'Not a sincere Christian': Catholic archdiocese protests Trump in front of the White House

Washington, D.C. — Catholic activists gathered Monday nearby the White House to protest the death of George Floyd in an event sponsored by Washington Archbishop Wilton Gregory.

Priests, nuns, and laypeople joined an already vocal contingent of people speaking out against police brutality, as well as those opposed to President Trump’s use of religious imagery in his attempts to quell civil unrest. The protest was described in an email sent out by the archdiocese as a call to “rededicate ourselves to the defense of all life and recommit ourselves to pray for an end to racism.”

A group of priests in Lafayette Park leading the protest asked that everyone present pray the Act of Contrition, a prayer Catholics usually say when they have sinned, to atone for racism in the United States. Led by Cornelius Ejiogu, a priest within the archdiocese, the crowd recited Floyd’s final words, and several people read from the gospel.

After several clergymen had spoken, the crowd turned toward the White House and chanted in unison, “Father forgive them, for they know not what they do,” a reference to Christ’s words to the Romans as he hung on the cross.

Has Trump claimed to be a Christian believer?

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Wow. This who is a Christian and who is a 'fake' Christian movement, is growing.
The most un-Christian thing I know of is for a person claiming to be a Christian pointing at another parishioner and claiming that they are either not Christian or not Christian enough. So I guess today, the idea that we are all sinners who have been cleansed by the blood of the lamb no longer applies universally.

It seems that these days, the Christian foundation of 'redemption of sins' only applies to wacko Leftists. Apparently, according to these very un-Christian Christians, Trump's sins are so severe that he is beyond the reach of Jesus. Trump is beyond the reach of God, according to the Left.

It is not longer being resigned to God to determine righteousness. The Left is claiming that authority for themselves.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

This would be the same folks who burned Jan Hus alive for declaring Jesus Christ to be the Supreme Judge.

If we're not permitted to say, "All lives matter," how on earth could we say, "God so loved the world ..." as opposed to just those of particular skintone. You can bet it isn't permissible to say we've all sinned. So far as I can tell from recent pronouncements, only we folks of paler hue are sinners.

This site does not like us talking about religion, but the UGLY TRUTH is that no one from the Catholic hierarchy should be dictating what is Christian versus what is not.  After sexually assaulting hundreds of thousands of children in just the USA alone, these people should be ashamed to show their faces in public for a century.

President Trump has done more for RIGHT TO LIFE than any politician in my lifetime, and I believe he would lead an effort to abolish the genocide of our unborn if the opportunity presents itself.

Abortion is murder.  But I do not hear these holy men condemning that on a daily basis.
