Some takeaways:

  1. Trump is the most pro-life, anti baby-murder president we've ever had, and it's a demonic plot that stole the election from him. The communist Democrats are hell-bent on killing as many babies as possible to show their allegiance to Satan.

  2. Then they showed a clip of a Muslim devotional video which claimed Allah was the one true god. After the clip ended, they started praising Trump for keeping the borders closed. If he let the Muslims in, rampant evil would spread across our great nation the likes of which has never been seen, collapsing our institutions to enact Sharia Law.

  3. They then showed protesters at an ICE detention camp, holding signs such as, "Family Has No Borders", "Close the Camps", and "Abolish ICE". They began to harangue the protesters, calling them Marxist actors who want to let as many illegal drug dealers and traffickers into our country as possible, in order to weaken our amazing president's administration.

This was all within ten minutes, lol. TV Christianity is literally just state propaganda of the Republican party. Nothing that they spoke about had anything to do with God or Christ.

    The Catholic Workers and Satanists would definitely work together if it meant making peoples' lives better. Dorothy Day refused to be canonized because it would dull her radicalism. Material change and radical people is what we want.

        Catholic Worker is actually unaffiliated with the church, just a hold over from early days. Guy I knew who worked there was basically atheist.

        Quite the evolution in rhetoric. I bet you would when you met a couple Catholic Workers. They are more committed to helping the poor than they are to their religion. Voluntary poverty and civil disobedience are the big tenets amongst this group. Maybe don't generalize Christians, especially when I explicitly mention that most of them are Anarchists first and foremost.

          I guess it’s all based on experiences. I was molested all thw way from the 2nd to the 4th grade under a house of “god”, and it was swept under the carpet per usual. I get the help, bless em for the work they do, but there are other way to help folks without preaching pseudoscience.

              damn, i am really sorry to hear that. i genuinely hope i didnt bring anything bad up for you.

              agree to disagree. we both have similar visions, so for that i am thankful. we could probably get real deep into this discussion but hey, we can do this just about anywhere on the internet. <3

                At the end of the day I don't think the CW are the end all be all. Just a few thousand people doing good work to alleviate people living on the street. I find myself in the camp of Agnosticism. If there is a mainstream group that is getting people off the streets with no questions asked, I'm going to help them.
