CNN recently published a long but not very deep article about Trump's faith. You can read it here: edition.cnn.com/interactive/2017/politics/state/donald-trump-religion/It's clear that Trump's religious faith isn't quite as profound and subtle as his predecessor's. Of course, the Dawk was regardless happy to speculate that Obama was really an atheist. Somehow I doubt he'll be as eager to claim the Donald, however.  |

Lol!  (Especially the title!) No, the Dawk can laugh as the christians claim the Donald as one of theirs! |

Thank you. That was a really interesting and revealing article (not to mention lovely photos). I suppose there are good, well-thought out, rational reasons for not being a Christian or being agnostic or atheist. With some people maybe not being Christian or religious might be difficulty in conceiving of an entity greater than their own individual self/ego. Dawkins and Trump might get on quite well in person.

As a follow-up of sorts, here is an article exploring Trump's love affair with fatalism. Though it is speculative to pigeon-hole him as a committed fatalist, there's a clear fatalist mode to his rhetoric and, apparently, thought. |
