Cornel West
#8
RE: Cornel West
I've seen him sometimes on Bill Maher and Democracy Now. I guess he is different than other clergy members because he tolerates gay people and calls them brothers and sisters, and he seems like a cool guy - so no wonder he is not as famous as his bigoted colleagues like Mitch Pacwa, Robert Jeffress, Pat Robertson, the Pope... because Christians love their preachers to be hateful.

And from what I remember in 2016, he was not for Trump nor Hillary but for something else.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
