I assume the President was looking for those two Corinthians during the Apostles Creed. [4]

@keithboykin The man wouldn’t know the Apostles Creed from Apollo Creed. [4]

I was not familiar with the words of the Apostles Creed and was curious what they were reading. [2]

Given Trump's widespread support among evangelical Christians, that led to plenty of criticism on social media: Hey @Franklin_Graham here's your “evangelical president” NOT reciting the Apostles' Creed at the funeral of your father's friend. [5]

MEDIA 12/06/2018 03:40 am ET Trump didn't recite the Apostles' Creed during the funeral for former President George H.W. Bush. [5]

Critics on Twitter are calling out President Trump for failing to recite the Apostles’ Creed at the funeral for former President George H.W. Bush on Wednesday. [6]

The man that Trump spent years calling a Kenyan born Muslim recited the Apostle's Creed and Lord's Prayer but Trump and his third, Slovenian born wife did not. [7]

Trump stood respectfully, while others recited the creed that they believe in. [8]

Trump professes to be a Presbyterian and the Apostles Creed is a basic element of both liberal and conservative Presbyterian denominations. [8]

I wonder what would happen if there was a Jewish person of notarity there, and didn't recite this Christian apostles creed? Would they condemn that person also. [8]

The man wouldn’t know the Apostles Creed from Apollo Creed. [7]

Trump didn't recite the Apostles' Creed during the funeral for former President George H.W. Bush. [9]

They would be horrified if Trump had read the Apostles' Creed along with everyone else. [10]

POSSIBLY USEFUL

When the congregants at the funeral of President Bush stood to read the creed, it did not go unnoticed when the one who has been hailed as the true savior of Christianity decided to sit this one out. [2]

I know Trump isn't saying it because he's an idiot, and that's sad, but I'm kinda used to “our president is a moron” by now. [11]

Footage from the event shows much of the church, including the former presidents seated with Trump, standing to recite the profession of faith. [4]

Along the row that featured the former presidents and their wives, along with our current president, Donald Trump and his wife, Melania, they all stood. [2]

Trump and first lady Melania Trump stood, but did not recite the prayer, which was written in the program, nor did they sing the hymns. [4]

We keep being told that Trump is a “baby Christian,” but even a baby Christian has enough grace to understand the power of the Apostles’ Creed, or why you don’t make somebody else’s funeral about yourself. [2]

Yeah, I don't really care about this subject entirely, I don't feel like Trump isn't upholding some “long held tradition” because frankly, it's a Christian religious tradition and politicians are supposed to be secular state agents. [11]

Realistically, Trump doesn't even pay lip service to religion, he should grow a pair and come out as irreligious. [11]

Trump (and Melania) could still have read from the written page. [2]

Trump has held special events for evangelical leaders at the White House, giving them all ample opportunity to praise him for “saving” Christianity. [2]

That display says a lot about who Trump is, but I’ve given up hope of ever hearing any of his evangelical devotees admit they were wrong about him. [2]

That's yet another way in which Trump is unfit for the presidency. [2]

It's not so much how Trump sat; it's the times that he crossed his arms beneath that scowl on his pudgy mien. [2]

Then there’s Donald Trump – thrice married, adulterous, profane, with multiple bankruptcies and kids that all look like extras from “American Psycho.” [2]

Even Richard Nixon who shared quite a few of Trump's personality traits, like pettiness and vindictiveness knew that much, rigidly controlling himself when in public and only lashing out in private. [2]

If Trump's exposure to church services has been in a similar circle, he truly may not be familiar with it. [2]

“I firmly believe Trump's “normal” face (that he wears to all meetings and thinks shows [2]

We created Storytelling Projects because we believe stories, rooted in the Jesus Story, have the power not only to inform but to transform people and communities. [3]

He wasn’t the focus of attention, and there were people there celebrating the life of a man who had done everything right. [2]

Some who are not Christian, live in a way that is absolutely anathema to the Christian faith, could easily recite this creed and it mean nothing. [2]

It is the oldest creed of the Christian church, and while not specifically written by the original 12 disciples of Christ, it is commonly used as a statement of the Christian faith. [2]

The mention of “catholic,” in the creed isn’t speaking of the Roman Catholic Church, but the universal, undivided body of Christians. [2]

No, it’s not the Sinner’s Prayer, but I dare say, if you don’t believe every word of that creed, it is inconceivable that you could say the Sinner’s Prayer and actually mean it in a way that proves to be life-changing or spiritually beneficial. [2]

