Here a hint folks.
This privilege stuff? It's a cargo cult.

During WWII primitive islanders were exposed to Westerners who were, by their standards, rich beyond their comprehension. They called this stuff “Cargo.” When the Westerners left, so did the cargo. They made also sorts of strange representations of modern equipment in an attempt to summon the cargo back. They got pretty disillusioned when it didn't come. The folks had no idea what it took to make and ship ‘cargo’ around the - they thought it just happened.

Which brings us to the current era. We have raised a bunch of ignorant ungrateful savages who have no idea what effort goes into producing this ‘privilege’ they talk about. They just know that that want it, and they want it right now. To aggravate things, these savages vote and politicians will pander to them. They don't understand the effort that goes into building families, sticking together, raising children, delaying gratification, sacrifice, etc. They think it just ‘happens’ and that they can demand a share of it, rather than cultivating through the generations.

There needs to be severe consequences for anyone who preaches this cult of privilege. While a cargo cult in Melanesia might be quaint, here in civilization is it catastrophic. "Privilege" isn't something that can be distributed. It earned across generations. It is hard to cultivate and easy to lose.

Christianity is an Individual religion.

Every single individual is judged as sinner or saved on Judgment Day.

You cannot be condemned or saved as a race or part of any group.

I volunteer at our local Republican headquarters. The woman who runs it told me through tears last week that she’s leaving her church of 47 years because it has gotten too liberal.

White privilege is a myth.

We’re not the ones being granted special exceptions and opportunities based on the color of our skin. We aren’t being hired or admitted to college based on anything but merit.

The parishioners need to light up their (arch-)diocesan offices with complaints.

This is 100% contrary to Catholic belief.

The Vatican has converted to Marxism. It is now a mortal sin to drop an empty Pepsi bottle on the floor but it is virtuous to cut a baby’s head open and rip its brains out.

Headline is fake news.

He did not say:

“Will You Worship at the Altar of Racial Justice?”

The church has its share of bad apples . It would be no surprise if Antifa has gotten into the minds of some of these priest. Too bad someone in the audience didn’t stand up challenged him and walked out. My guess is it is probably a predominantly black church.

I think it’s time to reassess the church’s tax status.
