Let’s put religion aside for the moment. It was damned hard
work Jesus did to help us see the power of redemption. Damned hard work.
Redemption is one of the fundamental tenets of Christianity and a sure measure
of the true Christian, to be able to forgive another as a way of active
participation in the process of redemption.
But now we have a soulless president who replaces forgiveness
with division and fear, all for political ends. The other is not forgiven but
rather demeaned and turned into a satan. Many Christians have made this man
their savior and, without thinking, turned their backs on the teaching of Jesus.
Claims that America is a fundamentally Christian nation are
made questionable by this behavior. There are many things in America that need
fixing, but there are many in need of forgiveness and redemption as well.