Look at the Obamas and the Clintons; nobody can convince me that they believed a word of the Apostle's Creed they were reciting, but they did so because to not would have been conspicuously disrespectful and made them look bad. [2]

They all held the text of the Apostles’ Creed in their hands, and they all read it together. [2]

“This is your “Christian’ evangelical president,” Boykin wrote sarcastically in response to Trump’s actions. [2]

For the Christian, it can be recited with power and surety. [2]

You could make an argument he could have just recited it out of respect ( I still “pray” with my family at events even though i don;t really believe it out of respect for my grandmother.) [11]

All the presidents at the Bush funeral service together recited this core prayer. [8]

Hey @Franklin_Graham here’s your “evangelical president” NOT reciting the Apostles’ Creed at the funeral of your father’s friend. [7]

Video from the funeral of former President George H.W. Bush showed a front row of presidents at the Washington National Cathedral, standing and reciting it along with the program, as the voice of Episcopal Bishop Michael Curry boomed through the speakers to the thousands of mourners. [8]

We turned off the tv after President and Mrs. Trump came in to be seated. [12]

One thing is very obvious: their hate for President Trump pulls back the veil and reveals the faces of corrupt, career politicians in both parties. [12]

One veteran of Trump’s 2016 campaign who’s still advising Trump told me the president hasn’t been focused enough on 2020. [13]

President Donald Trump stood, with his hands folded in front of him, waist-high, the program in his left hand, his lips not moving. [8]

Trump and first lady Melania Trump stood, but did not recite the creed, which was written in the program, nor did they sing the hymns. [7]

Trump claims to be a Presbyterian and should be able to recite the Creed from memory. [8]

Mixed in within disgust was a small voice raising a controversial question: Maybe Trump doesn't believe the Creed, and therefore shouldn't say it? This was quickly answered by others noting that Trump says he is a Christian, often praises faith in God and characterizes himself as a friend of the faithful. [8]

Trump will say that he gets other people to say it for him. [8]

They think we're stupid enough to think swapping Nikki Haley and Mike Pence would somehow mitigate the dreadful scourge that is the Trump administration! No one will gaze at Trump the way Mike Pence does, and for sure Nikki Haley could not lie as skillfully. [13]

“They’re beginning to think about whether Mike Pence should be running again,” the source said, adding that the advisers presented Trump with new polling that shows Pence doesn’t expand Trump’s coalition. [13]

Here's a bonus: After Mike Pence has spent two full years gazing at Trump with loving eyes, Gabe Sherman is saying Trump may dump him for Nikki Haley. [13]

Last month, The New York Times reported that Trump had been privately asking advisers if Pence could be trusted, and that outside advisers have been pushing Nikki Haley to replace Pence. [13]

After playing some side by side clips of Pence lying without moving anything but his mouth and Trump waving his hands around and denying any contact with Russia ever, Meyers described it perfectly. [13]

A mong the topics discussed was whether Mike Pence should remain on the ticket, given the hurricane-force political headwinds Trump will face, as demonstrated by the midterms, a source briefed on the session told me. [13]

One can expect a purported Christian, Trump, to pay at least lip service to the. [8]

Trump spent much of the service scowling, with his arms crossed, not participating in the recitation of prayers or the singing of hymns. [1]

When Trump lies, he sweats like a fugitive being chased by a pack of police dogs.” [13]

Not surprising though that some who will find fault with everything trump does dont have a problem with trump treating religion like he does everything else. [8]

If Hillary had been anything other than the way she was, you would be posting that she was kissing up to Trump, so it is a no win no matter what. [12]

Don't try and pretend that the Trumps had a deep theological objection to reciting it. [12]

Got news for you, if I passed by Trump, I wouldn't look at that POS either. [12]

It’s SO weird that Barack Obama (the “Muslim”) knew all the words to the Apostles’ Creed, and Donald Trump (the Evangelical hero) didn’t know any of them, and didn’t even bother to read them. [7]

Seriously, do any of the many flavors of Christianity require this? How many denominations say you can't be a Christian unless you recite the Apostle's creed when you're at a funeral? I suspect the number is zero. [8]

Standing during the service out of respect is appropriate, but not kneeling, and reciting a creed, which as I understand it not all Christian denominations follow. [8]

That is an excellent point, and a Jewish person would not be reciting this creed either. [8]

Baptist do not recite any creed in worship services – most would not be able to recite the Apostle's Creed from memory. [8]

I don't believe that stuff either, and I'm not going to recite the creed. [8]

My point was that any Presbyterian or Catholic who had ever attended church regularly would have known the Apostle's Creed by heart. [12]

