Church or Politics? Priest’s Anti-Trump Rant Sparks My Walkout

President Trump, You picked the wrong fight. Repent, St. Peter

@llehman1patriot @BobLonsberry @Pontifex Clearly you’re not Catholic. No one asks you for money.

@BobLonsberry @Pontifex This Pope should resign immediately! I will not give one cent to the church until he resigns!

THE POPE IS WRONG The pope is wrong. I'm not talking about the pissing match between him and Trump, an embarrassment arising from two men with problem egos. I'm talking about the gospel. He's wrong about that. On Palm Sunday, presiding at the altar, dressed in his vestments and regalia, standing above the body and blood of Christ, proclaiming as the bishop of Rome the gospel, he said, "Jesus does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war -- but rejects them." Let that sink in. "Jesus does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war -- but rejects them." That is preposterous, and conflicts directly with the Bible, the teachings and history of his own Roman Catholic Church, and the very nature of the Lord Jesus Christ. In the Bible, there are six separates Psalms written as prayers by David while he was waging war. In these prayers he asked God to bless his efforts and defeat his enemies. Does the pope want us to believe that the Lord ignored those prayers and rejected David as he offered them? Should those Psalms be removed from the Bible canonized by his own church four times over more than a thousand years? What about Jehoshaphat, Elisha, Joshua and Hezekiah -- as well as the entire tribes of Reuben, Gad and Manasseh -- who all while waging war prayed fervently to God to deliver them and subdue their enemies? God ignored them, too, and rejected them? That's a little hard to swallow given that each one of them was blessed with success in battle and rejoicingly thanked the Lord for it. That's what the Bible says. As far as the doctrinally authoritative Catechism of the Catholic Church, the church declares the principle of "just war" -- based on the teachings of saints Augustine and Thomas Aquinas -- and Catholic tradition specifically calls on those waging war to ask for victory in justice and protection for Catholic troops. And what of the Catholic chaplains in our Armed Forces? Should they tell young men and women waging war in their country's service that their prayers are pointless, as they will be ignored and rejected by their Savior? Isn't that what the Holy Father said? Finally, there is the matter of Constantine as he prepared for the Battle of the Milvian Bridge. A pagan who was about to wage war, he asked God to bless him with victory. At that point, he saw a cross in the sky and words that told him to march under its banner. That led to his conversion, the embrace of Christianity by the Roman Empire, the Nicaean Creed, and the official governmental sponsorship that made the Catholic Church one of the most powerful and wealthy institutions in the western world. Is the pope saying that the Lord turned a deaf ear to Constantine? Was that all a mistake or misunderstanding? Should we still be worshipping the sun god? Of course not. But this isn't about history or doctrine, soldiers or even the Bible. It's about Jesus Christ. "Jesus does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war -- but rejects them." Nothing could be further from the truth. Jesus listens to everyone's prayers, and Jesus rejects no one. The Lord loves us all, no matter who we are, no matter what we have done, no matter how far we have fallen. God loves us all, and waits like the adoring Heavenly Father he is for us to reach out to him. He rejoices when we pray, he embraces us when we pray, he pours out his blessings upon us when we pray. Even if we are waging war. Even if we are in the depths of sin. Maybe especially if we are in the depths of sin. "The Lord is near to all who call upon him," David said. And that is true, no matter what Leo said. God always loves us, God is always there for us, God will always hear our prayers. It's unfortunate the vicar of Christ seems confused on that point.

@BobLonsberry @KalchikRev Assuming you know something but you’ve got it all wrong. Narcissistic rant about Pope Leo standing against an unjust war.

@Milajoy @Leaanna26936430

I’m fucking done. Sixty years of grinding. A four-year degree earned the hard way. Raising good kids. Paying every tax they demanded. Following every rule. Voting the way they told us to. And for what? A system that mocks us. Politicians who lie to our faces on camera. Empty promises of “better days” that were nothing but bait. They cash the checks. We foot the bill. We built this country. We carried it on our backs. We were the ones who still believed hard work would pay off. Newsflash: It doesn’t. Not anymore. Not for honest, working, middle-class Americans. We’re not blind anymore. We’re awake. We’re angry. And we’re done staying quiet. Who else is finished being exploited? Drop a 🔥 if you’re with me. This ends now.

