Talarico is a heretic person as he twists the Bible saying he's a preacher. False preachers are warned about in the Bible.

Religion doesn't move the needle for me, since no religion on the planet can be proved. Heretic? Pfft. Whatever. Paxton is an irrefutable and unashamed corruption machine.

---

the political cult of evangelism doesn't tolerate Christians who aren't republicans. calling talarico a heretic is an immune response that's more political than religious.

---

What we don't tolerate are those who claim to be Christian while endorsing the wholesale slaughter of human beings in the womb OR those who embrace sexual deviancy and redefining the Biblical definition of marriage. You can NOT be a Christian and endorse any of the above. To do so invalidates any claims to Christian faith.

---

this is what i'm talking about. this is a political argument wearing the thin veneer of a religious one. it's reductive and dogmatic to collapse Christianity to a purity test on abortion and LGBT issues. calling talarico a heretic is nothing more than political virtue signaling for evangelicals.

---

Purity test? He cant even get in the door to take the test, he's a fake.

Abortion and LGBT issues are part of it, but to me the really egregious part is him saying there is more than one path to heaven or that other religions have the same message, just packaged differently. The Bible is exclusive. The message of Christ is welcoming to all, but there is only one way.

"Jesus answered, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." - John 14:6

Talarico is preaching the opposite. He is a heretic. The creator of the universe tells us the path. Not some charlatan running for political office.

Edit- meant to reply to Old M.

You can criticize Christians against baby killing and child mutilation and praise reverend Talarcco's holiness all you want. How about you defend open borders & mass migration, the disease evil whiteys are spreading, defunding police, climate alarmism, lying about supporting republican tax cuts, everything else this guy panders on about?

New Fox Poll.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.foxnews.com/politics/fox-news-poll-gop-divisions-shape-texas-senate-race.amp

You can't blame a this on a liberal leaning poll. Paxton better get to work or we will be stuck with a socialist freak.

---

Fox Polls have been garbage forever, and always make the Democrat look better. And there is no way Abbott is only up by 1 point on someone who few even know exists.

Truly, they'd love for the Democrats to sweep everything in November so they can then go back to their preferred position, that of the "loyal opposition".

---

This is the correct answer to why Fox polls are crap. Polls are for raising money "See, I'm within a point of Abbott. Send me more money". This race is going to be a blow out.

As for Paxton, he needs to mend fences with the rinos (Cornyn primarily) because they are butt hurt at the moment (as we see here). He has at least started campaigning in various cities.

Fake Christian just keeps faking

Someone needs to ask this howdy doody looking con artist "what is the point of even believing in Christ"? "What is the point of Christ to begin with"?

I've been begging for someone to ask him that. His head would explode. I sincerely do not believe he would be able to answer it without twisting himself in nots, because, ultimately the goal with just about every statement he ever utters is to just spit out a bunch of generic feel-good BS to appeal to the dumb useful idiot brigade. Absolutely terrified of ever offending a brown person, LGBTQ zealot, or people of other religions.

Everything I have seen him say minimizes Christ and his relevance. It's almost the worst form of blasphemy I can think of tbh. The Bible warns that false teachers and imposters like this will be held accountable more harshly than the average human.

This is why they know Texas is red. No need to campaign in swanky, liberal Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard if you're getting money from here. You know, from the actual people who the senator would represent. And I should add those islands are basically composed of all white populations, except for the servant class.

It's not risky to hitck his wagon to Trump in this state. He won by double digits in 2024. Wasn't it like 14%.

No it's not. As a Christian I can't vote for a heretic false preacher. Whether I'm political or not!

This Spain invasion is giving Paxton's team yet more campaign ad fodder. Show any of the videos of the invasion by these military aged males destroying homes and looting stores and then cut to Talarico's interview where he said that our southern border should have a welcome mat out front.

Trump's PAC finally coming to the rescue of Paxton. I will add that Paxton likely would have defeated Cornyn with or without the endorsement. But nice of Trump's people to give Paxton some money (not $400 mil, I believe that's how much MAGA Inc has for all campaigns).

But you referring to any Christian right of center as "cult of evangelicalism" isn't political virtue signaling? Of course it is, and you know it is...you're just upset that people don't like your candidate of choice.

At least Talarico critics have presented actual evidence in this thread of him talking about his religious beliefs that do not align with basic Christian doctrine.

You on the other hand have done nothing but shout insults at anyone that dare question him while echoing the same platitudes about Paxton and Trump being bad.

Yet you act like you're some kind of morally superior authority on this thread, when you're the exact opposite.

He is campaigning.

And he's stopped with the stupid name calling and will focus on his policies and positions. GOOD

Two years is enough to flip or turn away a bunch of Trump voters? What do you think they are thinking? "Hey the news says tariffs are bad. Let's try communism instead!" Or is it, "hey the news says the deportations I voted for are bad. Let's vote for open borders guy this time!"

He's right, ya know?

For six months in the runup to the 2024 election I said Trump would win and it wouldn't be close. On election night in NYC I was the only person who said we'd call it before midnight.

GOPers liked what I was saying then. I wish they'd listen when I'm warning things are dire now. https://t.co/MryrAMebwZ

saying it's close is less ridiculous at this stage than saying it's a blowout paxton win. polls and prediction markets have the race even, slightly tilted paxton's way. the congressional generic ballot was R+3 in 2024; as it stands it's looking like it'll be in the neighborhood of D+5-7 this cycle.

i'm on record stating i believe paxton wins, albeit closer than the allred and hegar races. haven't seen anything to change my mind on that yet.

Checks date… notes election is not today.

Dismisses poll saying "if election was today…".

T-Free-ko has spent $3 million on advertising. Man***** Paxton has spent $29k. Poll probablys asks "over the past two weeks, based on what you have seem from T or P, if the elections were held today, who do yoi think would win?"

that would have been virtue signaling had i done that, but i did not. evangelicals don't even comprise a majority of right-of-center Christians.

accusations of talarico's pluralistic views being heretical i understand. on the other counts, it's mostly just hyperbole and evangelical dogma which is hard to take seriously.

Yes. It is quite simple to condemn Democrats that believe it's the states right to force abortion on minors and genitally mutilate children.

But continue to judge Christians you don't know or understand.
