The Patriot Post® · Trump's 'Faith'

Donald Trump seems woefully unfamiliar with Christianity. That inconvenient truth surfaced once again during his interview with Bill O'Reilly. The latter practically pleaded for Trump to show up for tonight’s debate, saying, “In your Christian faith, there is a very significant tenet. And that’s the tenet of forgiveness. And I think you should forgive not only journalists who come at you in ways you don’t like, but I think you should be the bigger man and say, ‘You know what? I didn’t like it. … But I’m not going to take any action against it.’ Don’t you think that’s the right thing to do?”

Trump replied, “It probably is. But it’s called an ‘eye for an eye’ I guess, also. You can look at it that way.” That’s a deflection — and exactly the opposite of the point Jesus was making and O'Reilly was referencing.
