Democracy Dies in Darkness Morning Mix ‘Stop hate and racism, starting with yourself’: Catholic archbishop hits out at Trump Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller blesses a member of his congregation during his installation service at St. Mark The Evangelist Church in San Antonio in 2010. (KIN MAN HUI/AP) (Kin Man Hui/San Antonio Express-News/AP) Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller blesses a member of his congregation during his installation service at St. Mark The Evangelist Church in San Antonio in 2010. (KIN MAN HUI/AP) (Kin Man Hui/San Antonio Express-News/AP) By Timothy Bella August 7, 2019 at 6:20 AM EDT Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller of San Antonio, one of the highest ranking Mexican American Catholic leaders in the country, was left in shock on Saturday when he heard about the mass shooting in El Paso that killed at least 22 people in his state. Garcia-Siller said there was “no justifiable explanation for such scenes of horror.”

But what was clear to the archbishop, who recently supported migrants and asylum seekers crossing the southern border, was that President Trump’s “invasion” rhetoric against Hispanics, language echoed in a manifesto police believe was posted by the alleged El Paso gunman, helped create a climate that led to the tragedy.

So when LGTBTs attack the church for creating a “hostile environment” for them, then His Grace by his own logic needs to say “yes” you are right the Bible and Catholic Catechism are “responsible” for violence against LGBTers.

The Archbishop should stick to religion, and stay out of temporal matters as much as they do not affect his flock.

I am Catholic, but clerics like this and our current Pope leave me severely disillusioned.

“My opinions on automation, immigration, and the rest predate Trump and his campaign for president,” Patrick Crusius said in his manifesto. The fact it, Trump was no instigator. Crusius was inspired by the Christ Church shooter who, like Crusius also posted his his manifesto to 8chan as well. It looks like that manifesto was Crusius’ true inspiration.

Nice if he’d focus on pedophilia in his own house than bogus claims of phony racism...

Ignores essential moral issues.

He also ignores the Catholic teaching that says migrants should respect and follow the laws of the country(ies) they migrate to.
