      Real ironic coming from someone who has been cheering on the left's attempt to systematically dismantle our legal system and constitutional protections in their flailing attempt to "get Trump"any way they can.

          That isnt what I said pix. But the fact you translated what I actually said into that is why we cant communicate. You need to figure out how to read what I'm saying, not what you are imagining I'm trying to say.

            It's not word salad rogue, but I'm sure it's more in your lane these days to poke fun and support CP giving up than to simply try to understand what was said

              Considering that you flatly refused to explain what you meant you are hardly in the position of demanding that others "figure out" what you mean and criticizing those who can't.

                I understood it right away and English is not even my main language so I think it should be possible for other to understand it as well.

                  For those that are pretending this post is 'word salad', here is a simplification that should clear the air - at least for those that are honest enough to admit they were wrong:

                  A potential problem here is not the logic but the combination of the use of lengthy and similar descriptive terms for two different things. We have pro-trump Christians, and we have people calling pro trump Christians 'fake Christians'. Lots of adjectives modifying the word 'Christian'. But these are just the terms being used in the post I'm responding to. So, if we substitute pro-Trump Christian with 'PT Christian' and refer to a fake christian just as a 'fake' we just have

                  ----
                  How does an atheist calling a PT Christian 'fake' translate into a Christian calling a PT Christian 'fake'.
                  ----
                  And for those not following the conversation very closely, CP justified saying that Christians were calling PT Christians fake by referring to an atheist that had called PT Christians fake.



                  The rest follows and can be simplified using similar substitutions if it is also 'too hard to follow'


                  Exactly how do you derive that conclusion from my statement:





                  ____




                  I did not imply you merely amened them.

                  The implication is that it is inconsistent for you to proclaim that calling Trump supporting Christians 'fake Christian'' is bad when you regularly support Christians that tear Trump opposing Christian's down every chance they get. I have never once seen you ever remark their comments were unjustified or went too far. I have seen you explicitly agree with them in their attacks. Even egg them on as it were

                  Not only that, you regularly participate in labeling Christians you disagree with you on issues related to Trump as mentally unstable.

                      No Jim, it’s because your brain has been rotted by TDS is why communication breaks down. You contradict yourself so often, it’s a wonder you know what direction north is. You’re pretending we are steps away from a dictatorship. That’s insane because if that was remotely true, we’d see people going to prison, going silent, or disappearing for being critical of Trump. We don’t see any of that going on. Are you afraid that you’ll disappear or something terrible will happen if you make a statement critical of Trump? Can you name specific laws or policies that have changed, that will make it easier to throw you into prison, for being critical of the president? Like I said, you’ve lost your mind and don’t even notice it.

                        Well, hopefully, not 'that'. What you dont understand is that Donald Trump is just using Christians to get what he wants. And if Christian's suddenly are no longer useful to him, he'll could easily end up worse to them than those you label Christian hating.

                        But unless the person nominated on the Democrat side is just a liberal version of Trump, I'll be voting against him.

                          Again, I did not say Trump is a tyrant. I said he is working to remove the mechanisms in place that are protections against tyranny.

                          Apparently, you dont understand the difference.

                            Jim, it was a long confusing run-on sentence that would have made Mrs Magillicutty keep you after school for a week. I know you can do better.

                                Actually, I think you just left the reservation --- I don't believe I did any such thing. I brought up the fact that one of YOUR atheist colleagues was calling "PT" Christians fake.
