Most of my day is spent with family, researching, writing code, learning or singing music, cycling, hiking, reading, praying etc etc. I write in one forum here so as to limit its reach in my life. And I literally have far more concern for the effect of excusing Trump on the witness of the church in the world than I do on Trump himself. My appeals are always to the truth of scripture as it butts up against what compromises are required to support this man.
I can see that you are expressing concern for me though, and I do very much appreciate that.
I often found in nat sci that I would have more in common scientifically with the non Christian's than the christian creationists on that topic. And it is no different here. But dont forget I found myself in complete disagreement with all those same people on the issue of the artiste baker that would not create a specialty cake celebrating a gay marriage. I am motivated by what I understand to be truth, and I will stand with whoever is speaking the truth on a given topic.
We really should be of a similar mind on this topic too. That is, again, my primary concern.
