That seems to be part of the consensus of most of the NeverTrump crowd, at least. His multiple marriages, pride in his many sexual exploits, ownership of strip joints and casinos, etc. All fair criticisms, mind you. I get it.But permit me to ask you…..How do you feel about the MLK holiday________________
MLK just spoke and emphasized the equal rights that are guaranteed by our constitution. A large majority of people back then and today still dont know what our constitution is about. So many of the folks affiliated MLK’s speeches as a marvelous creation of equality he owns.As far as the holiday , to some it just keeps racism alive.
Nor should there be any room for false accusations of racism in the Body of Christ.Are you implying that MLK’s race shields him from any criticism________________
You’re not getting it. I don’t think you understand what I’m driving at or why I mentioned MLK at all in reference to Trump’s morals. Here’s the bottom line. If having a history of sexual immorality disqualified Trump from being President, at least in the mind of anyone who is consistent, it should disqualify MLK from having his birthday celebrated as a national holiday. MLK also had a history of sexual immorality up until the night before he was murdered. This has nothing to do with his race, though someone has already insinuated I’m being a racist. This has everything to do with consistency. So if Trump should not be President, MLK’s birthday should not be celebrated as a national holiday, either________________
I imagine 80% or more of our Presidents committed adultery during their tenure as President________________

Any leader of people should display acceptable morals. We know there is no such thing as moral purity in any sect. Mans Morality is on a sliding scale from the worst to the best. None are perfect.The point that I would make is that neither of the candidates have the morals to be POTUS not to mention the direction either would take our country. While Hillary’s morals , in my opinion , are worse than Trumps , both reside close to the bottom of the scale.

I agree here. I think too many of us are willing to believe the worst of folk without knowing them.I would hate to see many leading Americans, even church leaders exposed to the scrutiny given MLK and many others.I personally respected MLK for his stands. Many leaders could take a few pages from his life. But to the OP, I think a better comparison would be the Woman Trump is running against, where morals come into play. But also a qualifier: Of course I understand where you are coming from RS. ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
And since the FBI was intentionally out to smear MLK, you have to wonder how much was true and how much was sensationalized.

But also a qualifier: Of course I understand where you are coming from RS. And i actually agree with you about MLK. His stand was right . The Bible taught it long before he did. Thus we as Christians should be applying those principles to our lives with or without MLK. I think the same way about Trump. His platform is right even if he is riddled with flaws________________
Actually apples and oranges. MLK was memorialized after his death and he’s not running for the leadership position of the US. Trump has never knowingly helped anyone that couldn’t somehow benefit himselfMLK came from nothing. Trump was born on Third base and thinks he hit a home run in life. The admonition in Matthew 5:22

No way, Patrick. If adultery and womanizing disqualify Trump from being President, then they disqualify Reverend MLK from having his birthday made into a national holiday. And if you are going to judge Trump’s motives for helping others, then let’s try that on MLK to be fair. Maybe his whole movement was about glorifying himself since he obviously was one person in public and another on in private. It seems he may have been Sharpton/Jackson with a better personality________________
