‘Mrs. Greene's statement about leaving the Church is as enlightening as it is saddening,’ commented Michael Hichborn, president of the Lepanto Institute.
(LifeSiteNews) – Following criticism of comments she made about the U.S. Catholic bishops, conservative firebrand U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene revealed that she was raised Catholic but left the Church “with great sorrow” when she had kids because she had concerns about the left-wing hierarchy protecting abusive priests.
“With great sorrow, and unwavering faith in Jesus Christ, I stopped attending Catholic Mass when I became a mother, because I realized that I could not trust the Church’s leadership to protect my children from pedophiles, and that they harbored monsters even in their own ranks,” the now-evangelical said in a lengthy statement.
The Georgia Republican was responding to the Catholic League’s Bill Donahue, who slammed her for suggesting in an interview with Church Militant’s Michael Voris that “Satan is controlling the Church.”
“The Church is not doing its job. And it’s not adhering to the teachings of Christ,” she added.
“It’s the Church leadership I was referring to when I invoked the Devil,” Greene clarified on Twitter. “Just so we’re clear, bishops, when I said ‘controlled by Satan,’ I wasn’t talking about the Catholic Church. I was talking about you.”
“The Catholic Church must throw out these monsters instead of lecturing the people its own bishops have driven away,” she continued, blasting the U.S. Catholic bishops as “some of the worst in the world” and “scheming bureaucrats in miters.” It was the “bishops’ wickedness” that drove her out of the Church, Greene said, and her own refusal to “submit the spiritual and physical livelihood of my children to these monsters.”
Greene, who is sometimes referred to as “MTG” (à la “AOC”), went on to say what many faithful Catholics who.......

By the way, Martin Luther, like you, has lead Catholics away from the One, True, Faith, outside of which there is no salvation.
And you’re proud about that?
And you’re proud about that?
Absolutely, totally proud of it. That make 4 this year. Praise God for that. You see, I believe the Catholic Church is a false religion, leading millions to hell. I don’t want people to go to hell 🔥 so I try to lead them out.
Another thing dude. It was my opinion, that you were uneducated. Every piece of information I gave you, on aviation, was deliberately false. I wanted to see if you could figure it out. You couldn’t, naturally. I might not see you at the OSAS, pre trib rapture, but if not, that’s on you. 😀🤗🤭😆👍😂🥖👼🤔😃😃🤔
Away from the one pagan church to the One True Savior!
Great trade!!
👊🏼🥳😎
Bahahah, caught him in another one of his falsehoods, eh?
Now, it’s 10:30 AM, in this south sea island paradise. I will leave you to your own devices, while I go lead more Catholics out. 😀🤔👼😃🤭🥹😊👍😂🤗😆
The Lord be with you, Mark. He is using you and that’s waht counts in these last days! See you in the cvlouds, Bro, the pre-tribulation rapture clouds.
Roger that bro. See you in the pre trib, OSAS rapture. I hope those left behind, won’t believe the lies about our sudden departures.
That’s right because salvation is by Jesus, not through a religion.
Acts 4:12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
Yup, it does take time for one to overcome Catholic teachings.
One that took a while for me was the realization that the pope had no control over me and no say about anything I did and that I didn’t have to submit myself to the pope’s dictates or decrees.
Of course, these days, even Catholics are now claiming that being in rebellion against the duly elected head of their church. Back when I got saved, some decades ago, no good Catholic would have dared sit in judgment of the pope. Not if they valued their eternal destiny. But now with each man being his own pope, they think nothing of sitting in judgment of him as judge, jury, and executioner.
Still no repentance for violating Catholic doctrine I see. Still no apology for sitting in judgement of my soul against Catholic teaching.
It’s sad you hate me so much that—according to your own beliefs—you’ll send yourself to eternal damnation just to spite me.
Well, I tried. My conscience is clear.
Better not partake in the Eucharist with this on your soul or you’ll make things even worse on yourself.
HOORAY!
My grandson is finally back home from Poland!
One thing that IS true: he is DEFINITELY a PROTESTANT!!!
He's constantly nailing things to FR's front door!
Then I am doomed, for I have been sexually immoral and I have lied.
You know flu season is over at GC?
When you can see the salad thru the glass again.
Thanks for letting me FINALLY realize what PTR means!!
DRAT!
I missed it, due to avoiding this food fight going on here.
So you got Beast and a Half!
There’s unbelief and there is also wrong belief.
Now confess that to God with a heart full of contrition and then go and sin no more. You'll be okay.
