Many parishioners think that giving their tithe means they are entitled to hear a sermon they 'want' to hear. Jesus was never for sale, and was crucified for speaking out against people like Trump and MAGA.

Mr Ganley - the priest was TRYING to bring people - and the Nation - closer to salvation! Let those with ears, hear!
Another snowflake magatard who can dish out the crap but can't take it.
Someone please give that priest a medal!
As an atheist it seems that priest hit the nail directly on the head
It hurts to hear the truth! I hope the same message is being delivered at every mass he attends!
I've been in services that were thinly vailed as pro-Dumpster; never went back. I would sincerely listen to this priest.
Jesus was a liberal.
Old enough to remember when Mass was always a Kennedy Democrat campaign rally.
Love homilies & sermons that connect New Testament to present day. It is important to put Christ into a context we can understand. If you cannot see compassion for people & love for country as sacred & an enemy who would destroy it as the devil than you don't know or don't want to know sin.
Well I guess that guy would have walked out on Jesus preaching the Sermon of the Mount for sure
Go with God, Declan. Truth hurts. youtu.be/HnN9xvEijOY
Correct
So NOW he has a problem with religion/church/priest even vaguely bringing politics into their sermons. Also, MAGA is a cult. No one not even their priests/preachers can speak against him. Make it make sense!
Please find another Mass and a confessional asap
Comparing Trump to Satan is unfair. To Satan. Satan offered Jesus the whole world, if He would turn His back on God. But Trump didn't offer Zelensky anything to turn on his people. Trump attacked, threatened, lied to, mocked and tried to rob Zelensky. Compared to Trump, Satan was a class act.
Our Episcopal priest related Satan's temptation to power to those who imagine that they are more powerful and gifted than they are, and who look down on those whom they assume are not. He never mentioned Trump nor Musk, but I suspect most of us thought of them.
People across America are getting REALLY fed up with the treasonous felon’s dismantling of our nation and our democracy. That even includes priests. Maybe this clown needs to sit and do some soul searching and really HEAR what the priest is saying. Nothing about MAGA world is making anything better
christians are the best killers.
Declan is correct, it is unfair for the priest to malign Satan by comparing him to Trump.
Meanwhile evangelical ministers…
Funny how those well along that road paved with good intentions hate anyone who points out that they’re worshipping the wrong deity.
He’s all pissed off that a priest is preaching about government not doing the work of God and Christ during church services?? Holy CRAP!! The right leaning Nazi priests and pastors in other churches have been doing Satan’s work by spreading his hate and lies in churches FOR YEARS!! And THAT’S okay??
Declan needs to join a Christian Nationalist Church, they may be more of his ilk.
First time I've had cautious optimism about the Catholic Church in a long, LONG while. But then, gotta love Jesuits! ❤️
The Jesuits do not fool around.
Resistance to logic is futile 🖖
There are plenty of Evangelical churches to welcome this fascist.
Growing up Republican in SoDak,my Dad was LIVID after mass--the priest told us to vote for George McGovern! Dad said no priest should be pushing politics. I'm not a Catholic anymore. The Pope protecting priests and cardinals who were child molesters destroyed their moral authority, for me anyway.
He should read his bible, it foretells of exactly what the Priest is saying. Ubbbb
Denial in any way possible. Another brain donor, since he doesn't use his.
Guess he’s comfortably overlooked in the evangelical churches.
Leftie Jesuit??? That’s an oxymoron if ever I’ve heard one 😂😂 . What a knob
Every time I hear the word Jesuit, I think "Inquisition" though maybe enough time has passed?
Not enough time.
You know you lost the plot when Jesuits seem liberal
Dang... (excuse my slang) that Priest sounds more like a Right Winger. R's can't stand it when "Lefties" put the shoe on the other foot!
How does SpaceX call it? MAGA is in a Rapid Uncontrolled Disassembly? Literally NOBODY of the Western Allies is trusting the USA anymore. 💙💛 Slava Ukraini! 💙💛 Countries insulted by the cosplay emperor of ex-USA: 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇵🇱 🇬🇧 🇬🇱 🇩🇰
❄️
Where can I hear this sermon!? #MustListen
If he’s that upset that he thought of walking out, he should do some soul searching. The truth hurts.
