Watch out for this bird !

  James Talarico claims to be a semenary student, working toward his masters. I have watched some of his speeches and he butchers the Bible. According to him,  "God could be male, could be female, could be trans". By time a student reaches seminary level, he should be intimately familiar with the scriptures. Taking vs 1 out of context James cites (Gen 1:1), claiming God is both male & female . ..But he ignores vs 5.. " And God called the light day, and the darkness HE called light".  James also ignored vs 10, ""And God called the dry land earth; and the gathering of waters called HE seas.". The rest of the Bible refutes James' claim throughout, for instance (Psalm 95) in several places.  Keep in mind, the old rule.. "TEXT OUT OF CONTEXT, IS OFTEN JUST PRETEXT".  If he will lie about the Bible, what else will he lie about?  See his claim in Youtube ..

  He even quotes from the apocryphal "Gospel of Thomas", which is non-cannon..  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THW6P_ygQYk

         While serving in the Texas House Talarico started to pursue a Master of Divinity at Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary.

          Texas Senate hopeful James Talarico, a rising star in the Democratic Party who often cites Scripture when pushing liberal positions, trained at a   seminary that teaches prospective pastors to preach about social justice.

  Yes; one of those seminaries that real Bible scholars consider to be apostate.  Talarico backs all that LGBTQ crap..

  ..But what does the Bible actually say?   In John 1:24-29 it speaks opf that stuff;

   24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their [a]women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the [c]woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

...And how abiut (1 Cor 6:9-10);

  ... 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [a]homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

  He evidently has no problem with abortion or child mutilation..

I wonder if the race between him and Paxton will ever get around to fuel prices and the economy or just end up being a bunch of theological mudslinging from both sides?

 I do rather hope the Concord Monitor would simply face the fact that according to the Bible, Talarico is falsely interpreting the scriptures in a very twisted manner.

  Just as the Constitution is the guidebook on how America should be run, so the Bible is the guidebook for Christians. That should not be too hard to fihgure out, since it has been used that way by Christians since Jesus paid the ultimate price for our sins.

 The Concord Monitor need not try to run cover for a slippery young man. Giving a vote of confidence for one who bens and twists God's given words, speaks for itself ! ...And it speaks with increased volume.

Pretty sure old slippery flounder prefers twisted scripture along with his cocktails?

[Trump1]

Looks like Talarico is currently leading in the polls. I'm curious as to what Texan's find inspirational about his campaign.

[DDZ]

Talarico's platform is centered on an anti billionaire message. Yet he has no problem taking campaign money from billionaires and super PAC's. Just another POS. 

[Trump1]

Billionaires are the problem.
As for his campaign funds 98% are grassroots donations. Since billionaires have turned elections into a monetary contest one can't fault him too much for accepting some big money to stay competitive, or in this case, ahead

Hypocrite!

[ironglowz]

  It appears that the Dems are making a play for the Christian vote with Talafreako, but that is like getting the Kentucky Colonel to babysit your chickens !

  No Christian could fall for his line, except those who are unfamiliar with the Bible..

Don't be surprised. Millions of Christians had voted for Obama and Biden. don't think that pattern will change for this smooth talker.

  There are a sizeable number of "Christians" who need some basic Christian education.

[Trump1]

It will be interesting to see what Christian Texas voters think about Paxton and his acts of infidelity vs. Talifreako?s poor interpretation of scripture.

[George Foster]

Infidelity certainly doesn't bother the Trump LOVERS!

[ironglowz]

Infidelity certainly doesn't bother the Trump LOVERS!

  Nor the Obama, Biden, Clinton, Johnson, JFK, or FDR lovers !

     So many of the left have already forgotten 9/11, it is no surprise that they have forgotten the antics under the resolute desk and the messy blue dress !

  Speaking of infidelity..  Today's commies in the Democrat party, seem to have lost any fidelity they ever may had to the US Constitution !

  They already want to destroy the 1st and 2nd amendments of the Constitution and are on thnemarch to destroy the rest !

  Fidelity to our Constitution, should be the primary duty of any elected figure !

[Mule 11]

Infidelity certainly doesn't bother the Trump LOVERS!

 And, leftist fools have zero fidelity to this great nation and its founding
