Unbelievable sermon by a Catholic priest [View all]

This story was told to me by my Aunt who just spent a week in our local hospital. Her and my Uncle
were visiting relatives in another northwestern Ks town and went to a Saturday night mass there
when tensions were heating up for the 2020 election.

The Priest started by reminding parishioners that in the New Testament Jesus said the old laws
(the Ten Commandments) were replaced by one simple Commandment "Love your neighbor as
yourself" and went on to explain how important love is in this world and how God and Saint Peter
hate those who hate.

Then he talked about all the hate he was hearing from his parishioners about "Those Liberal voters"
and about how wrong it was to hate others because they vote differently.

He ended with reminding everyone that God and Saint Peter hate haters and he doesn't see haters
getting into Heaven because they never obeyed the only New Testament Commandment. Plus the
hate he sees in his community was coming from only one party, republicans.

Not likely. Bishops of Catholic diocese know their priests, and know this priest is truly representing the church's ancianita Oct 2025 #10
