So murderers, rapists and child pornographers no longer have to attend Mass in person?

These people don’t know empathy…they know no shame.

When will the Pope put Trump under Interdiction? Ayatollah K has a couple of Fatwas on Trump’s head.

Christians wanted so bad to be persecuted... now they are.

This so disturbing, so now individuals cannot attend Church or Worship? Are we great yet?

Its all good Church will send them a collection bill

He knows…

Goodness Find a safe space to communicate with your God

Maybe these same churches can start making some donations now

They’re showing up in Camarillo and Oxnard today, snatching folks out in the fields,in that heat, making it possible for everyone to have strawberries, just minding their own business.

According to MAGA the orange Hitler is the 'chosen one', the only mass they observe is Mass Destruction of the American rights & abstinence of the United States Constitution. They worship their messiah faithfully

That’s OK. Good for the Catholic Church bishop protecting the flock. Priests can Zoom the Mass and pray for our country!

Now that would make a REAL impact!

It’s so disgusting

It’s unthinkable‼️😢😢

Well, Jesus was white, so brown people don't count /s

The Catholic church has done very little to protect its adherents from abuse, so this feels a bit like a failure. And if it’s an issue of suddenly deciding to observe the separation of church and state, I’d like to know when the Church is planning to start paying taxes?

Every bishop in the US should send out the same message. Unless they are OK with masked, armed thugs raiding their churches.

I hope so! You *know* things are awful when The Society of Friends is on the case. They are pacifists but always step up for civil rights, always. They have done all along as part of the Underground Railroad until present times.

The feds should be ashamed period. It’s not about the faithful.

I mean, fuck ICE and all, but faith shouldn’t be respected one way or the other by government.

WTF We are not doing enough to protect our fellow Christians.

How long before ICE deems this an interference with its immigration enforcement actions?

What happened to the free exercise of religion? Are ICE proud that they are having a chilling effect on people’s right to go to church?

They have no shame or morals. God will judge them harshly.

To add to this, why do you think the USA is in this mess- brainwashing from POWs!- Places Of Worship! They expect people to follow blindly right to their own demise. The USA is following the footsteps of the Taliban.

Not to mention the good Catholic boys of Opus Dei terrorizing the faithful like Tom Homan and Kevin Roberts

One has to have a conscience to be embarrassed!

They won’t! They don’t have the capacity empathy to feel shame, regret, or remorse!

I had this year two employees leave to go work for companies where they can be 100% remote because they're generally worried about ICE. And they're both U.S. born citizens. This is a terror campaign.

Definitionally.

Well, despite the Catholic Church signing on to this Regime, by and large the majority of neo-evangelical Christians dislike the Catholic Church and its hierarchy, liturgical practices and so forth. So they’re ok with Catholic immigrants being forced to flee. This isn’t their demographic.

Disgusting is what it is, and shameful.

My "wtf" here is actually the obligation to attend mass. Grew up Protestant, with Catholics on my mom's side. But the Catholics were always reasonable, from my Grandpa's very short burial service because he was known to walk if things drug on to Grandma tellong my mom she was too conservative.

Everyone knows God approves defying the sanctity of the Church to discriminate against your fellow man. Isn’t that one of the Commandments?

Well, glad you’re speaking up but most of your followers voted for the orange felon demon. True Pro-life seekers means helping the poor immigrants and also supporting women reproductive rights and medical protection. WWJD.

Wait - there is an obligation to attend mass? It’s not a choice? Doesn’t sound very Christian to me.

Fuckin' assholes. Every day that passes, I see more and more ungodly behaviors being promoted as 'fine' or justified in the name of Jesus or God. This is the weirdest shit I've ever seen.

Churches used to be places of sanctuary.

I had faith in America once.

a church in SoCal which had a raid occur on its property told parishioners to watch the livestream as it wasn’t safe to gather-LA cancelled its July 4th celebration concerned such a gathering would be an ice magnet

Too many of them already believe he is 😵‍💫

Believe me, he's working on it as we speak.

Because truly devout people get comfort from their church and ceremonies. In times of crisis, communal prayer improves mental health and community. Holy communion is a direct communication from their god. It's cruel to target a place of worship, don't you agree? And not ethical

It’s not just the parishioners who should fear trump’s NAZI brigade; California and many other states have Latino priests, bishops , & cardinals 🧌

If it wasn't for religion and the "Christian" right, Trump wouldn't be in office. If it wasn't for 5 specific Catholics - Roberts, Alito, Thomas, Barrett, and Kavanaugh - Trump wouldn't be in office. Religion is part of the problem. And Catholicism in particular is a HUGE part of the problem.

Who knew the Catholic Church would get it right?

They encouraged their flock to vote for DT!

Anyone surprised about tactics now may burn later.

Thank you, Christopher! 🙏🏾

It is extremely hard to muster any sympathy for a Church that has bought into the republican terrorism, aided hateful and deadly policies for decades. Leaving aside their active participation in GOP-ism, how did they not see that electing the Klan would come back to bite them in the backside?

*if a member of the faithful has a genuine fear of being KIDNAPPED!! FIFY

It is time to remember the words of John Lewis; get in, “GoodTrouble.” youtu.be/RAyZTy2pnPY?...

Sad

Wondering if ICE will go into convents and drag out nuns.