I am trying to figure out what has taken Catholic clergy so long.
Yep
We all have choices. White men just have more- fellow.
Keep blowing it up George!…for real!..team Conway!!
Maybe an exorcist is called for.
I do think the priest’s homily was on the mark.
Lefty partisan Jesuits are rejected, but he’s still a member of a religious cult that has historically abused children for decades, especially at indigenous “schools”. GTFOH, Hypocrite.
It’s okay for evangelicals to campaign for him from the pulpit though. 🤷🏼♂️
It sounds like the priest even provided examples (aka evidence) as to why Trump sounded like Satan.
My dearly departed pastor used to say “when the truth gets told ain’t nobody mad but the devil”
Kinda represents a big part of the problem, this guy doesn't like what a religious leader says, so off to find one he can 'believe' in and justify his prejudices?! FFS...🤦♂️
Hey George Conway, Can someone please file a class action suit: Citizens of the USA v. Trump, Musk DOGE for the breach of our personal data?
There’s good reason that Holy Trinity was “packed…standing room only.”
Thanks George
Declan Ganley is no American
The old ‘I’m Catholic, so I’m better’
The Good News is the that many of us recognize the Truth… stupid & evil personified=dumpty💯%
They have no idea what morality is.
He should find a good Evangelical Christian church for what he wants to hear.
Truth hurts. Maybe study the faith he seems to follow? Does his religion support the actions currently taken by the country he live in?
People like this guy think religion is a buffet where you can choose the parts you like and pass on the others.
"I'm fine with lefty Jesuits until they make me uncomfortable about what I support which I have to justify somehow."
Just so we're clear, it's perfectly okay for ridiculous and radical evangelicals to preach persecution of non-white, non-cis men and women... or anyone who has a thought process, but it's not okay to preach against magats.
It's OK to speak of the government in church. It's NOT OK to speak of church in government. cc: Founding Fathers
I sure hope this was my former beloved church, Holy Trinity Catholic Church. It sounds right. And, they won't miss him.
Trump is satan! What an evil man!
How disgusting 🤮🤮🤮😡
I agree with the priest Trump is Satan
I’ve walked out for opposite reasons
But these guys are just fine with Southern Baptist and Mega Churches preaching from the pulpit.
so awesome, thanks for sharing Mr Conway. Maybe the church can save us :-)
More Religious leaders need to do this. Actually Practice what they Preach.
What a Christian lol
Just wait until he preaches about Revelation.
It would be interesting to hear that in a Mass. 🤔
Jesuits - The Marines of the Catholic Church !
I wonder if he is a regular or if he met any prophets yet in life ? The Dt claims to be connected to God as pointed up to heaven during his fist presidency and said it was so And all those who pray over him have convinced him he is the one to deliver the Billionaires another tax cut for sure
But the rightie political services are Ok?
Looking into that mirror was painful.
This is the only kind of homily any follower of Christ should be giving. Good to know some Christians have the courage to be Christian. Too many have given organized religion a bad name.
Well, comparing Trumpty-Dumpty, the pet-president of Felon Musk, to Satan, I will admit that it is a tad bit insulting... for Satan, that is.
Wonder what Declan would have to say if that "leftie Jesuit" (redundant, no? 😉) had compared DonOld to Jesus Christ?
Jesuits have moral courage. It’s priests like cardinal Dolan in New York who don’t have a moral compass. Pope Francis should get rid of him. At the first opportunity!
As a Catholic educated by Irish Christian brothers for 5 years in school, and later by jesuits for 5 years in university, I necessarily experienced & absorbed the tenacity of their intellect. Believe me when I say that they offer an outcome that’s good for one’s soul!
So heartily agree!!!
This was rampant here in the Phoenix diocese where there was actually promotion and encouragement to vote for Trump in this last election. One of the reasons I quit attending.
This guy doesn't have to find another "mass." He has to find another religion--the kind that doesn't mention Jesus at all.
I know someone who was at that Mass. The priest did NOT equate Trump to Satan; he did, however, equate Zelenskyy’s travails to Jesus’.
