Marjorie Taylor Greene: I Was Raised Catholic, but Wicked Bishops Have ‘Driven Me Away’ from the Church
LifeSite News ^ | 5/4/22 | Claire Chretien

‘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.”

Wow. If nothing else, go to minute mark 6:40 and go through to 10:40. I was blown away during the part at 9:20. Didn’t know they believe “Satan takes the sin of the world, not Christ.”

Yes, I saw it. Absolute false doctrine, with a capital FD.

Leaving the SDA cult for a moment. 🤭😀

Mary’s old man Joseph was just a horny old goat
He took them both to Egypt, or so it is was wrote.
Returning to their bed
After Herod was dead
They had other boys and girls we also must note

No wonder the cultist is so blind! The spirit of antichrist has taken him over.

You’re not kidding, my brother. There is so much more to it that it blows my mind. I’m guessing that the majority of the SDA know almost nothing about what they’ve gotten themselves into.

I’d run so fast you wouldn’t even see me go by! The Roadrunner would have nothing on me, I guarantee you.

Acts 10:28And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

Metmom's version: ...But God has shewed me that I can EAT whatever I want, whether clean or unclean. Has NOTHING to do with eating.
