Chicago Cardinal Blesses DNC Without Mentioning Jesus
Breitbart ^ | 08/21/2024 | Thomas D Williams PHD

Posted on 08/21/2024 7:17:05 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Cardinal Blase Cupich, the progressive Catholic Archbishop of Chicago, offered the invocation for the Democratic National Convention (DNC) Monday without ever mentioning Jesus Christ.

Calling him simply the “God of all creation,” Cardinal Cupich invoked the divinity without witnessing to Jesus or calling out the moral evil around him.

I lived there when the HOLY Cardinal Francis George was alive!! He was a WONDERFUL CONSERVATIVE CATHOLIC MAN!! He’s probably turning over in his grave at this HERETIC!

He should not be there at all.

Separation of church and state. Right?

Did they mention Jesus at the Republican convention?

For decades now, most public prayers avoided mentioning Jesus, partially because it would offend Jews.

Yes, it would also offend Muslims. But public prayers have been nondenominational long before Muslims were a factor.

Can’t imagine any devout Catholic who would find Cupich or the Democrats inspiring.

I have this fantasy that on Thursday, God will vaporize every person in the DNC venue. Just ... POOF!

Much of the Church is a New Age Paganistic Cult.

You folks are the problem with anything good, not just Catholic. You are the ones who cast aside and slander everyone who is not 100% to your standards.
You fail to bring anyone together into your perfect tiny, lonely world. Nothing helpful, nothing positive, nothing wholesome. Sad, sad, sad.
Evil doesn’t exclude anyone who isn’t up to their standards completely. They find common ground and work on the other.
You type amplify the differences and help evil...

”… offered the invocation for the Democratic National Convention (DNC) Monday without ever mentioning Jesus Christ.”

.

Did he mention Lucifer instead?

That would be more fitting for the DNC at the current time.

Jesus would not approve of the DNC, so the cardinal had to go with a nameless generic god. ;)

Remember when democrats waned to remove the word “God” from “In God We Trust”. Democrats are godless.

According to that article, Jews, Sikhs, and Christians all prayed on stage at the Republican convention. (There might have been other groups, unmentioned in the article.)

Yet the Forward is upset that the Christian pastor mentioned Jesus. The writer sees that as an ominous sign. Inappropriate for a "religiously diverse" nation.

Now here is the real convicting question. Did you and I include Jesus Christ during this past week in any conversation?

To qualify it, with a right heart.

I watched most of last night's orgy and I do not recall hearing my Savior's name from anyone.

I suppose that is a good thing though. In vain... and all that stuff applies.
