melania went down there to see what could be done for THE PEOPLE. They didn't bring any Bibles with them.
When they visited the Providence Baptist Church in Opelika, members of the congregation asked them to sign their Bibles, and hats. It wasn't president Trump's idea. He was told that doing so might lift the spirits of those who had lost so much, so he agreed.
Signing Signing Bibles is an old tradition, particularly in Southern churches.
Trump is not the only president who has signed Bibles. President George W. Bush, FDR and President Ronald Reagan all signed Bibles during their administrations. President Barack Obama—along with Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts—reportedly signed a Bible that was once owned by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. following a request made by Dr. King’s family.
FDR signed the family Bible his attorney general used to take the oath of office in 1939.
The notion that Christians define their moral values based on whoever "is president at the time" must come directly from the Devil himself. Satan has your number, Peter Pilate, obviously it is way past time for you to reevalutate your religion.
