Longtime Clinton confidante discussed infiltrating the Catholic Church with progressive ideology to foment revolution

A newly leaked email shows Hillary Clinton’s current campaign chairman John Podesta and a Left-wing activist casually discussing fomenting “revolution” in the Catholic Church.

“There needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic Church,” Sandy Newman, president and founder of the progressive nonprofit Voices for Progress, writes to Podesta in an email titled “opening for a Catholic Spring? just musing.”

“There needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic Church.”

The emails were leaked in the third round of releases of Podesta’s emails by WikiLeaks.

Newman, who is Jewish, admits he does not know much about the Catholic Church and isn’t volunteering personally to subvert Catholic teachings. “Even if the idea isn’t crazy, I don’t qualify to be involved and I have not thought at all about how one would ‘plant the seeds of the revolution,’ or who would plant them.”

In response, Podesta assures Newman to rest easy for he and his progressive pals have already created organizations explicitly designed to infiltrate the Catholic Church with progressive ideology, though he cautions that the time may not be right for full revolution — just yet...

Odd how the liberal elites never talk about changing Islamic customs like killing daughters who look at men cross-eyed or throwing gays off four story buildings.

Nope they don't interfere with Islam... just going after those evil Christians...

Slaughter!

Both branches, Pharisees and the Notzerim were slaughtered by the millions.

The Nicene creed was the first destructive salvo fired against Yeshua’s Notzerim.

It will feed the losers of Matthew 7:21-22 into the fires of Hell.

They already infiltrated the catholic church at the very top level. The infiltrator is called the pope.

So many American catholics are social justice warriors before they are for Christ

That is so true.

Either that or he is sure that a majority of the flock has changed to the point he believes they will win out. With this Pope, I think your point is a real possibility though.

Even worse, I fear he is probably correct regardless of what is the truth, and it will sweep through all Christian denominations.

James 1:27
Pure, unstained religion, according to God our Father, is to take care of orphans and widows when they suffer and to remain uncorrupted by this world.

So, editor, you think all Christians who hold to a Nicene Christology (Jesus is True God and True Man) are going to hell?

We all (not just Catholics) need to copy this off and discuss it with our pastors.

Yeshua as he revealed himself in his teachings here on Earth is the True God and True man.

Yeshua is Missiach, not the Sun god ‘christos,’ and his name is not a rabbinical curse.

Religion is what men practice to avoid Yeshua’s narrow way.

Religion is the devious translator’s word, not James’.

“There is video of Hillary claiming,long held religious beliefs will have to be changed.”

OK. Let’s start with the belief that Sharia law should be ‘above’ any other laws. Then let’s move on to some specifics, like the belief that killing an infidel is justified.

Regarding James 1:27, see for yourself the multiple Bible Gateway and the Bible Hub (LINK) translations using the word "religion".

Your opinion that it's not really "religion" is, in itself, unpersuasive. And you have presented no evidence.
