A northern New Jersey priest who sued Governor Phil Murphy after he was threatened with arrest if he held Mass said that the size of his congregation doubled after he went public with his campaign.

The Reverend Father Kevin Robinson of St. Anthony of Padua filed suit against the Democratic governor in May after the stay-at-home orders issued because of the COVID-19 outbreak placed restrictions on religious services.

Robinson appeared on Tucker Carlson’s show on Fox News on Thursday and said that the size of his congregation doubled since he first appeared on the program in May to discuss the lawsuit.

All the people need is a dynamic leader and they will follow. The congregation doubled because people do not support the government. They flocked toward someone with common beliefs and the will to take action. If such a person, not a politician or elected official emerges, the nation will be ours again.

Considering the bishop of Newark is the apostate, homo, "Nighty-Nite, Baby" Joe Tobin, who would want to be under the fat slob?

It’s actually more Catholic. The remainder of Catholicism became less Catholic after Vatican II. You essentially are saying that Catholicism wasn’t Catholic before Vatican II. SSPX didn’t change, stayed the same.
