Fools cannot be convinced against their will! | Afram News

Christian Right Evangelicals and GOP Loyalists cannot be convinced against their wills, because you leave them confused still. Just as everyone has a nose; everyone has an opinion. However, seemingly Christian Right Evangelicals and GOP Loyalists allowed a fool (TRUMP) to convince them that is alright to substitute one sin for another sin (Supreme Court Justices) against the will of God. If this is what they want Americans to believe, then they are sadly mistaken, because we know that they voted for someone who thinks the way they think: White Privilege. God-fearing Americans know, because the Bible tells us so: “Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.” “Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.” “He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.” (Proverbs 26: 4-6).
