Republican Congressional Representative for Texas Dan Crenshaw has come under fire for an exchange he had with a young woman whom he felt was questioning his Christian faith during a Q&A session at a recent Tea Party fundraiser.
In a video tweeted by political lobbyist Scott Parkinson, the young woman can be seen addressing Crenshaw from a microphone positioned among the audience seating area.
“My most important value in life is my faith in Jesus Christ, and I heard you talking earlier about your most important thing as well. He’s my King who came down to earth to die for me and the rest of the world’s sin,” she said. “I’ve seen you claim to be a Christian. You talk about God. But when you claim Jesus to be a ‘hero archetype,’ you not only lied about Jesus not being real but you lied about being a Christian.”
