Has Donald J. Trump become a born-again Christian? That is the suggestion of James Dobson, one of Americas leading evangelicals, who said Mr. Trump had recently come to accept a relationship with Christ and was now a baby Christian.
Mr. Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family and one of the countrys most prominent social conservatives, gave his account at a meeting Mr. Trump had in New York on Tuesday with hundreds of evangelicals.
In an interview recorded at the event by a Pennsylvania pastor, Michael Anthony, Mr. Dobson said he knew the person who led Mr. Trump to Christ, though he did not name him.
I dont know when it was but it has not been long, Mr. Dobson says. I believe he really made a commitment, but hes a baby Christian.

and Dobson has had more practice at it than most.

And he smells worse I'm sure.

I mean, really. They've got a crappy hand to play. So they have to come up with something to deliver the votes needed to have influence.

with "baby Christians", or more accurately, malleable little boys. That's why he was "asked", many years ago, to leave California.

Christian to go with his baby hands. His hands will grow as his faith grows.

I am looking forward to Trumps first sermon maybe he will also include some faith healing! Can I get an Amen?
