I’m an American and a Muslim. Today, I’m asking all Americans of every faith to join me to denounce Donald Trump’s hate speech. His plan to shut Muslims out of America has no place in our Democracy. His prejudice against Muslims is reckless, dangerous, and racist. Trump doesn’t understand what makes America great. We’re a nation of different faiths, but we share a common belief that our differences only make us better… and together, we can build a stronger America. That is the greatness of our nation. Every day, Muslims in America like myself are working hard to strengthen our communities. Muslim-Americans own businesses. We’re leaders in communities, teachers in local schools, and members of the Armed Forces. We’re fathers, mothers, sisters, and brothers… we’re your neighbours. Simply put… we’re Americans. As an American… I think that it’s time we said NO to the hate.

Trump isn’t alone. The Republican Party now trumpets hate, greed, and warmongering as its unashamed tenets. Therefore, no Orthodox Christian can have ANYTHING to do with this evil organisation. What does that tell us about Potapov, Paffhausen, Webster, Whiteford, Reardon, Dreher, Trenham, Mattingly, and all the other drooling konvertsy Republicans? What shall they choose? Christ or Ted Cruz? The Church or Marco Rubio? Christ’s Love or Abbot’s Death Penalty Spike?
Yes… what shall they choose? Their eternal destiny DOES depend on their choice…

Let’s keep it simple… the Church condemns all forms of bigotry. Ergo, the Republican Nativist hate being channeled by Donald Trump is evil and all decent people (let alone just Christians) must oppose it. In like manner, the Church condemns warmongering and adventuring in foreign parts… therefore, all decent folks must oppose all Republicans and Dems such as Chilly Hilly. Hate is the opposite of and the total absence of love… Christ incarnated Love… therefore, all those who advocate hate (indeed, bigotry and warmongering are hatred to the nth degree) can NEVER be true followers of the Lord Christ. Bear that in mind as you hear the rants of the “religious”… I do daresay that such reveals them as satanic imposters, doesn’t it?
