I find it ironic and kind of embarrassing that religious people come to the aid of corrupt politicians and defend them 'til their last breath. What do you even use religion for? To justify your selective belief? Even to the point of using Bible verses to justify a corrupt politician's actions.
Since y'all have been selective in attempting to justify the means by your Ayuda Politicians, here are some Bible verses to make you reflect on your choices.
Exodus 20:16
"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor"
Proverbs 19:5
"A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape"
Proverbs 6:16-19
16 "These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto Him"
17 "A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood"
18 "An heart that diviseth wicked imaginations, fell that be swift in running to mischief"
19 "A false witness that speaketh lies, and that he soweth discord among brethren"
(God specifically hates those who are deceitful and divisive, especially when the means are to harm others through lies)
Ephesians 4:25
"Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another"
Proverbs 17:23
"A wicked man taketh a gift out of a bosom to pervert the ways of judgment"
(Bribery corrupting justice)
Micah 3:11
"The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money"
(Condemnation of the use of money for corrupt influences)
James 4:1-2
1 "From whence come wars, and fightings amongs you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?"
2 "Ye lust, and have not: ye kill and desire to have, and cannot obtain, ye fight and war, and yet ye have not, because ye ask not"
(Selfish ambition leads to desire and conflict amongst one another)
Ecclesiastes 7:7
"Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart."
(A good person's heart can be corrupted by bribery)
The Bible Verses: Exodus 20:16, Proverbs 19:5, Proverbs 6:16-19, and Ephesians 4:25 all point towards condemning those who lie against another while Proverbs 17:23, Micah 3:11, James 4:1-2, and Ecclesiastes 7:7 all point to the use of money by means of bribery to corrupt the hearts and minds of people.
I'm not the religious one, and yet I still know these and other verses of the Bible is what's keeping my moral compass solid. If religious people love quoting the Bible so much, why are they using it to justify the actions of the corrupt politicians in the first place when Bible verses such as the ones mentioned above exist? Or do they just try and be selective so that it wouldn't hurt their ego of being a Christian/Catholic?
I'm merely stating a fact, and not an attack towards Christian/Catholics. Stop using your religion to justify immoral actions, especially during the campaign period.
