She wouldn't,  she has a sense of self preservation.

Nope, Christians have nothing to be worried about. No warning signs about blatant religious discrimination, Christians are just paranoid.

Quote
Feinstein was born Dianne Emiel Goldman[1] in San Francisco, to Betty (née Rosenburg), a former model, and Leon Goldman, a surgeon. Feinstein's paternal grandparents were Jewish immigrants from Poland. Her maternal grandparents, the Rosenburg family, were from Saint Petersburg, Russia.[6] While they were of German-Jewish ancestry,[7] they practiced the Russian Orthodox faith as was required for Jews residing in Saint Petersburg

So her Jewish ancestors were forced to live as Christians? It seems she learned the wrong lesson from that history.


Dick Durbin had some oddly specific questions for her, about an article she wrote 20 years ago.

"What is an "orthodox Catholic?"  ;/


And as mak sarcastically points out, this has become a trend for the Democrats:

Just ... wow!

Van Hollen said it’s “irrefutable” that comments like Vought’s suggest to many that he’s condemning all people who aren’t Christians. And he asserted that Vought’s view of his faith is wrong: “I’m a Christian, but part of being a Christian, in my view, is recognizing that there are lots of ways that people can pursue their God,” Van Hollen said.

That may be your view, Senator, but that's not what the Bible says. Since being a Christian is based in Holy Scripture and on acceptance of Christ Jesus as the Son of God and the way for all who accept Him as their savior to find God, what other ways are there for Christians to pursue their God?

Booker asked him if he believed homosexuality is a perversion, and if he really thinks it's bad for people to worship "other gods."  ;/

Made this exact connection when I heard it too.

Mr. Pompeo disappointed me. My IMMEDIATE response would have been, "Senator, I'll be happy to answer your question as asked, but I want to be clear about the question. Are you testing that I have the proper religious beliefs for this position?"

Some bright, handsome fellow has written a deep and thoughtful article on this very subject.
