Devout Christian Mike Johnson shows up to hush money trial to defend a guy accused of cheating on his wife with a porn star
House Speaker Mike Johnson describes himself as a Christian before anything else. He has said his “faith informs everything I do.” He has told people curious about his views to “pick up a Bible.” His wife reportedly runs a counseling service whose operating agreement, which he himself notarized, states, “We believe and the Bible teaches that any form of sexual immorality, such as adultery…is sinful and offensive to God.” He has said he and his son use a software program called Covenant Eyes to ensure neither is looking at porn.
Given all this, you may think that Johnson would not be comfortable showing up to a criminal trial to defend a guy who allegedly had an affair with an adult film star (according to the adult film star anyway, though Trump denies it), paid her to stay quiet about the alleged affair, and then was accused of covering up said payment. But you would think wrong!
On Tuesday, Johnson attended Donald Trump’s hush money trial in Manhattan, where—prior to the proceedings getting underway—the congressional leader nodded approvingly at Trump from behind a metal barrier, like a groupie at his favorite band’s concert.
The Evangelicals have addressed this.
David had Bathsheba's husband killed; Noah was a drunk; Lot had sex with his daughters. All were holy men, chosen by the Almighty to perform great deeds for the faith.
Sometimes the Lord chooses broken vessels.
This isn't satire, it's how they explain it.

Apologetics is an amazing thing! You'll never guess how that one thing doesn't mean what you think it means, and I'm the sole authority to tell you why!
Yeah, self made man Obama who never looked at another woman after he married is a tool of Satan, and the guy who embodies all Seven Deadly Sins is the finest man alive.
Imagine the year is 2012. Many Christians are taking their views door to door, urging you to vote for the Christian candidate, Mr. Mormon Mitt Romney, and not the Muslim, professing Christian Barack Obama. One of them goes to church. The other got married in ceremonial underwear. But one is black and the other is white.
Someone said that they think the Mayans were right and the world did end in 2012. It's just sputtering along on momentum.
Lot was raped by his daughters in his sleep. And he was devastated and enraged when he found out.
wasn't he drunk as fuck ?! in his sleep is that even possible ?
Compared to everything else that happens in these stories?
Lot had a particular set of skills, being absolutely wasted in his sleep was one of them.
Oedipus blinded himself after he found out he'd slept with his mother.
That's devasted.
Muslims take the approach of denying these stories and holding prophets to be infallible
