Archbishop Viganò: Open Letter to American Catholics
complicitclergy ^ | 10-22-24 | Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

Posted on 10/24/2024 1:59:21 PM PDT by dynachrome

Dear Faithful American Catholics,

I am addressing all of you, a few days before the Presidential Election that will call millions of American citizens to the polls.

Even in conditions of relative normality, the exercise of the vote is your moral duty, through which you cooperate in the first person in choosing the person who will lead the Nation for the next four years. – you are not simply called to choose between two candidates who happen to be on different political sides but who both nevertheless have the common good at heart in compliance with the Constitution and the Law. No; in this election you must choose between two radically opposed ways of conceiving the government of your Nation: you are called to choose between democracy and dictatorship, between freedom and slavery.

On one side we have candidate Donald J. Trump, who, despite serious problems in his positions – especially in the matter of abortion and assisted procreation – has as his objective the common good and the protection of the fundamental freedoms of citizens. In Donald Trump’s America, every Catholic can practice their Faith and educate their children in it without interference from the State.

On the other side we have a candidate and a party that promotes everything that directly opposes the Faith and Morals of the Catholic Church. In Kamala Harris’ America, Catholics – but also Protestants – are considered fundamentalists to be marginalized and eliminated, and their children are considered the property of the State, which arrogates to itself the right to lead them astray from an early age in both body and soul. Trump’s America can become great and prosperous again. Harris’ America is destined for invasion and for moral, social, and economic destruction: the most ferocious dictatorship.

“I repeat: the choice is between a conservative President, who is paying with his very life for his fight against the deep state, and an infernal monster who obeys Satan. For a Catholic, there can be no question: voting for Kamala Harris is morally inadmissible and constitutes a very grave sin. Nor is it morally possible to abstain, because in this war declaring oneself neutral means allying oneself with the enemy.”

Long yes, and though I am not Catholic so some points I don’t align with, but he speaks of what most priests and pastors have neglected to even make passing mention of to their congregations.

Unfortunately, he is preaching to the choir: already conservative Catholics. Few others will even see his letter.

Too many Catholics are poorly educated in their faith and have embraced the secular social justice as the core of what they believe. That is why you can find “Catholics” advocating all sorts of evil positions.

The tares have grown up amidst the wheat... I guess the harvest may come soon.

But a great letter. And I am not Catholic.

The priests are for the most part Rats.

They pay lip service to being against abortion and other conservative positions, but their real religion is Democrat Communism.

The Catholic Church was infiltrated in the progressive era and was overwhelmed with communists at the time of Vatican 2 and onward.

They are pushing as hard as they possibly can to overthrow the USA with invading Third World CINOs who have the shrines to Mary and the hypocritical religious practices, but they break laws wholesale, they sell drugs, traffic in people and substances, kill, and pop out illegitimate kids by the truckload, which they then abandon.

The Catholic priests have presided over this invasion of the USA and are responsible, via their advice to their flocks over the years, and their NGOs.

Their hatred of conservative Catholics is palpable, most recently manifested in the banning of the Latin Mass in every way they can.

They want a one-world, UN type government where wealthy people are milked for their money so it may be given to the immoral hordes in Central and South America and Africa.

Of course they guilt-trip white Americans and Europeans for the feral and immoral behavior that makes up almost all people in the Third World.

I'm sick to death of it.

Agree... one of the biggest NGO's assisting the invasion by illegals is Catholic Charities.

My pastor, and many if not most of the churches in my town (Yuma, Arizona) are preaching a series of sermons called Kingdom Voting.

Not quite as explicit as Cardinal Vigano, they nontheless preach voting against evil, against the agenda of the left. It is a powerful message.

They preach it is our duty to vote.

Maybe his future title will be Pope Vigano.
