Joe Biden and the Pope met recently to the dismay of many Catholics and what they discussed is still up for debate.
Catholics across the country are speaking out against Biden’s claim of being a “devout Catholic” and Pope Francis’s somewhat liberal leanings.
And this archbishop lowered the boom on the Left with a jaw-dropping statement following Biden’s trip to meet with the Pope.
Los Angeles Archbishop Jose Gomez had some harsh words for the “woke mob” and made no bones about how he believes that the Christian roots of society are being erased.
In a video address to the Congress on Catholics and Public life in Madrid, the Archbishop said, “elite leadership class has risen in our countries that has little interest in religion and no real attachments to the nations they live in or to local traditions or cultures.”
Gomez went on in his speech to say that this elite group, “which is in charge in corporations, governments, universities, the media and in the cultural and professional establishments, wants to establish what we might call a global civilization.”
The Archbishop was echoing what many Christians are feeling today – intolerance.
“In this elite worldview, there is no need for old-fashioned belief systems and religions. In fact, as they see it, religion, especially Christianity, only gets in the way of the society they hope to build,” Gomez continued.
Christians are being censored, banished and persecuted all over the world for their beliefs.
The supposed “party of unity” – the Left – has no use for Christianity and wants it banished.
Gomez didn’t stop there, however, and went on to critique cancel culture and political correctness.
“Often what is being canceled and corrected are perspectives rooted in Christian beliefs — about human life and the human person, about marriage, the family, and more,” the Archbishop stated.
The radical Left wants nothing more than to do away with Christianity and replace it with their own belief system.
“Whatever we call these movements — ‘social justice,’ ‘wokeness,’ ‘identity politics,’ ‘intersectionality,’ ‘successor ideology’ — they claim to offer what religion provides.”
“The architects of this movement seek to replace the Christian story with “what we might call the ‘woke’ story or the ‘social justice’ story,” Gomez said.
There is nothing tolerant about a group of people that want to silence Christians.
Those in power right now in the United States are working tirelessly to replace Christianity with their own radical ideologies and it’s high time more Christians begin speaking out against it.