On the chance it was James Martin (in your recent tweets), I just followed him 🙌
It wasn’t, but James Martin is always a good follow!
I’m a Catholic surrounded by Catholic MAGAs, one of their complaints about the pope is “he’s political & the pope should never preach about politics” seems that it’s difficult for MAGAs to be called out by their religious leaders. Like a true cult, instead of looking inward they deflect.
Won’t be difficult for him. So many Catholic parishes are ultra-conservative now. They’ve driven so many from the Church
The games they play with themselves. Sir that priest is trying to help you. You are following Satan down the road because of your many deadly sins.
Notice he didn’t actually try to make an argument on the merits, just “no like Trump = bad”
The truth is often painful to hear. Poor guy. He is adrift now. Maybe he should consider Franklin Graham.
Priest was right. In better times Trump would be a permanent guest of the inquisition
Very Christlike of that “lefty Jesuit” He takes his vow seriously, I would say!
Why do I suspect this guy would have been fine if the Priest spent an hour comparing Gay and Trans people to Satin. We have been tolerating from the Church for fifty years to burn Gay people at the stake. I know who the Antichrist is and it always starts and ends an (r)
As we say here in Ireland 🇮🇪 'Thas man has more money than sense' tbh not too sure about his money!!!! We declined to elect him and his views to anything in Ireland 😜
I wonder how true this is? I mean, MAGA open their mouths, and lies fall out. He doesn't provide details, so he could be him trying to spur MAGAs against Catholics. Having grown up a Catholic in what is now MAGA country, there is a definite us vs. them mentality towards other religions.
I thought the “standing room only” made it a little suspicious.
Perhaps, this Jesuit's sermons are the reason for "standing room only".
Exactly. Too early for Easter and way past Christmas....sorry, a little Catholic humor. IYKYK
Declan probably also believes empathy is a sin.🙄
I bet he had no problems with southern Baptist preachers telling congregants to vote for Trump as the only way to save America’s soul or that Biden and Obama were demons. Funny how jesuits are “lefty” now.
I'm pretty sure Jesuits have been lefties for a minute.
Not sure id categorize any Catholic entity leftist. Do they happen to have more open ideas of social liberalism than Opus Dei or KofC? Sure. Leftist? Let us think on that.
Good point.
Jesus said the bad tree bears rotten fruit, which could be translated to Everything the 🍊 💩 touches dies.
Educated by those "lefty" Jesuits. Protested the Viet Nam war with the Berrigan brothers
Says everything about American Christians that he was offended and left the sermon.
If it looks like Satan, sounds like Satan and acts like Satan…
All of what you have written is so true. I believe Satan, (Muskrat and his puppet boy-toy Dumb-Dumb), came back with his followers from Hell and is trying to take us down. Satan, it’s not going to happen! You picked the wrong 💙 🏳️🌈🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦 people to fuck with!
It's true. He is the embodiment of Satan. I believe that. He is, in the same way Hitler was. He has no goodness, anywhere. His intent is totally evil.
First time I think I’ve ever said this… Priest was correct.
Meanwhile, in evangelical churches...
If he said Trump was Jesus he would have stayed for the whole mass. Politics have no place in churches unless they want to be taxed.
#SeparationOfChurchAndState
Religion sucks
There are far more evangelicals, etc telling congregation to vote GOP because dems are evil/trump is "chosen".
Out of interest, which one of the compared characters is he offended for?
He would have been fine if the priests message was the reverse of that... which we know has been and is true now in many cases across the country.
a private mass, tailored to your fascist views. get yours today!
These fake "catholics" who know nothing about the Social Doctrine of the Church. What do they really believe?
I don't disagree with the message, but religions shouldn't be pontificating about politics if they want to keep their tax free status. For either side.
But Jesus “pontificated about politics” during his time. Ditto every prophet that preceded him and followed him. Christianity grew when Roman emperors decided to make it the official religion of Rome. Where there are societal ills, the church is obliged to shine light on it & speak truth to power
I'm fine with them doing it, but they still shouldn't be tax free. It's a rule for a reason. We shouldn't embrace the Republican idea that there are "rules for thee and not for me".
If I had heard sermons like that, I might still be a church-goer.
