From a former pastor who knows what the insiders talk about: a warning we would be foolish to ignore.

My second to last paragraph is explicitly about how the author is wrong here.

Please engage in good faith by reading what I say before announcing judgments.

No, your second point doesn't make your case. Biden isn't running now, or did you forget? Not to mention, it doesn't change anything about what the author has to say about the political goals of evangelicals and how Trump would deliver for them, which is the topic of the article.

I hear Putin calling. You better check and see what he wants.

My second to last paragraph doesn't mention Biden at all. I think you are confused. Please take some extra time to read what I said. I am happy to answer questions if you have any.

Please engage in good faith.

Biden is the one deciding US policy, and the responsibility for our foreign policy failures rest with him. There are two viable candidates running to replace him. One candidate promises a less conciliatory approach with Netanyahu, the other promises to help escalate the atrocities.

Which do you think will get you closer to your stated goals?

When you start engaging in good faith, you will get good faith in return.

This does not address anything I said in the paragraph in question. Like I said, you seem to be very confused. Feel free to ask questions and I can help you identify the paragraph or simply copy paste it for your convenience.

What are my stated goals?

Please avoid reflexive labeling, it is dishonest when it does not apply - such as in this case.

If you won't take the time to read and reply to what I say, you can always just not reply at all. Nothing compels you to make things up.

Pure fucking sophistry
