Trump panders to Christians - calls the Bible his favorite book - but refuses to name his favorite bible verses.
"I'm wondering what one or two of your favorite Bible verses are"
Trump: "Well, I wouldn't want to get into it because to me that's very personal."
"You know when I talk about the Bible it's very personal"
"There's no verse you that means a lot to you that you think about or cite?"
Trump: "The Bible means a lot to me but I don't want to get into specifics"
"Even to cite a verse you like?"
Trump: "No. I don't want to do that"
"Old Testament guy or New testament guy?"
Trump: "Probably equal"
Nice try, Katz ... I don't have a "favorite verse" that I could quote either.
Look, we all know you and others on your side are doing their best to smear Trump, and for that matter, every Republican running. Lay off for a while, and take a look at your own lousy candidates.
I do get it. Trump has no idea whats in the Bible. Nothing wrong with that except Trump claims the Bible is his favorite book. "The Bible! Nothing beats the Bible"
You don't have any idea what's in the Bible. I'll bet Trump knows more than you do.
Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches,.."
How ironic. People bash Obama for years as not being Christian enough, yet he actually has knowledge of the Bible and Christianity and goes to church.
Is that why he so often misquotes the Bible, and the meaning of scripture? He doen't know it very well.
Where does he go to church?

What makes you so sure? I'll bet he knows more than you do.
Besides, since when did you people want a President that could quote scripture? What is the value of being able to quote scripture? Many of you non-believers can quote a passage or two ... but you have no clue what it means.

And what will Hilary's next book be? "How to lie and cheat and avoid going to jail?"

So what. If the good Christians care so little about the direction their country is heading, then they can sit on their ass during election again. They refused to vote for Romney because he was not the right religion.
I can't name a bible verse but I believe in God. I don't sit and read John till I drool.
I don't think that was the reason they didn't vote for Romney. A lot of well meaning Christians voted for Obama, or he wouldn't have won. I conclude that there were other reasons they didn't vote for Romney. Obama is a master of deception, and I think he has deceived a lot of people into believing his rhetoric. Turns out he can lie like the best of them. "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor."

This will be the election season where separation of church and state will suddenly become important to those who will still argue that people have the right to deny baked goods to paying customers because of their religious beliefs.
Yea, they will kneel at the altar of this thrice-married hedonistic, serial adulterer and declare it good.
I've read the bible many times in my 58 years and yet could not recite one passage. Just because the bible is one of my favorite books does not mean I can recite it. I try to live by the lessons it teaches which to me is much more honorable than being able to recite a passage verbatim.
Nobody asked him to recite a verse verbatim but if you claim to have a favorite book you should be able to say what your favorite parts are. Trump hasn't even read the Cliff's Notes.

Or they could have just stayed at home and not voted at all. Or voted 3rd party. Or do a write in.
