Tabernacle Stolen from Texas Church After Pro-Abortion Group Threatens to ‘Burn the Eucharist’
LifeSite News ^ | 5/9/22 | Emily Mangiarcina

While the perpetrators haven’t yet been identified, some are speculating a connection to a radical pro-abort group’s recent threat to burn the Eucharist.

KATY, Texas (LifeSiteNews) ― A Texas Catholic church’s tabernacle was stolen sometime during the night, the church’s pastor reported Monday morning.

Father Christopher Plant, pastor of St. Bartholomew the Apostle Catholic Church in Katy, Texas, announced the crime Monday morning on Twitter, calling it a “criminal sacrilege” and revealing that police are investigating the theft.

While the perpetrators have not been identified, some are speculating that members of the radical pro-abortion group Ruth Sent Us may be responsible, considering the group announced Saturday on Twitter, “We’ll be burning the Eucharist to show our disgust for the abuse Catholic Churches have condoned for centuries.”

The avowal of destruction was declared in response to an announcement that the pastor of St. Joe’s Catholic Church on Capitol Hill had called on police to be “ready to intervene” if pro-abortion protestors attempted to disrupt Mother’s Day Mass, as Ruth Sent Us has encouraged pro-aborts to do, because, in their words, “six extremist Catholics” — a reference to the generally conservative Supreme Court Justices — have “set out to overturn Roe.”

I do not understand why leftists hate the Catholic Church like they do. Biden, Pelosi, Schumer and dozens of other liberal DC swamp rats are all Catholics in good standing and they’re all pro abortion.

So it stands to reason that the Catholic Church, headed by a Homo fascist pope, must be pro abortion also.

They hate God and presume the Catholic Org represents God on Earth ... and they don’t want God to rule over them, just like the hate filled Jews shouted at Christ when Pilate offered to swap Jesus with Barabas.

Jesus provided the example of what to do with those profaning the temple.

Wrong. But there are two different types of Catholics … those that follow the teachings and those that pick what they want to follow. One group is right, there other are heretics.

That’s a textbook example of false generalization.

I am surprised that alarms and cameras didn’t deter such an act. All churches are going to have to beef up security. We have, and are continuing to improve ours.

Someone check with the Osmonds to see if they know anything. I always suspect Donny & Marie were up to know good.

Never trust anyone who wears purple socks.

You don’t actually know how reason works do you?

The tabernacle (linguistically it’s a “little tavern”) is that box on the altar that holds the bread & wine.

Also, this idea of “burning the Eucharist” is ridiculous. If they weren’t consumed by the priest/pastor, which is preferable, the alternative and proper means of disposing of the elements is to pour the wine (blood) on the ground and burn the wafer (host). This was intended to show the respect warranted by the Real Presence and prevent any sort of misuse of the consecrated elements.

Knuckleheads.
