As I’m sure everyone is aware:
…After being introduced by Obama’s church’s new pastor — Rev. Otis Moss — Rev. Pfleger talks about the importance of taking on “white entitlement and supremacy wherever it raises its head.”
“Rev. Moss, when Hillary was crying, and people said that was put on, I really don’t believe it was put on,” Pfleger says from the pulpit. “I really believe that she just always thought, ‘This is mine! I’m Bill’s wife, I’m white, and this is mine! I just gotta get up and step into the plate.’ And then out of nowhere came, ‘Hey, I’m Barack Obama,’ and she said, ‘Oh, damn! Where did you come from? I’m white! I’m entitled! There’s a black man stealing my show!’
Pfleger then mocks her crying, much to delight of the crowd, many of whom stand up and applaud.
“She wasn’t the only one crying, there was a whole lot of white people crying!” Pfleger says to laughter.
Here’s the description of St Sabina:
Faith Community of Saint Sabina
St. Sabina is a Word-based, Bible teaching African-American Catholic Church that believes in the power of praise and worship.
We are a spiritual hospital where all are welcome and invited to “taste and see the goodness of the Lord.”
Our purpose is to nurture and develop spiritually mature Christians who are not confined by the walls of the sanctuary, but can penetrate the world in order to present God’s way of living as a divine option.
A friend of mine attended Mass – as it were – at a “faith community” here in Las Vegas, and her first question upon entering was “where’s Jesus?”…no crucifix in evidence, which is akin to not having home plate at a ball park. In contrast, my parish mission statement has much to say about being Catholic, Our Lord and other things more traditionally associated with, you know, church (I had placed the mission statement of my parish on this thread – but I am worried that someone will use it to find out which church I attend, and I don’t want my fellow parishoners bothered on my account; sad that I had to be concerned that much with safety).
While Rev. Pfleger has apologised, I find it shocking that a priest of the Church could make so cruel, hateful and grossly inaccurate a statement. What Pfleger said wasn’t even remotely Christian – and I urge his Bishop, Francis Cardinal George, to take firm action to ensure that such statements are never made again.
UPDATE: Monsignor Jim Lisante volunteers to replace Wright as Obama’s pastor…if Obama refuses, perhaps Lisante can take over day to day operations at St. Sabina?
