‘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.......

What are you babbling about now?
I have never seen such a crybaby as you.
I could be as bad a crybaby as you, but it doesn’t change you sinned and refuse to repent. Doesn’t alter that you changed your story about what you said twice.
You are a proven liar from your changing stories about it.
You’re going to Hell.
If you don’t like being reminded of that, you could just stop stalking me.
So the puny little god, Lurch, has thus judge my soul; something you have been bitching about for days.
What a hypocrite!
How many times have I added the ‘unless you repent’ part and told you to repent of your sins? I’m sure it should be obvious by now that I always mean ‘unless you repent.’
Because I don’t change my story like you do, liar.
Oh, and...
I could actually BE Lurch, but it doesn’t change that you’re damning yourself to Hell with your unrepentant sins.
I could be the demon Luircifer, but it doesn’t change that you’re damning yourself to Hell with your unrepentant sins.
This is about your sin, ebb. Not me.
Oh, wait. I did add comments about how your *unrepentant* sin is sending you to Hell, which, according to Catholicism, is not the same as judging souls like you did to me.
So now you’re a liar yet again. Good job.
Do you talk to yourself in the mirror?
Because I believe that reflection is the only nut who understands you.
Yes, you could be. Are you?
It seems that no matter how many times you patiently explain this wonderful truth, there are those who hearts are hardened against ever comprehending it. Whether it is because of stubbornness, spiritual blindness or, more likely, PRIDE, there is a mental block. I know, and I'm not alone, that you have never implied that a believer can sin with impunity. What "religious legalists" fail to comprehend - and which Scripture clearly teaches - as you have written, there is:
the mystery that was hidden for ages and generations but is now revealed to His saints. To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. (Colossians 1:26,27)
I'll leave it to the Holy Spirit to open hearts and minds to this glorious truth.
No. But doesn’t matter; you’ve sinned and you’re going to Hell unless you repent.
Are you drunk?
Talking into the mirror again, I see.
Ah, ebb showing off his childish insults.
Grow up.
I’m outta here; you’ve devolved into crybaby ebb again.
And repent of your sins, because if you die tonight you’re going to Hell.
I doubt it. Your sensitive ego won't let you go.
Is that a death threat from the demon, Luircifer?
Am I trembling? Not!!
Thank you dear one. So joyous to see you posting. You have oiur freeper hearts with you.
*Sigh* Thank you for your demonstration of how holding you to your own Catholic standards makes you melt down so rapidly.
In before your immature ‘I’m rubber you’re glue’ comments.
I’m done tossing pearls before swine. If you want to be damned just to spite me, that’s your decision.
“I’m done tossing pearls before swine.”
Probably for the best not to continue wasting your time. (1) They have been brainwashed in their cult (2). They have been told the Gospel time and again on this forum so have heard the truth. It’s time to let the Holy Spirit work and convict (or not). The seed has been planted.
I just read some of his posts to you further down the thread. He seems to have an unnatural, psychiatric fixation on you. It goes way past anything Freud thought up. He also doesn’t like Catholics for some reason. I might even use the word hate. He needs help.
You mean like you have an unnatural fixation on me?