They have no shame

How is an 'omnipotent deity' incapable of protecting their followers from unjust persecution? Either they're not "omnipotent" or the persecution is just? Why are ANY nice people being persecuted? (I know I'm not supposed to ask THESE questions, but they popped up so here we are.)

No religion means anything to MAGATS. They use their own christian nationalism as a weapon. They have faith in nothing except abuse of power & the rewards of corruption. Their hypocrisy & cruelty are the hallmarks of their christofascist religion.

Who knew dooms day wasn’t a comet, meters, climate, sun, Aliens, nukes, it would be guy with. Sexual assault, Accused of being a PEDRO, rape, convicted on 34 felonies, fraud, obstruction, pathological liar. Embezzlement, stealing classified files, pardon all JAN6Ers, Russian Asset! I mean who knew!

ICE completely upsetting all of America!! This is Democracy being destroyed!

I thought churches were sanctuary...inviolate... Granted, ICE is rogue, but in this supposedly "Christian" nation, doesn't that seem a little...contrary?

Sorry, ICE needs to stay the fuck away from all schools, churches, hospitals and daycares...

Religion was created for the sole purpose of controlling people.

💁🏾‍♀️ All of it shows that Trump isn't and never has been a Christian bcuz he doesn't know that Satan can bless you as well. When you're as cruel and mean-spirited as Trump and the maganut Republicans, blessings definitely aren't bcuz they're so holy and righteous. None of them understand Christianity.

Unfortunately anyone in or in support of the current administrations seem to lack the morals and empathy to be shamed.

ICE = Trump’s Insanity

War: a state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state.

There was a time in Ireland when Catholics were forbidden to practice their religion, priests would be killed for saying Mass. People met in secret to receive the sacraments and pray together. Years of bitter fighting, lives lost, and England finally was defeated. Are we getting closer?

And yet the maga cult tells us God chose trump to save Christianity.

The Catholic church moved people toward conservatism and the GOP. One Catholic Bishop called me a "cockroach that needed to be exterminated" just because I am trans. None are free, until we are ALL free. Not just the people the Catholic Church likes are free.

They will miss the sacraments! These people are aweful.

Couldn't this be considered a violation of their First Amendment rights?

The faithful? Something about that distinction

Sadly, the only faith denomination that has boldly stepped up to follow - the teachings of the Bible.

NYT headline: Trump's Goons Persecute Christian Faithful (in my dreams). Wondering how the Catholic zealots on the Supreme Court reconcile their hatred for immigrants with their faith, but I guess phenomenal powers of rationalization are part and parcel of being a right wing Justice.

Provocative as fuck to see the government behave this way to human beings. But that is what Trump wants, to provoke us to the point that we begin to rebel. He will invoke the insurrection act to cancel elections - 10,000 new agents and endless beds in cages all over the country. Be cool. Bide, VOTE.

They should be but they have no shame. They know they will be reelected next election. A huge portion of voters like to not show up to vote because neither candidate is focused on their little issue.

Thank you

Thank you

Republicans war on religion.

See this regime running this country are persecuting Christians. This regime is anti-christ.

I'm not christian in any shape or form, don't believe in god, but they make a big deal about how christian and righteous they are and then have zero respect for the churches and centuries of them being sanctuary spaces. Øne place I wouldn't have expected them to terrorize is a christian church.

People cannot even go to church. People who want to go to church can’t go to church while evil people sit at home and cheer about that. Fucking monsters.

Quakers tried to sue for this a few months ago, but lost the case. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Protestant-dominated government deporting predominantly Catholic people.

Christians throwing other Christians in concentration camps has to be peak irony.

Christians are by far the dumbest people alive. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARVO “The idea of God implies the abdication of human reason and justice; it is the most decisive negation of human liberty and necessarily ends in the enslavement of mankind both in theory and practice.” -Mikhail Bakunin

How long until the Trump regime threatens some sort of punitive action against Mr. Bishop here?

I think GOD needs me to stay put for a while. I can't afford to go to church all of a sudden never had this issue before. The threat is real. Enter the house of GOD in your fucking Neo Hoods: Masks your ass is grass and I like to smoke mother fucking ICE. Guess i'll just have to patrol my city.

1. Terrorizing the unfairhful is equally bad 2. In the Netherlands they can stay safely in church during a service, as police may not enter during that. As a result some refugees are hiding in a church where the parochians are holding a service for weeks on end.

Sad moment in history.

Look where we are! We have to come together & stop this spiral of evil!

Trump and the Republicans said there is a war on Christians. They were right;Republicans are attacking Christians led by the anti-Christ.

They're proud boys & white supremacists - they have no shame.

They don’t care!

Wrong color faithful. Their ‘Sunday Best’ is too colorful, & the guitar-led songs are too up-tempo & cheerful….

Having large religious groups on the side if immigrants is important. The more people and institutions standing against Trump and his cruel policies the better.

Immigrants are staying away from churches, hospitals, work…Simply heartbreaking

Not just the faithful, but any undocumented people. No one deserves this. No one.

👍🏻 not enough tho.

I applaud the bishop 👏. Trump and his MAGAS "HATE" against Hispanics is making ICE the Gestapo of his administration.

Any post that criticizes the administration without calling for impeachment is just angry rhetoric. It's not enough to report on their crimes. You have to call for their punishment.

You know shit is bad if the catholic church is doing the right thing.