Huh! and just last fall they were singing his praises.
I wondering if that priest can perform an exorcism on him.
Something about hit dogs holler.
This time I will agree with a priest … solid analysis.
That priest was right, trump is Satan
That congregation isn’t missing much
People need to do their own research, but in Matthew we have one commandment that talked about how to act. It basically boils down to treating everyone as you want to be treated. Common decency gets you to the same place. Exactly who is Trump treating like he wants to be treated?
He’s more luke 14:26, like American Christians.
Billionaires
Catch up, dude. www.thedailybeast.com/watch-trumps...
Here's his Russian connection. There's always a Russian connection with these idol worshipers.
Love the Jesuits
Glad to have the Jesuits on our side.
This guy doesn't even realize he is one of his demons.
Conway nails it. Thanks.
One of the first times I’ve agreed with the Catholic church.
Maybe he should find a different religion or start one with Trump as the deity?
Has Mr. Ganley read any books on Catholic Social Justice? Perhaps he can acquaint himself with the only reason for government according to Church teaching. It is to defend and promote the common good in civil society. When an institution veers from its mission, it becomes diabolical
I think Declan Glaney described for us how vampires truly don’t see their reflection in a mirror.
Brava!
Sir… for the last time… THIS IS WENDYS!!! 😂
Sounds like that priest is a true Catholic. Almost makes me want to attend mass myself.
If he can’t see what is in plain sight, he really belongs in hell with DJT!
Completely missed the point, that guy.
Declan Ganly is Irish & a right wing Nazi fake Christian. He tried to get elected in Ireland but he got a good kick in the arse & sent packing back to the US. He's another Hitler.
He also tried to get Ireland out of the EU. I remember being in a restaurant in Tuam many years ago and him coming in to eat there. If I'd known then what I know now...
I wonder if he a practicing piano mover from up on high If so I bet he’d give many pointers in proper grip & balance control & x & y control You never know when time arises in a jam when moving large objects could find hardy & only a racist certified piano mover is only allowed in WH
You're correctI had forgotten that. He's another pathetic idiot full of his own self importance just like Farage
Those were the actual lectionary readings for yesterday. The priest goes with the correct readings for the day. The fact that they brought trump to everyone's mind should be telling. My priest didn't name him, but we were all thinking the same thing.
He needs to find another god
Sorry Bud but Trump is Satan!
A Corrupting Evil "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." John 8:44
a horse is a horse of course of course
The priest was 100% correct!
Yes, separation of church and state should go both ways. I agree with the part about Satan though.
If I was still a Christian I would definitely think Trump is the false idol the Bible warned people about … almost makes me believe again
Oh wait. I get it. His feelings were hurt that Trump = Satan was the sermon in church. I'm sorry. Wait.....no. Thank you. Now it's ok because I thanked him for that one time with the thing..... But, are we sure Satan is as EVIL as Donold Trump? Hmmmmm?
Donald Trump is *WAY* too stupid to apply for Satan's job.
Lil men can stand the truth
Amazing how they're more triggered by a "leftie" sermon than they are by all the anti-Christian, anti-Biblical hurt and destruction Trump is inflicting on the weak and defenseless.
I would have compared Trump and Musk to Satan!
I attended catholic mass that the priest in thinly veiled messages telling the congregation to vote republicans. I think that’s worse than what GT priest said
So he's ok when Cardinal whatshisface in NYC speaks out in support of trump, but he calling trump out is beyond the pale?
I know that Mr. Ganley isn't on Blue Sky, but the question I would ask - does he think that people like Mike Johnson (and several other 'Christian' Reps/Senators) and his (their) hypocrisy, lies and 'holier than thou' attitude is winning people to Christ? I would shout an emphatic NO!
Stop Bellini Mussolini. 3 special elections 4 control of the House! DONATE to FL- 6 Josh Weil(www.joshweil.us), FL-1 Gay Valmont(gayforcongress.com) & NY-21 Blake Gendebien(blakegendebienforcongress.com) TAKE BACK THE HOUSE!, IMPEACH KRASNOV! Expel Nazi Sycophant Traitors from Congress! ¡PLZ REPOST!
highlighting antichrist like behavior leads people away from salvation? Gonna need to explain that one, boss.
