During prayers for the congregation yesterday, our pastor said “we pray for those suffering from the government shutdown”.

I almost fell out of my pew.

What about the victims of drug trafficking, human trafficking and those slaughtered by criminal illegal aliens?!

I feel your pain! It took less than that for me to leave my old church home.

And I still haven’t found another; they’re ALL infected with PC BS these days. :(

I’d have gotten up out of my seat and walked out of that church never to return.

You realize one doesn’t cancel out the other?

I know it’s chic on FR to assume that everyone in the employ of any level of government is a scumsucking loser, but there are actually some good people trying to work and provide for their families. This lack of a paycheck due to Dems playing games against Trump is causing genuine hardship in places.

Have just a little bit of empathy, even if it hurts. If you feel so strongly about also wanting prayer for the victims of illegals, then you should bring it up with your pastor.

Why I gave up on “church” a log time ago.
