Religious freedom is not just for Catholics (HRC on changing religious beliefs)
American Thinker ^ | October 22, 2016 | William and Martha Dodd

Posted on 10/22/2016 5:18:12 AM PDT by NYer

This past summer, Hillary Clinton made this stunning and chilling statement in an interview on CNN: "deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs have to be changed."

She did not specify in that interview which faith's religious beliefs had "to be changed."

But now, thanks to WikiLeaks-released emails from the John Podesta's server, we have the context and intent of this statement.

Mrs. Clinton was specifically referring to the religious beliefs of the Catholic Church.  The Democratic Party is on record via Podesta exchanges that it would like to and is already working to sabotage the Catholic Church from within to help achieve the religious and cultural changes the party deems good for America.

In one email, Podesta assures a friend that he can "rest easy," for Podesta and his progressive pals have already created organizations explicitly designed to infiltrate the Catholic Church with progressive ideology, though Podesta cautions that the time may not be right for full revolution – just yet.  He continues: "We created Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good to organize for a moment like this. But I think it lacks the leadership to do so now. Likewise Catholics United.  Like most 'Spring' movements, I think this one will have to be bottom up." 

I do not recall, in the history of our country, knowing of any candidate for president or for any other major office whose party has been found to hold a bias against any faith or religion and is plotting ways to "infiltrate" and change its Church's beliefs and practices through "revolution" from within.  Discovering such an outrageously un-American plot should be a frightening awakening for us all.

In modern Western history, the only other national political party to challenge beliefs and practices of specific religious faith was the Deutsch Arbeiterpartei

For decades, many Catholics have believed that the Democratic Party is their friend and ally. And at one time it was so, but apparently things have changed. Now we know that not only is the Democratic Party no longer an ally of the Catholic Church, but the party leadership is working to be the Church's saboteur.

Catholic ping!

Where is Clinton’s plan to change Islam? How many secret reformers has she embedded in mosques? The answer is NONE, because she doesn’t want to be beheaded, having spent a fortune in replacing her face.

HRC may be the most potentially dangerous presidential candidate in our country’s history. I pray that we don’t have to find out for certain.

There is no “may be” in that statement. You need to replace “may be” with “is”

She intends to obliterate both the First and Second Amendments.

Why?

“Because I said so.”

She is the pettiest of petty would-be tyrants.

the Democratic Party no longer an ally of the Catholic Church,

Hasn't been an ally of the Catholic Church for nearly eighty years now, it was just capable of finding Judas goats like John Courtney Murry and Theodore Hesburgh who would keep the Catholic sheep calm and focused how wonderful it was to be where the fields were green and the livin' was easy.

Fulton Sheen saw what was going on and said the laity had to get busy straightening out the religious, especially Bishops and seminaries. Sorry, Bishop Sheen, the fields were green and the livin' was easy.

All of this just makes my faith stronger.

Funny thing is, if Trump win, it will help the Catholics a lot.

Our current pope’s ideas and ideology will seem backwards and dangerous when Trump shows what a Good Christian and Capitalist nation can achieve.

Anyone who claims to be Catholic can NOT vote for a pro abortion candidate. We know our faith.

It is sad that the non Catholic candidate is the one standing strong and courageous in the defense of the unborn. Voting for Hillary Clinton is a vote that promotes the evil of abortion. Those who claim to be Catholics directly violate one of our strongest beliefs if they vote for her. We will all be held accountable for our actions one day.

Hopefully, Trump’s crack about Hillary “pretending not to hate Catholics” will stir the consciences, or at least the curiosity, of American Catholics, clergy and laity alike.

Hillary’s preferred deity has horns, the head of a bull, and promises quick wealth in exchange for child sacrifice.