🤨😢🙁
Hahaha the priest was right on!!!
interesting use of "the Pale" here.
Ah... Religion shopping...
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

The Eight Beatitudes need to be posted everywhere, especially in Christian churches and schools.
That’s the problem with today’s Christians, they don’t believe in the teachings of Christ. They question why Christ would want to feed and take care of the poor when he could have ruled the world.
The cognitive dissonance was apparently too much for him to bare.
He doesn't realize... Jesus was the original leftie. :)
Hey, look, that makes 3 American Christians I know of who probably have read and understood the New Testament in the way I hoped all of them had.
cherry-picking *christians who don't follow the teachings of Christ, prefer that social justice issues don't interfere with their prefect kneel profile.
sigh... pErfect.
Declan probably shouldn't bother with Mass anymore anyway.
Christian Nationalists don’t understand the Gospel … shocking
The Mass Delusion of MAGA
Oh those Jesuits! Always too liberal. 😃
Jesuits are living up to their namesake. They live basic lives and walk the walk instead of flaunt and have hollow faith.
Sounds like the kind of Catholicism I grew up with. Sounds like the kind of Catholicism I taught in Catholic schools. One of the most puzzling aspects of Trump era is that SO many Catholics have rallied around him. This, I will NEVER understand.
You are not alone!
🤣🤣🤣
thank you Holy Trinity
If only the @usccbofficial.bsky.social spoke with the same moral clarity. But alas, ETTD.
I would go to that church and I left the Catholic Church years ago!
Priests are just like Krasnov, they tell you lies & expect you to be subservient & obey them. There is no truth in those that gain power through lies. Revolution is now! 🌊🇺🇸🇺🇦🌈🟧💙
Huh? Did you even read that?
Anybody that believes a non-existent deity is effecting their life is weak & ultimately can be lead any direction. If any god was real, it would have showed it's self long before now. 🌊🇺🇸🇺🇦🌈🌍🟧💙
Fine. Your opinion. But evangelicals are not listening to you.
Someone should tell Declan that The Felin IS just like the devil. I don’t think god is in favor of killing little kids by withholding formula or vaccinations, or medical (read cancer) research just to get some person living rent free in his head, back.
Poor Declan Ganley posted this, not because he disagrees with this priest but because he desperately wants to curry favour with the dictator Trump. He made sure to post it for all of MAGA to see and admire. This is what a dictatorship encourages and the weak will succumb.
He’d have left offended by the Beatitudes, as well.
🙏🏾
Dude, he isn’t the only one drawing comparisons-some with more faint penciled in lines than others- the anti-Christian, anti- humanity practices and efforts of Trump’s administration. It’s almost like these learned faith leaders are really bothered by someone for some reason. 🤔
i think the other mass he wants to find is a black mass
Declan doesn’t walk with Christ
Even as a recovering Catholic, I'm pretty proud of that priest.
Ditto.
Bravo that priest!! Unfortunately we have a very right wing one at our church!
Declan should visit the South where my parish couldn’t be bothered to pray or even mention (other than the liturgy “for Francis our Pope” and had VERY LARGE SIGNS IN FRONT OF CHURCH DURING ELECTION
Such heresy, comparing Trump to Satan! I’d sue if I were Satan.
seen at that other place, about 4yrs.5 ago (see also www.snopes.com/fact-check/i...)
The truth hurt this guy to relisten to the venom that his guy spews every day! Yeah to Christian values. He should listen to the priest and pass message to the WH
Jesuits aren't the only ones he has contempt for: www.irishtimes.com/business/202...
Yesterday’s appointed lectionary reading from the Gospel of Luke on the Temptations of Jesus is the absolute perfect and obvious counter to our power-hungry, grifter president. I applaud this priest.
Would he be equally incensed if he went to an evangelical church where they are worshiping tRump as the third coming & where they demonized Biden (a truly devote Catholic)?
You are not a bright man Declan. The Priest however is Dead Right. Please keep going to this church Declan. You will eventually then understand truth. God will love you much better than he does now because you are an idiot who is not using your God given brain or behaving like a Good Christian.
