 So Trumps morals disqualify him, huh? |
Resident Skeptic |
That seems to be part of the consensus of most of the NeverTrump crowd, at least. His multiple marriages, pride in his many sexual exploits, ownership of strip joints and casinos, etc. All fair criticisms, mind you. I get it.
But permit me to ask you.....How do you feel about the MLK holiday?

MLK just spoke and emphasized the equal rights that are guaranteed by our constitution. A large majority of people back then and today still dont know what our constitution is about. So many of the folks affiliated MLK's speeches as a marvelous creation of equality he owns.
As far as the holiday , to some it just keeps racism alive.

During this time, the nation struggled with what role four million newly freed slaves would assume in American life. With the triumph of the Radical Republicans in Congress, the Constitution was amended to grant full citizenship to former slaves and promise them equal treatment under the law, a promise that took more than a century to fulfill. |

Nor should there be any room for false accusations of racism in the Body of Christ.
Are you implying that MLK's race shields him from any criticism?

You're not getting it. I don't think you understand what I'm driving at or why I mentioned MLK at all in reference to Trump's morals.
Here's the bottom line. If having a history of sexual immorality disqualified Trump from being President, at least in the mind of anyone who is consistent, it should disqualify MLK from having his birthday celebrated as a national holiday. MLK also had a history of sexual immorality up until the night before he was murdered. This has nothing to do with his race, though someone has already insinuated I'm being a racist. This has everything to do with consistency. So if Trump should not be President, MLK's birthday should not be celebrated as a national holiday, either.

I imagine 80% or more of our Presidents committed adultery during their tenure as President.

I somewhat agree with you. Any leader of people should display acceptable morals. We know there is no such thing as moral purity in any sect. Mans Morality is on a sliding scale from the worst to the best. None are perfect.
The point that I would make is that neither of the candidates have the morals to be POTUS not to mention the direction either would take our country. While Hillary's morals , in my opinion , are worse than Trumps , both reside close to the bottom of the scale.
As Far as MLK holiday , his positive actions should be weighed against his improprieties and go from there. |

I agree here. I think too many of us are willing to believe the worst of folk without knowing them.
I would hate to see many leading Americans, even church leaders exposed to the scrutiny given MLK and many others.
I personally respected MLK for his stands. Many leaders could take a few pages from his life. 
But to the OP, I think a better comparison would be the Woman Trump is running against, where morals come into play. 
But also a qualifier: Of course I understand where you are coming from RS.

And since the FBI was intentionally out to smear MLK, you have to wonder how much was true and how much was sensationalized.

You'd have to be in total denial to say he has not helped a whole lot of people who were in trouble. His platform alone is a huge counter balance to his faults.
But of course that is not the point. You can't have it both ways.
MLK was a serial adulterer, denied the deity of Christ and inerrancy of scripture and was a plagiarist. Yet most Never Trump Republicans would ever consider that these defects disqualify him from being considered the main Apostle of the Civil Rights movement and his birthday being made a national holiday. But when it comes to Trump, we pick up our stones and start throwing and shout NEVER TRUMP.
You won't see very many comments posted to this thread because they know I'm telling the truth. Woe unto Pharisees! Hypocrites!!

And i actually agree with you about MLK. His stand was right . The Bible taught it long before he did. Thus we as Christians should be applying those principles to our lives with or without MLK.
I think the same way about Trump. His platform is right even if he is riddled with flaws.

Actually apples and oranges.
MLK was memorialized after his death and he's not running for the leadership position of the US.
Trump has never knowingly helped anyone that couldn't somehow benefit himself
MLK came from nothing. Trump was born on Third base and thinks he hit a home run in life.
The admonition in Matthew 5:22 was written specifically for people like Trump, even though in reality it doesn't apply to him cause he's not my brother. |

Was Ralph Abernathy out to smear him? The FBI wasn't smearing him when he plagiarized and denied the deity of Christ.

I'm sure he has helped a lot of people , He has also shafted a lot of people.
Looks like we can have it both ways here.
I really dont know enough about MLK to make an argument.
I would never throw stones until I see that the target has abused others and profits at someones else's expense and gets away with it.
Would saying you would release your tax returns after the audit and now saying he would not release his tax return qualify him as a hypocrite or just a liar?

No way, Patrick. If adultery and womanizing disqualify Trump from being President, then they disqualify "Reverend" MLK from having his birthday made into a national holiday. And if you are going to judge Trump's motives for helping others, then let's try that on MLK to be fair. Maybe his whole movement was about glorifying himself since he obviously was one person in public and another on in private. It seems he may have been Sharpton/Jackson with a better personality.

MLK came from nothing. Trump was born on Third base and thinks he hit a home run in life.
The admonition in Matthew 5:22 was written specifically for people like Trump, even though in reality it doesn't apply to him cause he's not my brother. |
No way, Patrick. If adultery and womanizing disqualify Trump from being President, then they disqualify "Reverend" MLK from having his birthday made into a national holiday. And if you are going to judge Trump's motives for helping others, then let's try that on MLK to be fair. Maybe his whole movement was about glorifying himself since he obviously was one person in public and another on in private. It seems he may have been Sharpton/Jackson with a better personality. |
I dont think that adultery and womanizing by itself are the major roadblocks to trumps acceptance. Its that plus all the other baggage that are tattooed into his character that makes him an undesirable individual . |
