Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde said on Wednesday that she had not politicized her remarks during the inaugural prayer service one day prior, instead claiming that everyone else had politicized what she said.

Budde, who used the prayer service and her position at the pulpit to effectively scold President Donald Trump and other Republicans for failing to embrace and “show mercy” to transgender-identifying people and illegal aliens, appeared on ABC’s “The View” to defend her remarks.

Ana Navarro, after lavishing praise on the “very demure and very mindful” bishop, asked Budde whether she believed her message — which she claimed was about “unity” — had gotten through to any of the members of the incoming Trump administration.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Prayers are addressed to Our Lord and Savior, not to the members of the congregation.

I said in another post she must be a DEI pick so the Episcopalian church could virtue signal.  This proves it.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Funny how simple that little bit of discernment is... :shrug:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I am not and never have been a leftist.

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"?

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