"These are modern concentration camps that I'm writing about. And there is a real heritage of this kind of detention that we have to nod to because concentration camps can't enter the world without some of that previous stuff."

And the price of allowing that perversion of Christianity to prance proudly as it represents itself as "moral" and "religious" is proving to be very high for the whole world — and will get higher.

It's about cruelty, hostility, plain meanness, wrapped up in bible verses.
It's about a rancid, twisted perversion of Christianity that has no gospel, no grace, and certainly no Jesus in it.

What really energizes the white Christian majority that set all this into motion by voting for Trump three times?
It's about their "right" to harm vulnerable others. It's about their desire to swallow, spread, and act on hateful lies about fellow human beings who happen to be immigrants.
Or LGBTQ. Especially, today, trans.

We're discovering that all the loud shouting about abuse of minors meant nothing at all to the same "moral" "majority," when push comes to shove.
When their idol is the one in the limelight as abuse of minors is discussed….
So what is it about, then?

It never was about abortion.
It wasn't about the "right to life." It wasn't about anything "pro-life," definitely not about a consistent ethic of life.
For many of us, this era has been eye-opening. It has taken the mask off the movement masquerading as the "moral" "majority."
And now pedophilia.

"No script, no precedent, exists for what we are seeing. ... What we are seeing is a genuinely prophetic answer to a call from the heart of the Gospel."

"The record is accumulating. Other bishops and priests, joined by hundreds of laity, march to detention centers and issue pastoral statements decrying the activity of a paramilitary force, masked and accountable to no one, that is terrorizing whole cities on orders from the highest levels of government."

"It is a different moment when Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, New Jersey, says it was a priority to celebrate Ash Wednesday Mass inside an immigrant detention center before the usual Mass of that day at the cathedral."

"It is a very different moment in U.S. Catholic experience when the cardinal archbishop of Chicago, Blase Cupich, celebrates an outdoor Ash Wednesday Mass attended by 3,000 people in solidarity with immigrants being detained, a direct condemnation of U.S. government policy."

"The growing response by Catholic leaders to the deliberate and persistent government cruelty imposed on the most vulnerable in our society represents a new moment for U.S. Catholics. It is a moment fraught with no small measure of risk."

As a right-wing Catholic outfit that's the personal plaything of a right-wing Catholic entrepreneur, Ave Maria is heavily invested in the "pro-life" movement. It sends a big contingent to the annual March for Life in DC — which just so happens to have been the venue in which measles infected Ave Maria students and other "pro-life" marchers.

And speaking of the various strands of religion and Christianity in the US and the influence of those strands, there's this story:
There's a major outbreak of measles at the right-wing Catholic university in Florida, Ave Maria. Ave Maria is the love child of right-wing Catholic entrepreneur and pizza magnate of Domino's fame, Tom Monaghan.

"His continued silence on the murder of Catholic ICE nurse Alex Pretti, paired with effusive praise for Marco Rubio’s Munich speech and unprovoked attacks on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Democratic Party, signals a deepening partisan drift that stands in stark contrast to Pope Leo XIV’s consistent moral witness on migrants and religious liberty."

"Bishop Robert Barron, once viewed as a thoughtful evangelist bridging faith and culture, has in recent weeks accelerated a troubling alignment with the Trump-Vance administration and MAGA priorities.
Barron’s latest partisan provocations are now raising alarm within the Vatican."

"Where were their voices when federal agents gunned down two U.S. citizens protesting inhumane treatment of migrants? ...
Had our church's leaders spoken out earlier against the administration's cruelty toward migrants, with the urgency and unity they once devoted to issues such as same-sex marriage, religious liberty or abortion, perhaps political realities would have shifted sooner."

"As the Trump administration escalated its assault on human dignity, many Catholics have wondered: Where are our bishops? Why don't they do something?
Where were their voices when cuts to USAID consigned millions across the world to hunger, thirst and death?"
