He sure seems to be entertaining YOU.

And oh, by the way - god, god, god, god.

Somehow I don't think God gives a rip about the capital G

Jesus was the ultimate liberal progressive revolutionary.

By the way, the crime of Sodom was pride and inhospitality.
Sodom and Gomorrah Clearly Had Nothing To Do With Homosexuality
The old "Sodom and Gomorrah's sin was inhospitality" deceit; it's quite sad what you liberals resort to. However, the truth is:

"Perhaps the most common Scripture-twisting done by the homosexualist movement is pretending that the sin of Sodom was inhospitality, rather than homosexuality. Even a cursory review of the text of Genesis 19 and related texts, however, reveals clearly that Sodom’s principal sin had to be aberrosexual in nature. Genesis 19, ironically, provides perhaps the most exuberantly over-the-top illustration of hospitality in all of literature. Nobody was a better host than Lot.

Sodom’s Sin was Sodomy, not Inhospitality

You don't want to answer my question. I get it, you don't want to admit that you're telling god what to do. You know what? I doubt she gives a rip what you think about what she does.

Many of the polls taken are invalid. 1) Many of the polls did not include Gary Johnson or Jill Stein (these two currently poll at 9%-10% combined--statistically significant number) and only provided random people with 2 choices (not even a Write-In option). 2) Also the polls don't necessarily sample the number of likely voters, but random people within the state the survey is conducted.

Trump has a lot of supporters that will go out and vote. African-American turnout will be significantly lower than previous elections hurting Hillary. Trump has wide appeal in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and even in Michigan, Maine, and New Hampshire. Polls show Gary Johnson is taking away more votes from Hillary and many Bernie voters are backing him. Finally, history supports the GOP taking the White House after 2 terms of Democratic presidency and a weak 2nd term with nothing big to show for or rally around.

God simply turned you people over to your lust.

The 18th Century just called. They want your antiquated philosophies back ! Mike Pence, is that you ?

Bet you guys hate the idea of a WOMAN running this country too !

Sodom’s Sin was Sodomy, not Inhospitality
While some have twisted the scripture to support their own feelings about homosexuality, many Christians point to the actual words in the Bible that describe the story of destruction of Sodom over being uncharitable and abusive to strangers, the poor, sick, and disadvantaged. This reading of the scripture has considerable support in many other references to Sodom in the Bible and Jewish literature.

What was the sin or sins of Sodom and Gomorrah?

And yet Trump's own campaign manager agreed today that the polls are correct, and he is losing. What are you going to do if Trump comes out tomorrow and says he is losing, and people need to work hard to get out the vote? Are you going to tell us all that he's full of crap too?
