Religion: Calling out Trump is long overdue
Re: “Evangelical leaders decry call for Trump’s removal,” (TNT,12/21).
Rejoice! Finally an evangelical publication, Christianity Today, has seen the light and called for the impeached president’s removal from office.
This gutsy move makes you wonder what took them so long, particularly when Trump’s immorality and corruption have been easily visible from deep space for years.
The real question is how any religious organization can lend its support to Trump, a poster boy for unethical behavior.
Christianity Today’s courageous condemnation will hopefully embolden other theologians to follow suit and help rid us of this stain on our democracy.
