This is not just about the Southern border. Jihad Watch reported last April that “the U.S. Catholic bishops submitted a brief to the Supreme Court declaring that President Donald Trump’s ban on migration from five Muslim countries was ‘blatant religious discrimination.’” Is it really? And do the U.S. Catholic bishops feel any obligation to support […]
U.S. Catholic bishops to Americans: Drop dead
As Jihad Watch reported Saturday, “The U.S. Catholic bishops submitted a brief to the Supreme Court declaring that President Donald Trump’s ban on migration from five Muslim countries was ‘blatant religious discrimination.’” Is it really? And do the U.S. Catholic bishops feel any obligation to support measures that would protect Americans from jihad attacks? Apparently […]
US Catholic bishops call Trump’s travel ban “blatant religious discrimination”
The U.S. Catholic bishops submitted a brief to the Supreme Court declaring that President Donald Trump’s ban on migration from five Muslim countries was “blatant religious discrimination.” One learns from childhood to discriminate between what is harmful and what is benign. Trump’s ban was from “countries of concern” that were chosen by the Obama administration […]
U.S. Catholic bishops complicit in Muslim persecution of Christians
Recently I was interviewed about the persecution by Catholic bishops of Catholic priests who enunciate unpopular truths about Islam. “Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14) “Islamic Expert: US Bishops Complicit in Muslim Persecution of Christians,” by Anita Carey, […]
The Catholic Church is punishing U.S. priests for speaking the truth about Islam and jihad
Many bishops protected priests who were child molesters for years, transferring them from parish to parish and allowing them to prey upon new children rather than turning them over to police. In the Catholic Church today, protecting the image of Islam appears to be job one: you can be a cleric who speaks out against […]
Buffalo: Catholic bishop, whose organization gets millions for refugee resettlement, decries “animosity” toward refugees
Bishop Richard J. Malone of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo, New York claims that the vetting process is “extremely thorough and vigorous.” Really? Here is a fact that Bishop Malone doesn’t mention: Tashfeen Malik, one of the San Bernardino jihad mass murderers, passed five separate background checks at five different U.S. agencies. The U.S. […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: U.S. Bishops Welcome Blocking of Trump Travel Ban
Perhaps they have a financial reason for ignoring jihad attacks on churches. My latest in PJ Media: The temporary ban on immigration from seven Muslim countries is dead, at least for the time being, and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) couldn’t be happier. Bishop Joe Vasquez of Austin, Texas, who is the USCCB’s […]
US Catholic bishops, heedless of jihad terror risk, welcome block of Trump immigration ban
“We remain steadfast in our commitment to resettling refugees and all those fleeing persecution.” About those refugees who are coming in order to persecute non-Muslims, Vazquez was silent. This is what he doesn’t want you to know: Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli […]
U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops denounces Trump’s plan to favor refugees from persecuted religious minorities
“‘We believe in assisting all, regardless of their religious beliefs,’ said Bishop Joe S. Vásquez, the chairman of the committee on migration for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.” That sounds very high-minded until one realizes that the Trump plan is to favor refugees who are fleeing being persecuted for their religious beliefs. This […]
US Catholic bishops hold “dialogue” with Hamas-linked group to engage in “advocacy in support of Muslim community”
“Cardinal Blase J. Cupich of Chicago… said that as part of the dialogue’s launch last February, Bishop Robert W. McElroy of San Diego held a public discussion with Sayyid M. Syeed, national director of the Islamic Society of North America’s Office for Interfaith and Community Alliances.” The Islamic Society of North America: “ISNA leaders view […]
US Catholic Bishops launch National Catholic-Muslim Dialogue, partnering with groups linked to Hamas and MB
“The current regional Catholic-Muslim dialogues are the Mid-Atlantic (partnering with the Islamic Circle of North America), Midwest (partnering with the Islamic Society of North America) and West Coast (partnering with the Islamic Shura Council of Southern California and the Islamic Educational Center of Orange County). Each is co-chaired by a bishop and a Muslim leader […]
Raymond Ibrahim: U.S. Christian Groups Support Muslim Refugees, Ignore Persecuted Christians
According to recently released figures from the State Dept., the United States has let in a minuscule number of Christian refugees from Syria — only 34 — during the four years since the Islamic State began its campaign of mass slaughter. Put differently, although Christians amount for 10 percent of Syria’s population—and so should at […]
Robert Spencer, PJM: U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops: Bring Us More Jihadis
And don’t you dare cross the red line of criticizing a bishop. Well, here I go, in PJ Media: “‘Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!’ says the LORD.” — Jeremiah 23:1 “Because, yea, because they have misled my people, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace.” — Ezekiel […]
US Conference of Catholic Bishops wants 100,000 Syrians admitted to US this year
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is calling for the U.S. to take in 100,000 Syrian refugees this year alone, with no regard for the fact that the Islamic State said last February that it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees, or for the fact that an Islamic State operative recently […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Muslim persecution of Christians — the speech the U.S. Catholic Bishops don’t want you to see
UPDATE: I have swapped out the original video embedded in this post for one with improved audio. On August 13, 2015, I was the keynote speaker at the annual convocation of the North American Lutheran Church in Dallas, Texas. I spoke about the global Muslim persecution of Christians. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops sends […]
