The United States and the world at large is living through tumultuous times with a cruel, inhumane President who issues lunatic utterances on a regular basis, undermining American Democracy, the rule of law, international stability, and threatening American National Security and World Peace.
The rant and hate promoted by Donald Trump on Easter, apparent willingness to commit war crimes on the people of Iran, and using the most obscene, foul language, should be an alarm bell, that leads to use of the 25th Amendment to remove Donald Trump from the White House.
At the same time, the world is inspired by the first American in the Papacy, Pope Leo XIV, who is promoting a humane, compassionate, sane view of Christianity, wishing to promote tolerance, open mindedness, and international peace.
It is clear that tens of millions of Americans, whether Catholic or not, are saluting the Pope, and wishing that he could restore the faith of Americans and foreign nations in the stability, morality, ethics, and common sense of the American Presidency, which has suffered massively in its reputation through the actions and statements of the President of the United States.
The idea that right wing Christian pastors promote the idea that Donald Trump can be compared to Jesus Christ is a totally crazy and dangerous concept. And the idea that such pastors justify the lack of compassion and tolerance of immigrants primarily of color from outside Europe is a clear indication of the crisis that exists in Christianity.
Instead of saluting political leaders such as Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, and Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock for their true depiction of the teachings of Jesus Christ, we see instead promotion of hate and division, and even ridicule of other religions, a true cancer on the idea of interfaith dialogue.