@mitchellvii @Leaanna26936430 Now that is simply trash talk but you’re forgiven for not knowing.

In my opinion, the Pope is an elected official. There is no mention of a Pope anywhere in the Bible. He is essentially the elected leader of the Catholic church, and that's fine. But don't assign him spiritual importance he does not possess beyond that. What do you think?

@wendyp4545 @Pontifex No Wendy speak for yourself!

@Pontifex Dear Leo, you're a liberal hack. A fraud.

Communion between Christians and Muslims takes shape under the mantle of Our Lady of Africa. Here, in #Algeria, the maternal love of Lalla Meryem gathers everyone as children, within our rich diversity, in our shared aspiration for dignity, love, justice, and peace. In a world where division and wars sow pain and death, living in unity and peace is a compelling sign. #ApostolicJourney

@BishopBarron Yeah. It’s a huge disappointment. He’s gone off the rails

The statements made by President Trump on Truth Social regarding the Pope were entirely inappropriate and disrespectful. They don’t contribute at all to a constructive conversation. It is the Pope’s prerogative to articulate Catholic doctrine and the principles that govern the moral life. In regard to the concrete application of those principles, people of good will can and do disagree. I would warmly recommend that serious Catholics within the Trump administration–Secretary Rubio, Vice President Vance, Ambassador Brian Burch, and others–might meet with Vatican officials so that a real dialogue can take place. This is far preferable to the statements on social media. I am very grateful for the many ways that the Trump administration has reached out to Catholics and other people of faith. It has been a high honor to serve on the Religious Liberty Commission. No President in my lifetime has shown a greater dedication to defending our first liberty. All that said, I think the President owes the Pope an apology.

@Jay3B @allenanalysis You are so misguided

@allenanalysis Only MAGA would defend the Trump administration threatening the Pope and then turn around and call themselves Christians There’s a special place in hell for them all

🚨 The Pentagon summoned the Pope’s ambassador to a closed-door meeting and threatened him. Named official. On record. Undersecretary of Defense Elbridge Colby called Cardinal Christophe Pierre to the Pentagon and delivered this message: “The United States has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.” Then a U.S. official invoked the Avignon Papacy — the 14th century moment when the French monarchy used military force to physically remove the Pope from Rome and bend the Church to its will. The Vatican understood the reference immediately. The Pope’s planned visit to America for the 250th anniversary celebration was cancelled. And then something remarkable happened. The Pope didn’t retreat. He pressed harder. He called the war unjust. He called Trump’s threats unacceptable. He told Americans to call Congress.

I too, am Catholic before I’m American and quite frankly I’m disappointed in Trump! Feel like he sold out!

You can no longer Copy the link of a video anymore on X 😭😭💔

Dear Lord Colorado

I post this every year during Holy Week! 😂 It cracks me up every time. Good Christian humor.

Absolute bombshell. Pope Leo directly rebukes Pete Hegseth for trying to frame the Iran war as a Christian holy crusade. The Pope declares God will not listen to their prayers because their hands are full of blood. A devastating moral condemnation of the Pentagon.

Am I the only Catholic who has an unassigned assigned seat in the Church????

@ReedFawell111 @CatholicSat Has nothing to do with the topic at hand

@CatholicSat But we do not get there by disparaging Jews. Nor do we get there by disparaging and exiling the soldiers who go to war on our behalf.

Commenting on Benjamin Netanyahu's statement where he claimed that "Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan,” Pizzaballa Cardinal Pizzaballa says "For us, victory is in the Cross, and that is what we want to affirm. The Cross is not just suffering and death, it is someone who gives His life out of love."

@McBrideLawNYC @DSPetolicchio Amen to that. Thanks for calling that out.

@DSPetolicchio Hating anyone is sin. Including Palestinians.

Hating the Jews is a sin. Cry about it, X.
