I was told that James Talarico, the pro-gay marriage, trans-kid-loving, pro-abortion Democrat "reverend" running for the Senate in Texas, was the ideal example of Christianity. Never mind the fact that Talarico thinks Mary's Immaculate Conception is proof the Bible is "pro-choice," and ignore the fact that Talarico wants an abortion clinic on every parcel of federal land, or that a massive welfare state is how Jesus will judge us.
He opposes Donald Trump and, for some, that's enough (looking at you, David French).
But not content to have already politicized the Bible, Democrat activist and UCC Bishop Yvette Flunder has decided that the New Testament — the summation of the Christian faith — isn't really the word of God.
They are proposing a new New Testament, the Third Testament, that does away with all that Christian stuff they call "problematic" and "bad theology."

"This is a very dangerous thing that I'm about to say now but since I ... I'm of the opinion that we need a Third Testament," Flunder said. "Because the Bible has become problematic. 'Slaves, obey your masters, as you do the Lord.' It's a text. 'Let the women keep silent in the churches and if they have any questions, let them ask their husbands at home.' I'm a believer. My whole heart, I trust God with my whole heart."
No, you don't. Not if you don't believe the Bible is the complete and inerrant word of God.
Earlier, I told you how Hakeem Jeffries used 2 Corinthians as the basis for disenfranchising millions of Virginia voters, equating it to the struggles of the Apostle Paul's persecution. And Cory Booker gave a sermon-like speech at the Michigan Democratic Convention.
At the same time, Democrats acted very indignant and offended on behalf of Catholics after President Trump had some harsh, but accurate, words for Pope Leo and the Bishops. They can stuff that indignation where the sun doesn't shine, because Democrats are the same people who spent a decade dragging the Little Sisters of the Poor through the courts in an effort to force them to pay for birth control and are about to do the same to the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne in New York, who tried to break the Seal of the Confessional in Washington, and who weaponized the DOJ against pro-life Catholics in an effort to throw them in prison for years under the FACE Act.
To Democrats, everything is political. Even the Bible. Because politics is their religion. Unlike Christianity, however, there is no grace or forgiveness. Sin is determined not by your behavior, but by your skin color and your gender, and you are never able to absolve yourself of those immutable traits. The sins of your forebears are an eternal albatross around your neck. Failing to obey the Left's ever-changing commandments ("Thou shall not use the wrong pronouns!" "Thou shall not have any other god than the State!") is grounds for lifelong persecution and atonement.
It's the modern-day version of public flogging.
And that's why not a single Democrat, who believed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's tattoos were a symbol of impending Christian nationalism, doesn't utter a word about the separation of church and state when it's progressives like Talarico or Flunder advocating for a Leftist version of Christian nationalism. It's also why none of them call for a revision of the Quran, which has far more problematic verses and ones the adherents of Islam live out on a daily basis.
That, of course, is (D)ifferent.
