Rhetorical Analysis Of The Evangelicals

On page 147 of Slouching Towards Bethlehem, there is a passage that I think describes a solution to the problem of sympathy versus empathy. The passage basically states that if we see the value in ourselves, we will be able to discriminate, to love, and to remain indifferent toward others. However, if we do not come to this realization, we will hate those who cannot give to us and will only help others to improve our own image. I agree with the idea that we must come to some realization of who we are in order to reach out and help others for the sake of the good in it. I agree with this because if we do not understand who we are or how we fit into the world, then we will be insecure. This will cause us to seek ways to sure ourselves up and

Thank you very much for giving us enough money to cover VBS. It was a blessing for the church to not have to take that money out of their account. I really appreciate you all being willing givers.

During the Values Voters Summit in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence appeared before a largely evangelical group at the Voters Summit in Washington, D.C. His promise to help Trump restrict abortion rights and appoint right-wing Supreme Court justices drew loud applause from the audience, Mother Jones reports.

American voters are swayed heavily by their upbringing. People tend to share the same political beliefs as their parents; however, religious background gives parental influence a run for its money. In the United States, 78.3% of Americans are Christian making it the most common religious affiliation (Hackett & Grim, 2012). Christianity is rooted in truth and love— love for yourself and others. So when it comes to voting for the next president, many Christians seem to be at a crossroads, because the presidential candidates seem to lack truth, love, or even both. Both candidates use ruthless rhetoric attacking these Christian values. Hillary Clinton is portrayed as a lying murderer, while Trump is painted as a xenophobic entitled ass. Despite core Christian values differing from Donald Trump’s rhetoric, Christian voters are still choosing Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton, because Republican values mirror Christian values.

i too, yearn for the day social justice and political correctness falls off the face of the earth, because on that day i will magically re-possess the god given right these meddling liberals have taken away from me to call this man a frosted fruitcake and no one will be allowed to tell me what linguistics or common decency or connotative word choice is!! as people who are also exercising their freedom of speech to counter my blissful ignorance are not allowed to!! i reserve the right to be a dick, but you do not reserve the right to call me out for being a dick!! because deep inside it also triggers me to have to listen to criticism and to have to suddenly learn manners and conversational skills decades after grade school!! and if i were actually

The affordable care act created a climate that encouraged entrepreneurial thinkers to activate new and disruptive methods of health care delivery (Dyrda 3). Trump wants to repeal and replace Obama care. Which means roughly 20 million people will be without health care when he gets rid of it. Here is a Doctor standpoint on Trump's plans with health care. (Daniel DeBehnke)"From a healthcare standpoint, what will be key moving forward will be how the president-elect fills his key administrative positions, such as the Secretary of Health and Human Services. What Daniel is trying to say is we do not know what is going to happen with health care until we know who Trump is going to put in his cabinet.(Dyrda 3).One Thing by Trump is hoping for by Doing this is to make Competition. Trump wants consumers to shop for healthcare insurance across the state line to improve competitive

To answer this question, I will not depend on concepts such as voter-turnout and demographic blocs often used by political scientists. Instead, I will explore the religion of Donald Trump. For this ambitious task, I will employ philosopher William James and his The Varieties of Religious Experience to illuminate the personal side of religious politics, alongside with sociologist Emile Durkheim and his The Elementary Forms of Religious Life to unpack the communal side.

During a speech made by Ted Cruz while running for office, he includes and introduces customary themes that are used to symbolize American political culture. Ted Cruz uses an ordinary method when giving the speech, first relating the American struggle to his family, especially his mother and father. Then after, he recounts history and how American heroes like George Washington on Ronald Reagan achieved the unimaginable. Ted Cruz’s speech brought a glimpse of light to the listeners at Liberty University, where he introduced and connected equality, liberty, individualism, American Exceptionalism, and self-governance to the common American. Ted Cruz’s anecdotes about his parents and his wife bring many American values to his speech.

Sweet Jesus, You are a gentle presence. You are kind. You are patient. You are loving. You are also sovereign and cannot tolerate the sin of disobedience. Prove Yourself trustworthy to my wife so she may learn to love and obey Your commands without hesitation.

America has also witnessed a rise in evangelical influence on politics and political figures. For example, evangelicals saw in George W. Bush a politician who was championing for their beliefs. Even though they believed that the world was heading toward an ultimate apocalypse, they also felt as though America under Bush was in good hands and on the right track. Bush’s rhetoric of good and bad and the “us vs them” understanding of international politics attracted evangelicals to his ideology and policies.

The Bahá’í teachings follow under The Three Onenesses as it is central in basic Bahá’í teachings. The Bahá’í Faith teaches that there is only one God who is the creator of everything that although we call him by different names, we are all referring to the loving presence who has guided us throughout history, this is the Oneness of God. The Bahá’í believed in equality of all humans regardless of their gender, race, and class. They believed in the elimination of prejudice entirely, this is the Oneness of Humanity. The Bahá’í Faith also conclude that all religions are the same. This would be the Oneness of

It is no big secret that the evangelical community played a role in Trump’s winning of the election. He had solid Christian support throughout his campaign; at least so it seemed. Obviously, people of all sorts — Christian or not — Republican or not — were frustrated at the lack of options. I understand. I was one of them. People were also rightly concerned about Hillary. They were left with a choice of either Armageddon or slow rot. Much was at stake — especially the Supreme Court. I was in a unique place of one who has just discovered that the candidate I might have begrudgingly voted for voted for was, in fact, The Antichrist; a scenario that elevates such decisions to another dimensional reality. After I had shared my thoughts regarding Trump with several Christians supporting him, I often got the question posed to me: “Well, who do we vote for?” As far as I was concerned, the vote was already cast. I knew the outcome. I would often tell people, “If you want to vote for Trump, vote for Trump. You will be voting for the winner.” The voting thing for me was not much of an issue because Trump’s win was predestined.

In the quotation above, readers are able to argue that Christabel seems to be compassionate human being, a natural one, mainly because she is yet to meet her lover, the person whom she is naturally worried about--a complete stranger.

In the recent presidential campaign, Trump has come into sharp criticism regarding his firm-held belief regarding some matters. The political ideologies that Trump has been propagating through his campaigns have been questioned regarding his moral reasoning and arguments. Trump’s political career began in the year ending 2012 when he then announced his intention to run for office. However, the political statements he makes have come into sharp focus regarding his leadership style and political beliefs.
