Pauley Perrette's Tweet On Trump And Jesus Speaks To Many People Of Faith

Actress Pauley Perrette played Abby on NCIS for more than 10 years before exiting the show earlier this year.

Many fans adored her as the quirky science-buff of the team, but many did not know that Perrette considers herself a devout Christian.


In a recent Twitter post, she appealed to the Christian nature in others while urging fans to vote against President Trump (or his party) in the midterm elections.

She wrote in her post:

"Where is Jesus when voting for someone who does the opposite of Jesus?"
"I'm serious."
"I'm a faith driven person. Jesus didn't make fun of people, say horribly mean things, spread hate about race, women, handicapped and pretty much any target that makes the hateful cheer."
"I'm happy with my vote, as a Christian, to listen to love and Jesus and vote against trump [sic] and his pals in any way. He is a mean, mean man. He's fooling you. Stop laughing with him. It's cruelty and it's wrong."


Her post also included the famous biblical quote:

"For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?" ~ Matthew 16:26

On Twitter, many responded with religious sentiments backing up Perrette.









But some of Perrette's Christian fans also spoke out against her.

They said Donald Trump was far from a paragon of virtue, but that he was better than the alternative:

Democrats.





It seems many Christians still feel divided by Donald Trump, a man who bears very little resemblance to the ideal Jesus sets for many in the Bible.

And yet has garnered the Evangelical Christian vote through his promises to take action against abortion and "political correctness."


This isn't the first time Perrette has expressed her faith on Twitter.

After a violent assault outside her home in 2015, she wrote about her belief in God and how prayer helped her through the ordeal.


One thing that gave her strength after she was attacked was returning to church.



Now, Perrette's words have moved many online to speak out against President Trump.





Time will tell how many Christians like Pauley choose to turn against the Republican party in the 2020 Presidential elections.

It seems some are disillusioned with what's been happening within the government, but others still believe Trump is what's best for the nation.

One thing is for sure, however: if President Trump is the man in charge, Perrette will be fighting to help the Democrats win.

When you were younger, your protected perspective on life and the world was probably significantly different compared to now.

Before life experience informed your decisions, younger you most likely had higher aspirations to achieve a specific goal or swore off doing something you found objectionable.

But here you are, as an adult, doing the exact opposite of what you had intended.

Finding love is something that nearly everyone hopes for at some point in their life.

For some, love practically finds them. They hardly need any time searching for the true love.

Others might have to work a little harder and be a little more patient. They never give up the hope that their one true love is out there, somewhere.

Then there are those for whom the search simply isn't worth it and have found themselves resigned to the fact that they may never find someone.

Whether or not that's how they want their life to be.

A resume is so much more than just a simple list of your work experience.

Indeed, your resume is the first step in getting your foot in the door to your dream job, highlighting not only your past experience but your skill set, as well as things about you that will make recruiters want to get to know you more.

On the flip side, sometimes there are things on your resume that will automatically send you to the reject pile.

Of course, this is bound to include common, careless mistakes such as spelling and grammar errors or missing vital information, such as a phone number or email.

However, no two hiring managers will have the same set of red flags they look for on a resume. This can make finding a format that will please everyone something of a fool's errand.

In a world that keeps moving forward, many things change. People who seemed heroic fall from grace, inventions that were once useful are forgotten, and basic human rights are either ignored or taken for granted.

One way we've seen this happen is by thinking about all the people and things that were once highly respected that are now basically seen as a joke.
