… A majority of Protestant voters, the largest religious group in the United States, align with Republicans. And there are signs of weakening Democratic support among other religious groups, including Hispanic Catholics.

I’ll whisper something to the wind, see where it goes. You never know. Chicanery rife, fury rampant, decency starved, rhetoric is what there is. I’ll go further, won’t I? See if I don’t. Maybe it’s all there is.
FROM WHOSE PULPIT?
whencesoever:
stricture of prophet
command of anointed
preaching of messiah
insight of mystic
tenet of saint
by whomsoever:
chosen called appointed
prophesied beseeched denied
howsoever:
prayed proclaimed indoctrinated
thundered brayed evangelized
wheresoever:
spoken writ engraved
chiseled steepled carved
chanted hymned piped
resolved:
that life created
in the likeness of
Mighty all this all that
be worthily taken
by nought but
what did give it
is ever and always
by sundry and each
honored devoutly
in brazen breach.
