+Gregory Silent on Twitter

 Even though +Gregory has blocked me on Twitter, my friend Melvin was kind enough to send me a screen shot.

Remember how I said that +Gregory was silent on Biden's abortion moves, well, here is a screen shot of his twitter account (most likely managed by someone in his Communications Department) taken on the afternoon of January 30th.

You can see, that there are nothing about Biden and abortion.

 Sad and shameful.

Blocked by +Gregory on Twitter

 

Well it seems that my criticism of +Gregory has been too much for him or at least the person who handles his Twitter account.    

I have been blocked.  

 It is not that the he or the person who manages his account posts a heck of a lot, because in the last 30 days, he only tweeted three times.  But I guess one of my comments hit a bit too close to home.  

Someone told me I should see it as a badge of honor.

Your thoughts? 


PS:  Someone who follows me on Twitter asked him, why he is blocking certain Catholics from his feed.  The Cardinal then blocked him.  Very. Thin. Skin.

The Deacon Project - Arch. of Washington (Part One)

Over the last few months, I have spent a great deal of time on TWITTER.  

I swore that I would not, but I did.  I have sinned.

While on TWITTER, you could not help to notice a number of trends. 

Now, for those of you on TWITTER, the trends are not simply what people are hash-tagging, but who says what and how they respond to them.

For a while, there were a number of priests who came out against Joe Biden and were attacked for it. Some of these were posts on TWITTER and some were postings from homilies on YouTube.

Of those who attacked/criticized these priests:

  • Some accused these priests of suffering anxiety and or depression due to the COVID aka Wuhan Virus lock down.  
  • Some accused them of playing politics. 
  • Some accused them of not looking at "the seamless cloth" of social justice issues.  

The question is: Who conducted the attacks/criticism?

  • Many were just regular pew sitters.  Catholics like you and me.
  • Some were laity, who are actively involved in the Church.  Some paid by Catholic organizations, others who make their living dealing with various Church issues.
  • Some were folks that were probably/most likely not Catholic, but decided to have their say. 
  • Some are well known figures in the Catholic Church.

However, there were two groups that surprised me.  

The first group were Catholic "journalists and media" types.  And I will touch more about that in another posting, much later. 

The second group which really surprised me were Catholic Deacons.  Some were mildly critical, some were very sharp but veiled in their attacks/criticism.

Again, some of these were well known and some were not.  And so that lead me to decide to take upon myself what I like to call:

The Deacon Project

To be continued...

Now on Twitter

I had resisted and resisted to open a Twitter account.  

I have decided that I need to take the fight for our faith to this platform, as there are many who use it, and it is a way for those seeking to destroy the Church to know that there is opposition.

It is also a simply another venue to know what the opposition is doing.

Thank you.

Twitter - Shaddow Banning (Project Veritas)

Thought I would continue my support of Project Veritas, and have decided to post another of his videos.  BTW, I do not have a twitter account and never had one!

Project Veritas re Twitter

Since James O'Keefe has done outstanding work publicizing the evils of the abortion industry, and due to the fact that the mainstream media has ignored his recent work, I thought that I would help promote his work.

Do you use Twitter? How it protects Planned Parenthood!

Increasingly, media outlets and pro-choice politicians are labeling pro-life groups with these derogatory terms and openly calling on social media outlets to censor pro-life voices, especially those with increasingly large online followings.

Learn how Twitter is doing this to pro-life groups by going to this Washington Examiner article.

The Most "Open Minded" Are Really the BIGGEST HATERS

As many of you know, I try to focus on items that affect the Archdiocese of Washington from the view of the guy/gal in the pew. 

It was announced that the Pope would have a Twitter Account.  Now, I have looked into a Twitter Account both as part of getting the message of this blog out or even for my business.  However, I have not really found a compelling reason at this time.

However, once again, it is important to point out that those who claim to be the most open minded, most tolerant are really the most hateful and mean spirited.

If you think that the Pope is incorrect, then debate the ideas (within the 140 character limit).  If not, then you are not even worth the time it took to write their rants on Twitter.

I wonder if these twitter postings can be considered a hate crime?
