I’m not religious anymore but I was raised in both Catholic and Mexican Catholic Churches. Every word she said were about God and Jesus’ teachings of mercy and goodwill. Mistaking it for leftist propaganda is unbelievably telling

I think we have to move on from this. Getting ourselves so entangled for days about this is not helping us move forward with the real problems, and they are vast. I think we need to start choosing our battles wisely.

"When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God." Leviticus 19:33-34 (NIV)

I think one of the most impressive things is hearing the tremor in her voice. She isn't 100% comfortable up there saying that, but she is because it is right. I think that's important to remember, now more than ever. Being scared can't stop us from doing what is right.

It’s so bizarre to hear those in government argue about what they believe ‘God’ wants. After all, everyone cherry-picks from their holy books to align with their own morality or agenda. Everyone.

A true hero in so many ways. Watching those smug reactions-nauseating. Worse still his juvenile response. HOW people don’t see it mystifies me. Here’s hoping more people, in every day spaces show this kind of bravery to his face. “F$ck you, Mr President. Would you like fries with that hamberder?”

In my opinion, it was Heroic, but not really rebellious, she was just doing what a Disciple of Christ is supposed to do, confront evil, and guide her flock! Me, I just would have thrown Holy Water on him and watched him melt like the Wicked Witch of the West!

I suspect Trump's reaction was reward enough. And from reading the responses here, her message touched a lot of hearts that desperately needed a jolt of decency and humanity.

"Hello sir, please be nice to these people. They're scared." Response: DEPORT HER WOKE CHURCH ARREST HER FAKE CHRISTIAN etc... etc... etc... Look at my profile, I'm the unity guy. But this is "too far gone". I cannot explain this behavior. It's pure evil and hatred. I'm shaken by it.

If you get *outraged* when clergy asks a supposed Christian to do something Jesus asked of them, but not outraged when other clergy sexually assault children, maybe you are just not a good person—and only pretending to follow Jesus.

Many American Christians 100% only pretend to be Christians. If you go to a mega church, you’re a follower of prosperity gospel and that left Christ in the dust. If you watch televangelists, you’re being conned not guided. If you voted for Trump, you’re not a Christian. You’re a hater.

Shout out to the Heritage Foundation for attacking religion as a whole with their proped up candidates that also helped destroy our healthcare multiple times over. Such a disgrace man. I wonder if they'd support deporting the bishop who simply asked him for mercy.

Ah, yes. The guy from the Middle East always depicted as a Middle European hippie with an Hispanic name. Would they deport or not deport him? That is the question. Of course they would, silly of me to ask.

Evangelicals always quell their cognitive dissonance with inane proclamations of ‘forgiveness’ and love of ‘redemption’ to let these evil fuckers off the hook. They love a ‘redemption story’ ?!? You can’t win, they are in a cult. They have an excuse for everything, in order to feel ‘righteous’

The most fervent Christians are opposed to the teachings of Jesus Those that squeal the most about "free speech" applaud censorship Those that fetishize the flag and cry "freedom", support a dictator. Those that screeched endlessly about the other side and election interference... Just saying

And you know that Jesus Christ never appeared in the Old Testament, does that make the Old Testament not right, no one source leads to another - Jesus was a Jew, a rabbi, and he taught in the Temple, he preached the 10 commandments as well

Trump is about as Anti-Christian as it gets. He's shown himself through the years to be anything BUT Christian. He's a dick, shithead, Rapist, Traitor, Felon, and OMG I know I'm missing something here... Yeah Pathological LIAR! FUCK Trump! I'll have mercy on Anyone else but him. ❤️Bishop Budde!

Quite the contrast in responses (all different) to the prayers during the Inauguration offered by Cardinal Dolan and Franklin Graham who doesn’t warrant the title of Reverend and Bishop Budde at the National Prayer Service. If anyone listened to Franklin, might want to speculate re: Revelations 13 3

I mean yes and no. Great job standing up, but I'm not out here trying to beg for mercy from these clowns. I don't need mercy, I need the GOP and religion in general to get the hell out of my life.

Vance was literally melting down mad, what a pussy ass, the rest of that crew were stunned that their asses were not getting kissed… pathetic losers each and ever one of them.. although I did notice Vance’s wife seemed to be listening with a true heart…

I always thought sermons were lessons and interpretations ... I mean, I am not sure how they are getting around the 8th Commandment. Still, the baseline of Jesus's teaching was about loving your neighbor, healing, and supporting everyone no matter their faith. They need to listen to more sermons

Bless this woman in every facet of her life. May the universe shine lovingly upon her soul for all eternity. This is what a true woman of spirituality and equality is. This is how everyone should love thy neighbor. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

This was a simple Christian message that an unfaithful malignant narcissist can never understand. Thank you, Bishop Budde, for proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Many are not familiar with this message, thanks to Christian leaders who are now misleading leaders.

The bishop had more courage than the entirety of the Democratic party. She stood 20 feet away from the man and told him, to his face, "stop being a fucking fascist". Now he's tearing her apart on social media like a child. More evidence for the already ignorant to ignore.

I thought Vances eyes were going to roll out of his head, and Trump was a deer caught in the headlights. He couldn't run away or scream his way out of that pew! It was an awesome spectacle!!! Rev. Budde deserves the highest commendation for courage and bravery above and beyond the call of duty.

For him to claim to be super alpha males, he took it like the bitch he is! His lil alpha self had to go home, cry about it, and then tweet about it later... what a draft dodging Coward A real man would have said something immediately!

Exposing how outraged Trump and co are by being asked to have empathy is an excellent dilemma to have posed so publicly, with cameras rolling on their fascist faces, right there in church. They see empathy as a threat, because their entire careers are based on rejection of it. Literally Anti-Christ.

You should let that one go. It won't be great for the economy when everything breaks. Interestingly, one of the first things the European Fascists did was spend money on infrastructure.

This is legislation already passed and projects already in motion. This was something good that Biden did. To stop things in progress, especially things that were already approved is a waste of tax dollars.

I've always been amused by the places he hasn't been. There is no press coverage of him ever visiting the National Archives to see the Constitution, either. Could be he went quietly but why wouldn't he make a spectacle of it? It's pretty odd to see him inside a church at all.

He's functionally illiterate. No interest in reading a single paragraph from.a book a newspaper or Heaven forbid.. be challenged to attempt to read a line from the constitution

Please help me spread that we are not alone in this 🫶🏻🏳️‍🌈 bsky.app/profile/ster...

How dare they espouse the teachings of Christ in a Christian church! Where's American Jesus toting an AR15 and a fuck you attitude? Not this woke tolerant foreigner loving brown skinned hippie commie talking about love and forgiveness! Keep getting under the baby's thin skin!

Nothing says ‘Christian values’ like Felon 47 and his cult losing their sh*t over a sermon about mercy. Imagine being so dead inside that kindness toward immigrants and LGBTQ+ people makes you foam at the mouth. Maybe they’re just mad the Bishop didn’t serve Big Macs and Kool-Aid.
