PopeWatch: Deep State and Deep Church Alliance

The riot on Capitol Hill is being seized upon by the usual suspects in the Church to crack heads among orthodox Catholics:

Cardinal Wilton Gregory, last seen  having a hissy fit last summer against Trump using tear gas against violent protesters, has issued a screed, go here to read it.

Ed Condon, much to PopeWatch’s surprise, decries any Catholic leader who could be called remotely conservative.  Go here to read his post.

Bishop Barron could not miss this opportunity to emote:

 

Of course the USCCB has been heard from:

 

 

The bleakly hilarious thing is that the nation went through a half year last year of Antifa and BLM riots, looting and murder, with hardly a peep from most of the usual suspects in the Church except to say that racism was bad and Orange Man Bad.  Catholics expect a single standard from the Church and are so frequently disappointed.

Clearly the Bergoglian “Catholic” Church is not on our side. They are on the side of the devil. The 3rd Secret of Fatima is now in the process of being fulfilled. See Return to Tradition.

What will they do without the Orange Man?
That’s right–get ripped to rhetorical pieces in the Intersectionality Wars.

And wow, Condon’s prescription is going to just make it so much worse. Given how passively the hapless bench in the face of the provocative voices on the left, fighting dissent on the right when the left holds the levers of power is going to go over like a lead 747.

All it will show is that the powerful will get a pass so long as their heinous policies are cloaked in polite rhetoric.

“Go ahead and abolish the Hyde Amendment–so long as you’re amiably folksy, it’s all good. Go ahead and force Catholic hospitals to ‘transition’ children–at least you aren’t the orange man.”

Condon’s prescription will turn the American Church into the American Patriotic Association. Pass.

What was violent about the peaceful crowd tump had dispersed with tear gas so he would take a photo op awkwardly holding a bible in the air? Why else would the military have apologized for the incident? And the only deaths I remember from the BLM protests were of BLM marchers by a crazy right winger freely walking around in front of police with a rifle. BLM never made it even close to the entrance of the capitol while many of the right wing thugs that vandalized the capitol the other day were welcomed in.by capitol police.

Gee whiz, “john”, if you’re going to keep trolling this blog with incoherent rants from your little fantasy world, at least learn how to type and spell. Better yet, just go away. Your act is way past its sell-by date.

Definitely fantasy world.

Or, rather, proof that black lives really do not matter to John– Davud Dorn, killed when he walked down to check the security alarm on a friend’s store, doesn’t matter. The guy shot in cold blood for walking in Portland while maybe being center-right doesn’t matter. Even those idiots that were hit by a car walking on the freeway don’t exist, in John’s world. Not that football payer killed stopping “protesters” that were mugging two women– Chris Beaty.

This is quite old, but has some of the deaths:

While I was looking that up, I found where John is ripping off. Some race baiting idiot at the Guardian regurgitated the “mostly peaceful” junk, looked at the reactions to the groups, totally ignored that the damage this week was less than the BLM protesters had done in multiple other instances in Washington DC, and demonstrated a horrific ignorance of the US system.

golf clap

You mean the ex-convicts who had served time for child abuse?

Yeah, what a “crazy right-winger” Kyle is. Defending himself from child molesters. /sarc

Kyle was clearly asking for it, walking around with a fire extinguisher and medical kit after someone stopped the mob from rolling a flaming dumpster into a gas station and three cop cars by putting the fire out.
