The New York Times recently published an exhaustive list of the all of the people our President has insulted via Twitter since he announced his candidacy.
First point: Wow. Just wow. It is truly overwhelming to witness this level and volume of pettiness, vitriol, and infantility all in one place.
Second point: It is truly disheartening and depressing and enraging to witness this level and volume of pettiness, vitriol, and infantility from the leader of the free world, from the man who represents America on the world stage, from the man I am forced to call "my President."
Third point: Although many of these insults may not officially qualify as "unChristian" (for maybe they are merely sophomoric), many more of them do, especially when read from the lens of I Corinthians 13 (i.e., the "love chapter).
Final point: If you claim to be an evangelical Christian and can read the entirety of that list while still defending this man, then the Gospel of Republicanity, and not the Gospel of the Christ, owns your soul. You are a blasphemous embarrassment to true Christians everywhere.
