Biden Appointee Has Secular Vision of Faith-Based Programs
California Catholic Daily ^ | 2/17/21

Melissa Rogers will be director of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, and senior director for faith and public policy

Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on President Biden’s faith-based programs:

President Biden’s decision to appoint Melissa Rogers to head the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships is telling. She will also serve as senior director for faith and public policy in the White House Domestic Policy Council. He could not have chosen a more seasoned secularist to steer these faith-based entities.

Rogers may be a Baptist, but it is her secular vision of faith-based programs that will direct her decision-making. This not a matter of speculation. This is her second appointment as director of faith-based programs: Obama chose her to head this initiative in his second term. So we know what we are getting.

When Rogers worked in the Obama White House, her idea of reaching out to faith communities was to invite the Secular Coalition of America to the White House. She welcomed the professional atheists in the name of religious pluralism. As I previously said, this was “akin to welcoming racists in the name of racial harmony.”

Rogers sides with the homosexual agenda against people of faith. Would Rogers would ban Orthodox Jews from exclusively hiring their own to run their day-care centers? Yes she would. Would she oppose Catholic foster-care programs from following Catholic teachings when deciding whom to place children with in adoptive settings? Yes she would.

True faith communities should walk away.

Have nothing to do with this special evil.
