@EWTNews Yeah, agree but they’re not our brothers and sisters. Lose the theology faculty he speak. Reject antisemitism. And hubris.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has released a video ahead of Easter decrying antisemitism and calling on Catholics to “speak out clearly” against it. “The Church, mindful of the patrimony she shares with the Jews and moved not by political reasons but by the Gospel’s spiritual love, decries hatred, persecutions, displays of antisemitism directed against Jews at any time and by anyone,” Archbishop Alexander Sample of Portland, Oregon, said in a March 18 video message posted by the USCCB. “The Jewish community is attacked at a far higher rate than any other religious group in the United States,” he said. “If we Catholics, in truly living out the Gospel, are to defend religious freedom with integrity, we must clearly speak out against antisemitism.” The USCCB’s message comes less than 20 days before the Easter Triduum, during which Catholics “celebrate the central events of our faith,” Sample said. However, the archbishop said, “sadly, the celebration of Easter has at times been the occasion for outbursts of hatred and even violence against Jews.” “The guilt for the suffering of Jesus is especially great in us because we who profess to know Christ deny him with our sins,” he said, citing the Catechism of the Council of Trent, which rejects the claim, known as the myth of deicide, that the Jewish people bear the guilt for the death of Jesus, as well as the Second Vatican Council document Nostra Aetate. “Indeed, Good Friday ought to be an occasion for us to return to the Lord, not to scapegoat others,” he said, describing the myth of deicide as “a profound misunderstanding of what took place on Good Friday” and a significant source of historic and modern antisemitism. “As Catholics, we are called to walk in the truth, and so to reject the conspiracies and lies that lead to harassment and even violence against our Jewish brothers and sisters,” Sample said. Nathan Diament, executive director of public policy for the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations in America, welcomed Sample’s remarks, telling EWTN News: “The statement by Archbishop Sample on behalf of the USCCB could not come at a more important time with bad actors weaponizing Catholicism to spread antisemitic views.” “We are grateful for the leadership of the Church itself stating unequivocally that the Church rejects those assertions and repudiates antisemitism,” he said. The Church’s views on antisemitism recently became the center of controversy when media personality Carrie Prejean Boller was removed from the White House-sponsored Religious Liberty Commission last month for remarks she made during a hearing focused on antisemitism. The former Miss California repeatedly stated during the hearing that her Catholic faith prevented her from embracing Zionism, despite Catholic teaching that does not oppose Israel as a nation or the Jewish people. Boller also repeatedly pressed Jewish panelists on whether her views made her an antisemite. Catholic teaching does not explicitly oppose Zionism, the movement supporting Jewish self‑determination in a homeland in Israel. Ancient Israel is seen as God’s chosen people through whom God revealed himself and prepared the way for the coming of Jesus Christ. The Catholic Church universally condemns antisemitism. The Church recognizes Israel’s fundamental right to exist. ewtnnews.com/world/us/archb…

@USCCB @ArchbishpSample Yes, but they’re not our brothers and sisters. Are not.

Catholics are called to reject antisemitism and the lies and conspiracies that fuel it, and to stand clearly against hatred and violence directed toward our Jewish brothers and sisters. To defend religious freedom with integrity, we must also reject antisemitism. @ArchbishpSample @archdpdx Watch the full video at: ow.ly/sYF550Yw6cA

@MOSSADil That’s exactly what they’re waiting for. The all clear so that they can posture.

🚨 UPDATE: Six major powers — Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the Netherlands — say they’re prepared to help ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz following recent Iranian attacks on commercial vessels. However, Italy and Germany clarify any involvement would come after a ceasefire, not immediate military action. Stay connected, follow @MOSSADil.

@MagneticNorse So much for those animal senses about natural disasters. Really uncanny how they seem to not know.

It’s interesting to me that the dog doesn’t attempt to retreat. I wonder if it’s loyalty to his owner or blissful ignorance.

@Blitz_Burgh Great guy. Walter Peyton something, something….

@bonchieredstate These people are all nuts. Completely unbecoming of anything related to politics or rule of law or order.

See how this works? It doesn’t matter whether they actually did anything criminal (maybe they did, maybe they didn’t). All that matters is that they espouse the narrative, and thus, they become untouchable. None of this is a coincidence.

@ThomasSowell But if you don’t clean out the rat’s nest, by whatever means necessary, they’ll be back worse than before. FINISH THE JOB.

@bonchieredstate Typical.

@stevemagness Because they probably couldn’t find the competition locally, but neither should they be traveling hundreds of miles to find it. They’re 10. This stuff is madness. Banning, though?

Can someone explain why some 10 year old needs to travel hundreds of miles for competition that they almost certainly could have found locally? Travel leagues for youth sports should be banned.

@DontCallMeDebby Absolutely true.

Can confirm.

@edgeshadow1789 @Blitz_Burgh GTFOH. Know ball. He sucks.

@PetroniusArbit @Blitz_Burgh You flat out dont know ball... he's got immense arm talent and can really rip it down the field... all his flaws are coachable.

@UFWupdates This from the fucking assholes who covered for their communist icon Chavez while he was sexually abusing little girls. FOH. You cock suckers are trash.

We've got to stop Trump's farm worker wage cuts. Their H-2A rule change drastically cuts wages for H-2A farm workers and local workers alike. We filed suit in federal court to block it, but lawsuits take a long time and are very expensive. Please help. act.seiu.org/a/trumpswagecu…

@PensInsideScoop I’d shelf Girard until I could trade him. Dubas got the wrong end of that deal.

Sidney Crosby (lower body), Sam Girard (lower body), and Jack St. Ivany (upper body) are all taking part in the #LetsGoPens full morning skate following a travel day on Tuesday. All other expected players are on the ice.

@JoeyMannarino Europe has been suicidal since the 1910s and probably even before that. Which is why the U.S. MUST leave NATO. They’re not interested in human flourishing. They’re necromancers.

Berlin has just imposed INSANE immigration quotas on the judiciary system. Now 40% of candidates for judges and prosecutors must have an immigrant origin. Is that so they can just let all the migrant criminals off easily without any repercussions at all? How the hell is this not a systematic version of racial replacement of Germans? Do the Germans ever plan on fighting back?

@ThomasSowell To not cheat? Screw him.

@SteelersDraftt Yeah it made such a big difference for PSU to do that.

Holy shit.