The Apostles' Creed is one of the prayers most core to Christianity. [8]

CORRECTION : This article previously referred to the Apostles’ Creed as a “prayer”; rather, it is a statement of belief. [7]

It strikes me as a little strange that neither the President nor First Lady made any attempt to recite it. [12]

Well of course n.well.Now that you mention it.Imagine if the past presidents had gone for that, and the resulting chaos as the secret service tried to break it up. [12]

I think we could look at other facets of tRump's behavior which are more demonstrable as to his hypocrisy and lack of Christian traits. [8]

We have known for years that Trump's Christian supporters have very low expectations when it comes to his behavior. [8]

Seth Meyers noticed something we've all observed: @hen Mike Pence isn't locked in an adoring gaze at Donald Trump, he's lying for him. [13]

That video is so very descriptive of what a low life, out of touch individual Donald Trump is. [12]

These other people are reading along to some mumbo jumbo looking like a bunch of idiots in my opinion and Trump is looking like a normal person – rather uncomfortable. [10]

How many chatterers have destroyed communion because of inappropriateness or lack of sensitivity! On the contrary, chatter kills, and this was said by the apostle James in his letter: the chattering, the loose-lipped are people who kill others, because the tongue kills like a knife. [14]

Plus, he and communist daughter are unable to act like normal people. [10]

That God may be more favourable to Our prayers, and that He may come with bounty and promptitude to the aid of His Church, We judge it of deep utility for the Christian people, continually to invoke with great piety and trust, together with the Virgin-Mother of God, her chaste Spouse, the Blessed Joseph; and We regard it as most certain that this will be most pleasing to the Virgin herself. [14]

The Lord severed the Jewish people from His kingdom, and heretics and schismatics are also severed from the kingdom of God and from the Church. [14]

Because as the people love the creatures of God so inordinately, more than the Creator, and use them only to His dishonor, He will destroy them in this terrible manner, arming all creatures for vengeance against His enemies (Wis. 5:824, and showing by the manner of their destruction the evils which will fall upon all sinners. [14]

Mine are the heavens and mine is the earth; mine are the people, the righteous are mine, and mine are the sinners; the angels are mine, and the Mother of God, and all things are mine; God Himself is mine and for me, because Christ is mine, and all for me. [14]

The first is the danger of not asking for any graces at all, so that if some people were asked their Rosary intention they would not know what to say. [14]

The second big fault a lot of people make when saying the Holy Rosary is to have no intention other than that of getting it over as quickly as possible! This is because so many of us look upon the Rosary as a burden which is always heavier when we have not said itespecially if it is weighing on our conscience because we have promised to say it regularly or have been told to say it as a penance more or less against our will. [14]

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — People can disagree about problems and the best ways to resolve them, but no one should launch a formal accusation against a pope much less ask for his resignation, German Cardinal Gerhard Muller said. [14]

“I am personally convinced that Pope Francis is doing everything possible to oppose the phenomenon of abuse against minors and to foster a new spirituality among priests who must act with the heart of Christ and do what is good for all people, above all for children and young people,” he said in a lengthy question-and-answer piece. [14]

I am a merciful mother to you and to all your people who love me and trust in me and invoke my help. [14]

These clerics are still operating and working hard to steal the faith from Catholics, just as the Tudor monarchs of the 16th century stole it from the English people. [14]

By manifesting this rejecting of the faith, the Jewish religious unit fell from its position as the company of the chosen people. [14]

Moved to the very depths of our hearts by the stirring appeal of the President of the United States, and by the action of our national Congress, we accept whole-heartedly and unreservedly the decree of that legislative authority proclaiming this country to be in a state of war. [14]

Inspired neither by hate nor fear, but by the holy sentiments of truest patriotic fervor and zeal, we stand ready, we and all the flock committed to our keeping, to cooperate in every way possible with our President and our national government, to the end that the great and holy cause of liberty may triumph and that our beloved country may emerge from this hour of test stronger and nobler than ever. [14]

Clooney, a human rights attorney, called out the president for encouraging violence against the media. [9]

A panel on MSNBC's “Deadline: White House” engaged in a bizarre bit of logic on Wednesday while covering the funeral of former President George H. W. Bush. [15]

BTW, Trump is high church Protestant, not Evangelical or Catholic. [10]

I don't have the religion receptor in my brain and it looks like Trump doesn't either. [10]

I get that most of the ecumenical world does not care about that and no idea what Trump believes exactly but I would not participate either. [10]
