Cancel Culture In Catholic Church Has ‘Got To Be Exposed’: Defrocked Priest Who Ripped Biden Speaks Out | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Catholic priest Father Frank Pavone fired back Monday night after reportedly being defrocked by the Vatican for political reasons, charging that his dismissal was due to cancel culture in the Catholic Church that needs "to be exposed."

    Pavone, who is the founder of Priests for Life, has become known for blasting President Biden and Democrats on social media.

    The Catholic News Agency (CNA) obtained a letter from Archbishop Christophe Pierre to U.S. bishops that claimed Pavone was dismissed for his social media activity and "persistent disobedience of the lawful instructions of his diocesan bishop." In an email to the CNA, Pavone said that the news outlet had learned of the move before he had.

    On Monday, Pavone spoke with Fox News host Laura Ingraham about the news.

    "This is actually the culmination of 21 years of abuse by church authorities to me and to my ministry despite the fact that we help the Vatican," he said. "We help to run some of the operations out of the pope's mission to the United Nations. We help the secretary of state with international pro-life issues. We run the largest ministry for healing after abortion, for which Pope Francis has personally encouraged me to keep going on it. We do all kinds of other pro-life work which many of our viewers are familiar."

    Pavone then attributed his apparent dismissal to cancel culture. A 2020 tweet from Pavone referred to "supporters of this goddamn loser Biden and his morally corrupt, America-hating, God hating Democrat party."

    "Why are they doing this?" he asked. "A lot of it obviously is connected with the cancel culture that comes against supporters of President Trump and critics of the Democrat Party and we're only gonna get louder about that. We're not going to be silenced."

    Pavone added that he would continue to be a leader in the pro-life movement.

    "My vocation is to be a priest and to be a full-time pro-life leader and I don't intend to walk away from either one of those," he stated. Pavone also said he would appeal to the pope to reverse the decision.

    "If the pope signs off on something, what they mean is there's nobody in the church above the pope, we all understand this. But that doesn't mean there's no way to change this. The pope himself can reverse it, the next pope can reverse, and the people - I'm appealing to the people of God to continue working with us and show their support for this work of saving lives and healing hearts," he said.

    "It's a cancel culture in the church. It's got to be exposed and it's got to be resisted," Pavone concluded.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?

  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.

  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.

  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Considering how abjectly corrupt and civilly abusive the Left has become regarding the corrosive effect of their elected leaders; their entrenched and ruling bureaucracy; employing their failed Education Industry as Indoctrinators; their collusive private sector operators, such as the terminally discredited Legacy Media and Big Tech censorship of Free Speech: What will be the best course forward for hardworking Middle Americans, including the Patriot Class?

  Withdraw from society, go underground and plan for a resurgence when it is feasible to do so.

  Work within the confines of better policy by the People's government, once good sense and sanity is restored in the electorate at large, to achieve such.

  Are you a crazy, nut-job Insurrectionist? Everything is perfect within our plan to achieve our intended goals for the Socialist Left.

  Secession to form a true Constitutional Republic.
