Before we begin, I am a generational Episcopalian. I am imperfect and a woeful sinner. I would be a broken man if not for the Holy Spirit who infuses me with joy and happiness and frees me from anxiety. The joy I have felt within the pews of my Episcopal church is incomparable to any sensation I’ve ever felt. Yet, I am susceptible to suggestions at odds with the creator of my joy.  One must be ever vigilant.

Extreme Left-wing politics, totally anti-thetical to the tenets of Christianity have taken over the Episcopal Church. I’ve told many a minister that I could give a sermon every Sunday and nobody would know if I were a Democrat or Republican, a conservative or a liberal. Politics is a false and divisive god. We need the divine to dwell within us. We don’t need misguided political lectures from the pulpit.

Why are so many people, especially rank and file Episcopalians so upset at Bishop Budde’s supercilious “talk down” to President Trump? Like all left-wing radicals, she assumes those who don’t agree with her insane politics are lesser human beings. Thus, she must virtue-signal her self-appointed superiority in a public forum. How many times have we Episcopalians seen this haughty display from our pulpits? Too many. A fundamental characteristic of the Left is one dimensional, overly emotional thinking. How does she know Donald Trump is not empathetic to those she champions? I believe he is more so than she. Likely, he like me, feels empathy for murderers, rapists, bank robbers, etc. They are all God’s children with souls, but this does not mean that there should not be tough civic remedies to prevent bad behavior and misguided policies.

I will go ahead and say it! I believe Bishop Budde perpetuates evil and indeed may even be under the influence of the Evil One himself. I’m not suggesting she is Regan in the Exorcist, projectile vomiting and speaking backwards in Latin, but I am suggesting she at a minimum is being duped, and a “useful” idiot of the world’s greatest manipulator. She has a long history of being a radical neo-Marxist, the absolute ideology of evil, whose namesake had an obsessive admiration for the Prince of Darkness himself, all while hating Christianity.

It seems that a great many Episcopal clergy think of themselves as great oracles of truth sent to us from the heavens.  They conflate neo-Marxism with Christianity, and thus the god they represent is not the monotheistic Judeo- Christian god, it is the pagan feel good god of vacuous and anti-intellectual thinking. This is the clever liar god, the god of darkness and destruction. The god that wants to confuse and disorient Christians to believe policies that will lead to human destruction. And this is exactly what Mariann Budde is all about. This goes for her sheepish followers as well. This god hates the rank-and-file members of the Church, the ones who believe traditional tenets of Christianity, and has instructed his handpicked apostles (Budde and others) to drive them away. He has been staggeringly successful. In 1960, Episcopalians made up approximately 2% of the entire nation. Today, they make up .4% (4/10s) of the U.S. population, and most of these folks are not in the pews on Sunday.

Why is the richest denomination, with the most beautiful churches and influential members in a 50-year death spiral? Because evil has entered the vestibule, the nave, the pulpit and the administrative offices. You see Lucifer is a clever liar. He knows how to push the right buttons. Since the mid-60s, he’s been whispering in the Church’s ear, “unthinkingly radical leftism is the essence of Christianity.”  Yet, unthinking radical leftism inevitably causes societal destruction and great human misery, exactly what the Prince of Darkness wants for the world.

Is Bishop Budde under the influence of Beelzebub? She sure mimics his most successful tactics. She couches her admonitions in a blanket of love and empathy, but the result of what she preaches is misery, death and destruction. “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves (Matthew 7:15).” She praised the George Floyd race riots, even as these terrorists were trying to burn down St. John’s Church in front of the White House. She’s all about coddling criminals and blaming the law abiding for the underachievement of the underclass. These aren’t Christian principles; these are the opposite, the policies of envy and hatred, the very foundation of Marxism. Where does all this lead? Societal destruction! She’s for open borders. What’s the result of this policy? Sex trafficking, fentanyl epidemics, drug cartels, overburdened communities and fiscal ruin. It is the Cloward-Piven dream of self-induced fiscal annihilation.  She’s a DEI queen, and as a result she hurts the people she advocates for by enabling them to be victims. A society not built of meritocracy is headed to dysfunctional ruin. She promotes an ahistorical view of the past, removing “offensive” stained glass from the Cathedral. She’s a gun control advocate.  An unarmed citizenry is a world racing towards totalitarian control of the citizenry. See Keir Starmer’s Britain.  She’s a professional fear spreader, the neo-Marxist’s favorite trick, ignoring the beautiful and fulfilling words of Matthew 6:25 telling us not to fear and to place our hearts and minds in the heavenly father’s love and protection.

What was most striking, and perhaps the clearest manifestation of pure, unadulterated evil were her comments about transgender children. A fundamental Christian principal is that God created man and woman. There are trillions of cells in a man’s body, and they are all different from the trillions of cells in a woman’s body. The sophistry to convince any thinking person that there are more than two sexes can only be a notion put into people’s heads by the universe’s most accomplished and skillful liar, Lucifer himself. By acknowledging the farcical myth that there are more than two so called “genders,” ( a misuse of the word gender), Budde claims she is smarter than God. She exalts herself to be higher than God. What celestial force has the power to create such hubris within her cranium, such hutzpah, such delusion?

Gender dysphoria is a social disease. A recent study states that there has been a 50-fold increase in Gender Dysphoria in Britain over the past 10 years. Clearly, it is nothing more than a social fashion like so many of history’s delusional trends. But what is so evil about this trend is Church leaders like Budde who encourage and enable children to hate themselves and believe they are something other than what God created.  She creates confused and psychopathic kids, who destroy their wonderous, intelligently designed bodies that God gave them by mutilating their sexual organs and taking dangerous, organ destroying hormonal drugs. It is Josef Mengele sick, and she and leaders of the Church enthusiastically endorse this evil. 80% of transgender patients who undergo lifelong permanent sex changes attempt suicide. An alarming number of mass murderers have been “trans” even though they make up a tiny percentage of the population. The evidence of this evil is right smack in front of everyone’s eyes, and the evil emanates from within the walls of Budde’s Episcopal church.

One hears a lot of misguided mishmash from Episcopalian pulpits. Like our universities, Episcopal seminaries find weak minded candidates to teach watered down feel good-isms, instead of a bold and defiant advocacy of traditional Christian precepts. The wine and cheese set does not want to offend anyone, besides they think “talking about Satan is what those redneck denominations do, and “we are so much more enlightened than those rubes. For god sakes, we live in Georgetown, not Appalachia!” Yet, there are no more numerous refrains in scripture than those that remind us that we live in a world of spiritual warfare between the forces of good and evil. In Ephesians 6:10-18, the Apostle Paul tells us to put on the “armor of God” to stand against the wily ways of the devil.

The Evil One searches for candidates that can do the most damage to God’s order. He found an excellent recruit in Bishop Budde.
