1. nobody reads the Bible more than Donald Trump

...or so he said a little while back.

Trump is going to fling all sorts of crazy shit at Hillary, but I have a feeling that the religion angle just isn't going to work.

It's rather grating to me too to hear all the talk about "faith." I have no problem with people expressing a feeling that there is something out there larger than themselves, but to profess fealty to imaginary beings is counterproductive and embarrassing. The deference paid to those imaginary beings is astonishing.
