Yes, The Religious Right Warns Witchcraft Could Decide This Election

No, not The Onion.

http://www.politicususa.com/2016/10/29/yes-religious-warns-witchcraft-decide-election.html

Coming from people who believe in something called “spiritual warfare” – a nebulous spiritual struggle taking place over and above all the talk about issues and policy positions – it is perhaps no surprise that the Religious Right should declare that their messiah – Donald Trump – is being threatened with witchcraft.

Lance Wallnau, whose Twitter page claims to be “Your Spiritual Warfare Guide to the 2016 Election,” appeared on “The Jim Bakker Show” to push the crazy idea that “many Christians feel this fog on their head at times” and “that fog that’s on Christians is the collective witchcraft that comes over the Body of Christ because there’s spirits being authorized to be released.”...

Wallnau claims “The left is a smaller number of radicals better organized than the larger body of Christ who doesn’t work together,” and “That’s the dilemma that America’s in right now,” even though the left is a disparate alliance of various groups working together and the Religious Right has been organizing since Goldwater lost in ’64....

So if you disagree with Wallnau, if you oppose Trump, it can only because you’re manifesting the power of Satan (who in the Old Testament is God’s lieutenant, not his adversary). So pick your Testament, I suppose.


Nonsense. Hallowe'en/Samhain is over a week before the election. This is the very reason the Founding Fathers specified that Election Day would be the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.
