I’m sure many of you have seen the Father Michael Pfleger "white guilt sermon" from Trinity United Church.
I have to say up front, I’m a Roman Catholic. Never in my 35 plus years attending mass, has a priest acted in such a manner. Clearly Pfleger didn’t follow the order of mass, to say the least. I didn’t hear any Biblical readings or intercessions. His “homily” was nothing more than a racist rant.
This is hate speech, plain and simple.
I understand churches will invite speakers to address the congregation on a variety of issues. Those addresses are usually optional and separate from the odinary services. From what I can gather, this tirade was given during the normal celebration.
Its clear Trinity United is violating their tax exempt status by continuing to endorse a presidential candidate from the pulpit. This sermon was political rhetoric.
I, for one, attend mass to hear the Word of our Lord, a spiritual edification within a community of believers.
Pfleger is a total disgrace and a stain on the Catholic community.

Oh, no, that's not hate! People on the left don't hate. They're compassionate. It's the people on the right who hate. White people hate. Not Pfleger or Moss or Wright. No, sir.
I stand corrected, Skye.
I obviously need to attend re-education camp.
