Chicago Catholic Church Hosts Talk by Louis Farrakhan
The Deacon's Bench ^ | 05-10-2019 | Deacon Greg Kandra

From CNN:

One week after Facebook banned Minister Louis Farrakhan and others for promoting “violence and hate,” the Nation of Islam leader insists that he is not a hateful person.

Farrakhan told those at Saint Sabina Catholic Church in Chicago on Thursday that he is “a hated man today.”

“Saturday, God willing, I’ll be 86 years old. I have never been arrested, no drunken driving,” he said. “What have I done that you would hate me like that?”

Pointing to his mouth, Farrakhan said: “It’s this that they fear. I don’t have no army. I just know the truth. And I’m here to separate the good Jews from the Satanic Jews.”

The Nation of Islam billed Farrakhan’s speech as a response to the “public outrage over the unprecedented and unwarranted lifetime ban.” The church’s invitation to Farrakhan drew sharp rebuke from the Illinois Holocaust Museum. The organization criticized the church, saying the speech would provide a “platform for bigotry.”

Facebook owns Instagram and its ban applies to both social media platforms.

Saint Sabina live-streamed Farrakhan’s speech on its website and Facebook page, despite the ban on the controversial leader.

FALSANI:
Do you have people in your life that you look to for guidance?

OBAMA:
Well, my pastor [Jeremiah Wright] is certainly someone who I have an enormous amount of respect for.

I have a number of friends who are ministers. Reverend Meeks is a close friend and colleague of mine in the state Senate. Father Michael Pfleger is a dear friend, and somebody I interact with closely.

So the Catholic church is hosting false prophets now? It must be near the end times.

If they can call the Republicans the Stupid Party, they can call the Catholics the Stupid Church. OOps, sorry, that’s already been taken by the Episcopalians.

Between Pfleger and Cupich, Chicago catholics are in for some tough times.

He don't have no grammar either.

The tough times are already here. By the time Blazer Cupich is finished, there won’t be a Catholic Church in Chicago.
