‘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.......

“Do you know how much she wrote in her life?”
Not as much as you may think. You’ll need to deduct around 80% of whatever figure you come up with. She was a thief, also.
Do you forbid rape and adultery?
How about a pastor who has a box full of pictures of naked women (not his wife)?
Do you forbid that?
opinions vary.
I know you want to hide from the information posted and I don’t blame you, Phil. I would try the distraction game, too, were I in your shoes.
My hope is that you will come to realize you’ve been had and that you and your wife will be saved. I hope EGW was saved before she died. She and her family, for that matter.
I’m not going to go off and onto different trails in your attempts to run from the truth.
While looking for a dietary loophole,
what goes in the mouth comes out of the p******e (can’t say that on FR)
We’ll sing and we’ll shout,
To get the word out,
Or raise a flag high on the sloop pole.
Did you just figure that out, Sherlock? What does that have to do with anything?
Do you have any naked pictures of your wife?
🤣🤣🤣
——>I know you want to hide from the information posted...
I couldn’t care less. Please continue.
No.
Want to buy some?
Why would I need pictures?
Well, was she wrong or right regarding masturbation and diseases? You’re in the medical field so it shouldn’t be that hard for you to answer.
——>I hope EGW was saved before she died. She and her family, for that matter.
And Ravi?
What is your absolute obsession with him, Phil??? Is there something we all should know about? You’re on him constantly like white on rice. He wasn’t a “prophet” like your Miss Ellen claimed to be. You fail miserably in your understanding of how God’s church operates: we are all equal in the Body of Christ Jesus, Our Lord and Savior.
Whatever she wrote was probably “cutting edge” for the 1800’s. Look how far we have progressed? SDA’s are still one of the longest living groups of people in the world as a whole. I believe that many enjoy a piece of carrot care now and then.
So, you’re saying it’s true?
“SDA’s are still one of the longest living groups of people in the world as a whole.”
Not sure why or how that matters given the question at hand, but okay. Since you all abstain from alcohol, meats, sweets, and feather beds, it would make sense.
You are in the Religion of Diet by a lying “prophetess.” That has nothing to do with God. I hope you get saved, Phil. Sincerely.
You believe God actually gave her those visions regarding masturbation?

OSAS Golden Boy. Wow, what a life he led. Pastor Ravi Zacharias, leader of the then largest Christian group on the planet. And, no matter how many women he abused, raped, or groped, he’s still going to heaven. Isn’t OSAS great? There is no sin. And if there is, there’s no responsibility. One of the greatest lies ever told. Ravi seemed to have believed it.
A kind word never broke anyone’s mouth
Oft times a man’s mouth has broken his nose.
