RE: In Case Anyone Thinks Trumptards Have A Shred of Decency

My problem with McCain stems entirely from the religious folks giving him a pass from THEIR own strictures. Those Christians with the intermittent 'family values' and advocating selective enforcement of their holy laws really grate on my nerves.
IOW's it doesn't have much of anything to do with McCain, it's the willingness of folks that by their own beliefs should be resistant to politicians who pander to them but nevertheless LOVE being pandered to.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Too bad there was no godly justice to give Hitler a cancer - oh wait. Hitler was godly justice, a catholic sent from god to wipe out Jews - my bad.
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"
