American evangelicals "women shouldn't be preaching as per I Corinthians"
Trump hires women preacher
Cognitive dissonance insues
For the most part, I don't think it does because it's not like she's there to preach or prophecy. She's there to advise the president on grants and whatever interactions the government and "community organizations" may have. IOW, Her position in the government isn't a Church ministry- it's a government post; and there is no hard church doctrine against women in government posts.

Historically, the government has considered "community organizations" as having an overall positive impact on the population, and that giving them funding ultimately saved money on the back end (lowering crime, etc.). As a result, it was no-harm/no-foul. If it's working, don't try to fix it.

Her job/office identifies which churches/community organizations are most likely to compliment civil government. When an organization get people to behave/govern themselves; it is a more cost-effective society.

Unfortunately, not all "community organizations/churches" are effective, or even benevolent. If this office does a good job; then society does benefit. And as I showed earlier, if they do a bad job- we inadvertently fund adversaries.

not a good decision nor is it a good look for trump.
One who is a Christian might not have gone along with Trump's plan all the way? One who preaches prosperity might be enticed to go all the way for prosperity?

What is an example of a grifter?


Selling a bridge and starting a Ponzi scheme are things a grifter might do. The difference between a grifter and a thief is a grifter tricks you out of money through lies, while the thief takes it by force.

They are using taxpayer money to pay for a religious institution
This is a misconception.
Let me explain.
It is illegal to use taxpayer money to pay for abortions. Planned Parenthood gets around this by saying the more than a half billion dollars given to them on an annual basis goes for expenses and services not related to abortions. While we all see the hypocrisy in this, on the same basis a religious institution giving educational services can make the same case. That is to say, the money received from governmental sources only goes to the cost of providing an education, and not to other entities of the institution.

Well, it can't be denied that Paula and Donald both have one thing in common: They're both extraordinary grifters. They're kindred spirits in that respect.

Paula White gushes over "Mother Moon," cofounder of the Moonies cult.

I'm trying to find an OP for confirmation. I won't be surprised.
Ravi Zacharias was chosen to speak to the Mormons. She has too much baggage already IMHO without promoting a giant satanic cult like the Moonies.
