Christian Theology Professors Issue Statement on Trump’s Election

Praying and working for justice and mercy

I would be very happy to become a signatory to this excellent statement. Much in the Trump administration will have to be not only opposed but also resisted by people of good conscience, particularly the church as "the conscience of the state." We therefore need solidarity, lest we as individuals or groups be picked off one by one. Tom F. Driver The Paul J. Tillich Professor of Theology and Culture Emeritus Union Theological Seminary

Thank you, SMU.

I fear for God's people and God's creation with President Trump. He does not seem to value either.

Thank you for your affirmations of justice, compassion, and fact-based evidence.

I thought we had regressed to 1558 - John Knox's polemic against women in power "The First Blast if the Trumpet Against The Monstrous Regiment of Women." But history has an affect, even on Christians. As we add troubles to our world, we also lay some to rest. The Kingdom is not here yet but it remains very near to us.

I support this position whole-heartedly.

Terrified of what Pres Elect Trump could do to us. Beyond my imagination.

I am horrified at the suggestion that any U. S. Citizens should be forced to register because of their religion.

Daughter of the late Robert C Broome, who started "The Baptist Peacemaker" publication years ago. He would be so extremely proud of this; THANK YOU.

This is what Christianity is, not the hypocrisy practiced by those who condemn others in God's name!!

Thank you for articulating with strength and in the form of positive affirmations a faith-filled standing place and springboard forward.

"With liberty and justice for ALL...." 'All' means 'ALL'!

Thank you and God bless!
