Both the Catholic bishops of the United States and the Vatican have now virtually endorsed the strategy of “disruption” being used across the nation to oppose the new administration of President Trump. Held in Modesto, California, the U.S. Regional World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM), was sponsored by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Vatican’s Department of Integral Human Development to address issues of “land, labor, and lodging,” as well as racism and immigration.
The 700 attendees applauded and cheered as Bishop Robert McElroy of San Diego told them, “President Trump was the candidate of disruption. . . . Well now, we must all become disrupters.” Bishop McElroy, along with Chicago Archbishop Cardinal Blaise Cupich, has emerged as a leading voice among “social justice” Catholics determined to rally the Catholic Church to reject President Trump’s leadership and policy agenda...
With President Trump already well on his way to keeping all of his pro-life promises, it’s shocking that the Catholic bishops would align themselves with such of strategy of disruption and with allies sworn to oppose the core of the Church’s moral teaching. Lay Catholics, and many clergy, across the nation are not merely shocked, but disheartened and beginning to wonder if a formal schism is in the making.

Nope.
They wouldn’t leave. They’d kick the guy out.
Either way, the bottom line is, he would no longer be preaching to you and your friends. 😀
Nonsense.
YOU are the one advocating greater power for government.
We don’t need GOVERNMENT to protect us from the dangerous power of churches.
But let the pastor of some conservative church preach that Planed Parenthood is killing babies and they should try to prevent government funding and the IRS will suddenly become stalwart promoters of the Johnson Amendment.
I was referring to the churches in CA.
There are very expensive churches in CA who are running up bills of 100k/month and bringing in 20k.
The only way out is to sell them or bring in more people.
If they sell them, they will NEVER be able to buy them back.
Thus the real reason the Catholic Church is pushing illegals.
Its all about money.
I still say the bishops’ fanaticism about No Borders is more deeply ideological than that. They are Marxist Globalists, and believe the U.S. deserves to be conquered.
