They weren't Christians, they were Easter Worshippers

[Sea Dangles]

I think his point was some types intersect depending on denomination. Easter/ Passover. Christmas/Hanukkah. But I am unsure.

easter and passover often intersect, but they aren’t the same holiday, not even close.

Basically. I grew up Catholic Easter was a catholic holiday.. it was never sold as Christian . That was my point not that it wasn't a Christian holiday

Funny we don't call pedophiles priests.. Christian priests. we call them catholic priests ..

Easter is a Christian Holiday, doesn't matter what you were "Sold", it doesn't change that fact.

And its Catholic priests because the other Christian religions refer to them as Ministers/Pastors/Preachers or other titles, different religions have different titles for their clergy.

Why do you Trumplicans always interrupt a good liberal rant, with facts?

Maybe because I wear my tin-foil too tight and drink my kool-aid from an Octoberfest mug.

So we can be specific with the names of clergy ... but we can't cover
all those killed as easter worshipers even if we know ..

So explain to me how based on your statement that easter worshipers
doesn't clearly suggest those celebrating a Christian Holiday aka Christians

Yet the POTUS doesn't call them christians either but theres no issue ??

WDMSO, neither Obama nor Hilary would have EVER referred to the New Zealand victims as "Ramadan worshippers". Not ever. If you asked them why they would never refer to them that way, they'd say it would have been insulting and offensive. But it's more than OK to refer to Christians as such.


And they don't worship "Easter". They celebrate the resurrection and ascension of Christ. We don't worship candy or colored eggs or bunnies carrying baskets.

Phrasing it the way they did, is demeaning and trivializing. Everyone tells me what a brilliant speaker Obama was, so I can only assume it was intentional.

And your proof is exactly what? But again Trump never mentioned Christians or Easter and your good with that. I get it

My proof is, and it's pretty solid as far as proof goes, is that neither Hilary nor Obama has ever once referred to muslims as "Ramadan worshippers".

Either prove me wrong, or admit I'm right, please?

Hey, feel free to put words in their mouths why don't you. Jim, your ability to just make #^&#^&#^&#^& up and have total confidence in your speculation is utterly Trump like.

Easter is about the resurrection. The people there were worshiping the resurrection. Easter Worshipers.

Phrasing it the way they did, is demeaning and trivializing. Everyone tells me what a brilliant speaker Obama was, so I can only assume it was intentional.

The Associated Press used the exact same term after the Notre Dame fire.

This whole thing is just fake outrage and a device conservatives are very practiced at. Make a ridiculous grand conspiracy charge, i.e. liberals hate Christians and then twist yourself into a pretzel to spin everything to support the narrative.

"This whole thing is just fake outrage"

So you have the ability to read people's minds. Impressive.

The idiot mayor of South Bend who is running for potus, has publicly said again and again and again (before announcing his run), what a good guy Pence is. But as soon as he declared his run, at that exact nanosecond, he decided Pence was a gay-bashing hatemonger, and has been bashing Pence non-stop,

Now, this mayor went to Harvard and Oxford, and worked at Mackenzie. So we can assume he's sharp. And for some reason, he has concluded it will benefit his campaign in the primary, if he goes on a mission to tell everyone how horrible Pences views on homosexuality are.

So here's my question to you, Spence, is why did this very smart guy, conclude that his popularity among democrats would increase, if he relentlessly bashed Christianity?

Answer...liberals hate christians!!!

And he claims to be a Christian, and expresses that, by embracing late term abortion and by smearing a nice guy. Hooray!!


If you read every history book ever written, you wouldn't find a comparable case of an entire political party so willingly throwing themselves upon the sword. These crazy ideas will play well in places that they will win anyway (CT and CA), if you think that's the way to win in OH, NC, and FL, good for you...

wow.....something in the coffee

[scottw]

can we just start calling hillary, obama and the left "government worshipers" whenever they gather in different places and pray or rally for the government to do something or does it have to be a holiday like "May Day worshipers"?
