1. My respect for this man knows NO bounds

he is a POWERHOUSE .... a compelling speaker I hope to see as president one day. He challenges but in a loving way that may disapprove of ideas, but never the person.

Quite simply: Talarico is the balm and the strength and the wisdom this country desperately needs.

4. I voted for him.

He grew on me. I think he'd make
a good senator.

3. Wait...

He’s sermonizing about separation of church and state… in a church? Irony much? *:eyeroll*

5. I think it's a PERFECT place

to teach what TRUE christianity is................ instead of appearances and show.

7. One thing for a politician to be "religious"

… but IMHO, pontificating on it as a politician is just wrong. Way too much blending the two together these days as a political tool.

Jimmy Carter was obviously religious, but I don’t remember him ever spewing biblical stuff from the WH. He simply lived his beliefs to his dying day—obviously not an act to garner votes.

I suppose I’ve had a bellyful of the Repukes in general and the orange bawbag in particular using religion (especially when it’s a complete pretense) to sucker in ignorant, easily-led people. The whole thing turns my stomach.

8. Jimmy Carter

Was KNOWN for quoting scripture. Even in his inaugural address.

9. Politics and religion use each other to gain power and wealth.
