Sen. Ted Cruz: 'God Isn't Done with America Yet' - Politics - CBN News - Christian News 24-7 - CBN.com

In this interview, Cruz states: "This country remains a country I believe grounded in values, grounded in faith. But far too many Christians have ceded the public arena to people that aren't believers"

The only people we should have in the public arena are those who believe as he does? Is Crux advocating a theocracy? It sure sounds like it.

Hopefully God isn't done with the good Senator yet.

But I suspect he is.

God help us.

He didn't say that.

No, he is not advocating a theocracy. That is a gross distortion of what he said. I can agree with him that we would be better if we were more grounded in values than we have become. We probably have broad agreement on what those values ought to be. I doubt that voting for Cruz would further that objective, though.

The way this guy riles up the anti-Christian bigoted leftists over basically nothing is amazing.

I wonder if ol' Rafael could point out where being a 'believer' is a requirement stated in the Constitution for being active in the public arena?

No, he is not advocating it, and no, it does not sound like it.

Again, he never said it was. I don't imagine it will stop others from putting words in his mouth though.
