Not just fleeing the Middle East:

Christians being driven from American Society Too




It’s not just the Mideast from which Christians are being driven.

“Christians are being driven from the Middle East in suffering,” Pope Francis said in a video message yesterday as French Cardinal Phillipe Barbarin visited the Iraqi city of Irbil, where thousands of Christians have taken refuge.

“And from America; and from the military, who need God’s protection, as we do in the USA,” adds Fred Abel of jfredabel@gmail.com.

Abel is spot on.

The main difference between Christians being driven out of the Middle East and those being driven out of America is that the American pattern is so very much more subtle.

It comes from court rulings against the public display of crosses;  the banning of the very utterance of God’s Name at high school graduation ceremonies; prayers in school, and even during 9/11 Memorials; the renaming of the Christmas Tree as the Holiday Tree; and that’s only to name a few of those rapidly increasing anti-Christian subtleties.

In America, the driving of God from the Public Square is now so de rigeur that it emboldens the enemies of Christ right on home turf.

On Nov. 14, 2014, the Muslim Brotherhood actually succeeded with a takeover of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.

These are the heretical words intoned by an Imam leading a chanting congregation of hundreds that rang out from one of America’s most prominent Episcopal churches on that day in a declaration boldly stating that”: “god has no son, that Jesus Christ cannot be his son, and that there is no god like Allah. ”(IsraelToday, Nov. 20, 2014)

“Only a single middle-age woman jumped up in the middle of the service and shouted, “America was founded on Christian principles. . . . Leave our church alone!” She was escorted quickly out of the church by security guards.

“The Islamic service at the cathedral was ostensibly intended to promote interfaith dialogue. Its organizers said that they hoped the service would “help correct some Americans’ misperceptions of Muslims as extremists and reinforce tolerance among faiths.”

Denying Jesus as the Son of God does zero to promote interfaith dialogue.

Perhaps Pope Francis will see when he visits Philadelphia this coming September that its “Brotherly Love” motto doesn’t have the same meaning it once held.

We can always hope that by that time, and hopefully even before, the pontiff will consider that because of its actual deeds, it was the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) who welcomed the Prince of Darkness into both church and state.

For it was the work of the USCCB in Chicago that financed Saul Alinsky, who dedicated his book ‘Rules for Radicals’ to Satan still in use by the US far left today.

“In the 1930s, Alinsky met the Meegan brothers, Joseph and Peter. Joseph introduced him to the Chicago Bishops and to his brother, Fr. Peter Meegan, who in turn introduced Saul to Aux. Bishop Bernard Sheil. Meegan and Sheil introduced Alinsky to the inner workings of the Catholic Church.” (Colorado Coalition for Life/Michael Voris, Feb. 18, 2012). “During this time, Saul organized his first community project called the “Back of the Yards Neighborhood Council”. “At this point, Alinsky pulled off his greatest coup and garnered the Bishops’ public seal of approval. He convinced Aux. Bishop Sheil to join John L. Lewis, the head of the CIO (eventually known as the AFLCIO), on stage. At that moment the Catholic Church and the labor unions entered into an unholy partnership.

“Msgr. Jack Egan teamed up with Alinsky, and in time, Egan was affectionately known by the Chicago press as “Alinsky’s priest intern”. Egan promoted Alinsky so well that he was more popular among Catholics than the bishops. Through the ‘40s, ‘50s, and ‘60s, Egan and Alinsky developed a well oiled network of priests and bishops throughout the United States. In 1968, newly appointed Cardinal Cody realized that what Msgr. Egan was doing was not in line with Catholic doctrine and closed his office.

“Fr. Ted Hesburgh invited Msgr. Egan to Notre Dame for a sabbatical. He remained at Notre Dame for the next 14 years where he continued to develop his priest’s network. Egan periodically brought priests to the Catholic Mecca for conferences under the liberal eye of Hesburgh. Egan was now in mainstream Catholic life.

“During Egan’s time at Notre Dame in the late ‘60s, race riots broke out around the country. A document called Black Manifesto was published which called for reparations for African Americans. The Catholic Church chose Msgr. Jack Egan and his network of priests to come up with plans to alleviate poverty. All of Egan’s priests, save one, were personally trained by Saul Alinsky in the tactics laid out in his book, Reveille for Radicals. This opportunity allowed Egan’s network of priests to implement Saul Alinsky’s radical community organizing tactics of gaining power and strength from the people and using it to empower and enlarge government.

“In a few months, the network created the “National Crusade Against Poverty” (NCAP) and committed to raise 50 million dollars over several years. The campaign should have raised the money and dissolved. It did not, and in fact, it is still in existence today under the name of the “Catholic Campaign for Human Development”. The CCHD has raised over $289,000,000 in 40 years, and by donating to the radical left, they have gained immense power in the abortion and homosexual communities.”

Anyone reading this who doesn’t feel a shiver down the spine when recalling that Obama successfully had authorities at Georgetown cover all religious symbols when he made his 2009 commencement speech there, isn’t awake.

“He was there to pay tribute to his mentors in community organizing. To pay tribute to those who helped put him in office. In his speech he mentioned his high regard for Cardinal Bernardin, who spoke at one of the first organizing meetings he ever attended.” (Michael Voris).

And the race riots, orchestrated by the Alinskyites of the 1960s,  are staging a second go at anarchy today.

Call the Alinskyites out from the USCCB, Pope Francis, and help return America to the country to which Christians flee to and not from.
