I know you’re joking but I’ve often argued that the Bible was written under the influence of Satan rather than God. (if either entity actually exists)
It makes much more sense, logically.
The rules;
Among the followers of Judaism, Christianity and Islam who believe there is a Satan or Devil there is general agreement that:
Satan is not stupid, in fact he is extremely clever;
Satan can influence people;
Satan can influence the writing of books;
Satan can influence the way people act;
Satan has been around since before the creation of the world;
Satan’s mission is to have us destroy ourselves;
Satan can not create a person, plant or anything in nature.
Put yourself in Satan’s sandals. You have no powers to do anything physically. You cannot cause a flood. You cannot blow up the earth or the universe. The only thing you can do is influence people. People are not stupid. You can’t just take over one person and use him or her to preach the destruction of the earth. The rest of the people would say, “That’s an evil idea. We like life. We like this creation. We are not going to destroy it.”
The people 2500 years ago believed the earth was flat and they had scant understanding of anything on it. Virtually everything was a mystery. It would not be difficult for Satan to implant an idea of a creator in their minds. He could try out several ideas in different people. He could take the ideas that gained greatest acceptance and refine them over time. The people with the most acceptable ideas would become respected in their tribe. Satan would work with them, continually refining the story but always with the purpose of ultimately destroying Creation.
“…“this Christian God that we serve is the foundation of our country” and people need to be reminded that “Christians are loving people, are nonjudgmental people,…” WRONG ON BOTH COUNTS! and obviously god doesn’t give a damn teddy running because he certainly isn’t winning. shove that sh*t right up your asses.
She said, “…this individual has an incredible talent to bring us out of this crisis.”
Exactly what crisis are you talking about…??? (and don’t say the Black Muslim from Kenya) And please give an example of Ted’s experience at solving a crisis (he’s the same dichead that shut the government down and cost us $24B)
Teddy — channeling his inner Blues Brother — believes that he’s on a “mission from God”
Of course, Ben Carson also claims to be the Good Lord’s chosen messenger in the realm of American politics … as did Huckabee, Santorum, Perry, Walker …. is there a pattern here?
This is starting to seem like the story of the “anti-christ” seizing political power and taking over the world.
The story goes about saying the devil will fool people to vote for him by claiming he is good christian and is going to “show them the face of God” once elected.
I wonder if he has the 666 branding irons ready?….
Heidi Cruz reminds me of a lot of the women I knew when growing up in Evangelical churches. She seems frightened, in a vague sort of way. I sort of doubt she is enjoying the limelight, she has had issues in her past. I can’t imagine Teddy being real supportive with her.

Let’s see, a God that hates, discriminates and spreads human suffering denying healthcare to people, that would be Satan? Right?
Larry Schmitt February 10th, 2016 at 14:56
I think you just described his followers. And Satan doesn’t discriminate, he treats everyone the same. More than can be said for the phony Christians.

Well, he won’t get to the WH, so his whole campaign will feel like a hell of a sacrifice for him after all.
