‘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.”

BAAAAWWWWWW, WHERE IS THE CITATION?! BOO HOO, PHIL WANTS A CITATION!

We’re just using YOUR standards for judging someone, Phil. In Phil’s FalseWorld, an accusation is identical to a conviction.

(And on top of that, you even got a citation too, so I guess that means that your little con artist “prophetess” is REALLY screwed.)

Oooohhh, he’s using the *red text now.*

Phil is srs, gaiz! He’s using red text and thinks that means that it overrides what the original Koine Greek of Scripture actually says!

And woah, other posts using ALL CAPS on top of the red text!

Could it be...

A PHILTDOWN?!

I guess Joyce Meyer is the devil then?

If by that, do I mean she is a false teacher? ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY YES, along with Ellen G White, Beth Moore, Mary Baker Eddy. False teachers all. Whether you agree or not, doesn’t matter to me bro.

“Hahahahahaha, I called you Skipper because you called me lil buddy, LIKE ON GILLIGAN’S ISLAND. I guess you didn’t quite pick up on that, did you, Skipper?”

I must say that no, I didn’t pick up on your Gilligan’s Island reference.

Thankfully.

How convenient of you to distance yourself from your filthy comments and those of your friends. Disgusting and two-faced.”

So, you were disgusted by your own prophetess’ ... “visions” and her constant harping on masturbation?

She’s the one who made all the ruckus, Phil. I can understand your embarrassment and shame for such a disgusting display and her having to the audacity to say it was from God.

So we have confirmation now that Philsworld thinks that Ellen G. White is disgusting, filthy, and two-faced.

One wonders why he still follows her teachings; is he disgusting, filthy, and two-faced too?

More clear: 1 Corinthians 14:34-35

“34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.

“35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.”

So many cults are here, which one to choose
All of the cults, l will most surely refuse
I do think Ms White
Can go fly a kite
Picking a false religion will give you the blues.

It just amazes me (no, not really) how many lies you tell. Because, the truth is not in you.
