Turncoat warning..

[ironglows]

It is likely you will be hearing from this guy, since he is now cooperating with fake news and turning against evangelicals.  Here is a video he did for fake news, he condemns some evangelical churches, and I don't know what churches he was involved in, I have not seen such attitudes as he accuses the churches of, but then I have never been a fan of the mega churches.  http://www.pbs.org/wnet/amanpour-and-company/video/rev-rob-schenck-pres-trump-used-the-bible-as-a-prop/

  Fake news loves him for his anti gun, and basically anti-Christian stance.. 

  He accuses Christians of many things, most being off-the-wall.  He and his brother Paul were at one time, prominent pro-life leaders in the Buffalo area, and by invitation of a cousin, I attended one of their rallies.
  First time I attended, I learned that the brothers were originally Jews...OK, so there is a Messianic Jews movement going on, so that sounds logical.  By the second meeting, I sensed that something was fishy, the way they tried to build a hierarchy and brushed off  some very good suggestions by others, so I decided that something didn't add up with them, so I didn't attend any more.

  Next thing I heard, they were down in Washington, DC, and had turned Roman Catholic.  I thought ..OK, so they see things from a different angle now..Not sure of this conversion, but heard it somewhere. He seems to have wavered back and forth on abortion..

  So what is Rob Schenck up to now..it appears he is some form of an "evangelical", condemning other evangelicals. ..But seeing how he is condemning th is very popular president and principles long held by Biblical Christians, it causes me to wonder if my first assessment of "unabashed opportunist", was the correct one.
 After all, he now seems to be consorting mostly atheist, fake news which many Christians consider their  spiritual nemesis.

This Wikipedia article seems to display his flip-flop manner;

read through it and the only affiliation with churches i saw were protestant faiths. You dont just turn catholic. To convert to the catholic church you have to go through formal training and be baptized into the church or be born into a catholic family and be baptized. took my wife almost 6 months to go through it. You just cant walk into a catholic church and claim to be a catholic like you can walk into a methodist chruch and call yourself methodists. You can walk into any catholic church and attend mass but that doesnt make you a catholic. Id like to see where you found that he was allowed with that history to be baptized into the catholic church? Please dont take this as picking a fight. It just blows me away that something like that was even said on the internet and im curious as to its source and how much of it is truth and how much is just bs.

Lloyd;
  I suspect that when I was informed about Rob Schenck becoming Roman Catholic, the person who told me, must have confused him with his brother Paul!  The mention of any being Catholic, is not really germaine to the discussion, in any case.

  As I said previously, I attended a couple pro-life rallyies by invitation, back in the 80s.  At that time, I lost interest in the two brothers efforts, since in my opinion, they didn't pass the "smell test" !
  The brother Paul was there, and just as active as Rob, but I thought he was evangelical, since I do not recall him wearing the priestly clothing or collar.  Is the priest's clothing optional ?
   If you read the above linked article, I think you will find much confusion in Paul's statement, which I doubt neither Catholics or Evangelicals would support. 
   Here's a clip from that statement..
  " I'll vote Biden because the Trump "pro-life" charade must end. If there's one thing clear about the Trump administration, it is that it does not support the sanctity of human life or the dignity of the human person. We need an administration that will protect human life by defending human dignity, something Trump appears unwilling to do. That is why I'll vote for Joe Biden. "

  Here is a Wikipedia article concerning the Schenck bros.  I think you and I can agree that perhaps such a confused start in their religious life...only led to further confusion in their later ministries..

I don't really see him as a turncoat. I see him as a squirrel falling out of his personal tree.

  Might be Dee..   ..But be assured, it must be some kind of a NUT tree !
