During a recent prayer session in support of Black Lives Matter, the pastor of St. Xavier Catholic Church in New York City instructed white congregants that they must renounce their white privilege to help "transform the church culture." Using the noble cause of racial equality as a fig leaf, Black Lives Matter is in fact a violent political organization whose Marxist ideology is anti-Christian — and anti-American — in the most profound meaning of those terms. In many churches across America, cultural Marxists in the pulpit are quietly supplanting traditional Christian values with those of the hammer and sickle.
"Cultural Marxism" is the gradual process of grinding down Western democracies by subverting the pillars of their culture, the structures and institutions of family, religion, education, politics, law, the arts, and the media as they provide the social cohesion necessary to a functioning society. Challenge the legitimacy of these institutions, and a capitalist society can be overthrown from within without firing a shot. Known as the father of cultural Marxism, 20th-century Italian communist Antonio Gramsci summarized his stratagem for dismantling Christian nations thusly:
Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity. Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.
Gramsci referred to his stratagem as "the long march through the institutions," infiltrating a society's cultural institutions and gradually supplanting their traditional values and principles with communism. Operating via stealth and deception, Gramsci's disciples in this country have diligently labored to grind down every cultural institution in America, including its predominant religion, Christianity.

Am I glad I live in Middle Tennessee.
renounce their white privilege
= = =
1+1=2. Still does, always will.
There I said it.
Darned White privilege overpowered me.
Money taken by governments from people’s earnings is NOT “charity” and “whatever is left belongs to the poor among us” and so on.
Big part of the virtue signaling by religious leaders.
Welfare and entitlements are not “charity” given freely from the giver. They are grabbed and taken away. Try not giving. You’ll have it confiscated as when Joan Baez fought in the courts for years to stop her taxes going to the wars’ budgets. They took it with interest anyway.
We might be glad where we are living at this moment, but when Marxism sneaks in and overwhelms the Church, government or society, the entire nation will fall and nowhere will be “ safe” from persecution. Our Nation needs to turn to God quickly,...destruction arrives very swiftly and unannounced to nations that turn to their own understanding...especially to nations that embraced communism....do remember Biblical history, “ even the righteous suffered” when nations ran from God.
Yes, all will suffer. Even the righteous. It is today as it was in the Garden. Today the venal whispers lead us into the church to celebrate gay weddings. Silence is sin. So-called people of the Book must speak or it is they whom have committed the greater sin.
The Vatican has converted to Marxism in pursuit of heaven on earth, to the exclusion of God Almighty and the cancellation of Jesus Christ. It is now a mortal sin to throw an empty Pepsi bottle on the ground but it is virtuous to slice a baby’s head open and rip its brains out.
“Using the noble cause of racial equality”
It’s not a noble cause, it’s denying reality.
That statement is the fundamental cause of all our race problems.
Races on the average are not equal. As long as all our actions and policies are based on that false assumption we are in for a world of hurt.
The humane solution is separation of the races, so that each side has control of its own destiny.

Well I’ll take the attack and grind cultural Marxism down how bou’ dat
Jesus is Lord still, no matter how the Marxist useful idiots may scream against it.
They can try their ‘critical race theory’ on God personally if they want, but I think they’ll find that He won’t be receptive.
It’s weird. When I’m watching a movie or a TV program, as soon as I see a character say or portray in some way that he’s a Christian, I know that he’ll turn out to be the villain.
Weird, right?
