I was born and raised in Texas so I’ve seen it. Millions of people today are praying that Dorian turn away from land, and treating those people with mockery or condescension because they believe it could help is part of how the overly secularized Left has lost lots of voters.

When I was growing up there was a vital religious Left. It is BECAUSE of my spiritual views that I’m a Democrat. The idea that religious or spiritual people should find no home in the Democratic Party is hardly the view of someone wanting to win in 2020.

For sure, Jesus would be a democrat today.
I was with you. Willing a hurricane away by using the mind? Now toying with religion as a means to win? After seeing this thread I’m done, MW.
I said it once & I'll say it again. THE DEMOCRATS/LEFT ARE A THOUSAND TIMES MORE CHRISTIAN THAN THE GOP EVER HOPE TO BE, BECAUSE WE CARE & TRY TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE. AMEN🙏❤ I guess we don't pray enough in public. 🇺🇸🌴🍑☮🌊
Literally no one thinks this.
Marianne, have you read the Democratic Party platform lately? Have you read & compared the Republican Party platform? I find what's good in your views seems Judeo/Christian based. And what's bad in your views seems rebellion & pride based -- the left's spiritual immaturity.
Prayer and spirituality, if it gives one guidance and comfort, by all means. But it also does sort of remove overall personal responsibility from the equation when your central belief says everything on earth is dictated by an omniscient god controlling yours and other's lives.
There are plenty of religious and spiritual people in the Democratic Party. We just don't sound like lunatics.
Most Democrats are religious, without wearing it on their sleeves. "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States." Art6 cl3 You seem more like a palm reader @ a Renaissance Festival than presidential material.
You can be as religious or spiritual as you like but your political view will have to choose if you value the platform of the republicans or the democrats (independents too). There are religious/spiritual folks in both parties. Atheists in both also
I have never read such a discombobulated set of tweets as are yours, @marwilliamson ! Just what are you trying to say? The Left is not religious? The Left is religious? The Left separates Church and State and that's good? or bad? Spit it out , girl, in simple words!!
