On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “AC360,” Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe defended the church’s migration service refusing to resettle new migrants from South Africa and stated that “if you look at this decision, this is really about people who have jumped the line.”
Rowe said, “[L]ook at the thousands of people fleeing war and violence, people who are waking up dead around the world, people who have helped our military that are being left in camps on a daily basis while white Afrikaners have been fast-tracked. You’re right. It is about need. And if you look at this decision, this is really about people who have jumped the line.

how many of the millions of illegals who "jumped the (border) line" are being given succor by the Episcopal churches? No taxpayer $$ to any Church !!
Just like actors and artists, if their work is so important they can find patrons to pay for it.

You referring to that line of 12 to 15 million ILLEGAL alien gate crashers I suppose. You realize of course being granted amnesty means they are just in a different line for processing as opposed to the afore mentioned "illegal" line which the majority will just skip out of anyway?

Can anybody be more obsessed about skin than that. They are racists to the core. Absolutely no concern about circumstances. If your skin is white, you must be sacrificed.

Nonsense. Unlike Biden's ungrateful "invitees," the Afrikaners entered the US legally after being VETTED. and receiving permission to enter. They have no connection to human traffickers. Meanwhile, Democrat drama queens are losing sleep over an unvetted Biden wife-beating gang-member "guest" who has thankfully been removed from our soil. Dems are more upset he is locked up in a high-security prison, than they are about his criminals behavior before he was taken off our streets and shipped out of our country.

I don't recognize this Bishop's brand of Christianity at all. While he may have a point that those he mentions in his interview need help, he should have been pushing for them to come here much before now if he's so concerned about them. But mr. biden was not interested in assisting true refugees; instead he invited the hordes to invade our country with promises of free stuff coming their way. They were used to achieve what Cloward-Piven was pushing in order to destroy the country prior to the reset they had planned. True refugees would not be coming here to game the system; they would be those who would quickly assimilate, hopefully becoming citizens, and ultimately benefit the country.
As we all know, democrats care nothing about people or policies that are a benefit to us ~ just the opposite.
This Bishop was more than happy to assist the invaders the entire time when he could have used his pulpit to advocate for actual refugees.
He chose to keep silent but NOW because he's another one with TDS he opens his mouth.
He should just shut up.

The Africaners came over as Whole Family Units; not armies of single, military-age men with gang tattoos.
The Africaners were VETTED for criminal record before admission, unlike Biden’s illegal “future Democrats.”
The Only reason the Africaners are migrating is fear that SA will really proceed to “Kill the Boer” as their President exhorts.

Apparently he got too much push back with the church’s first excuse so he had to come up with a new one. Sorry, bishop. We aren’t buying it.

So, Bishop Rowe, you're just going to fold up your Migration Ministries tent and go home. How charitable of you.

I've watched podcasts recently of Albertan separatists. One of them is an attorney with more than a little immigration experience. He believes the trickle of white refugees from SA will become a flood of up to 2 million. What will these woke, not-so-Christian ministers do then? Their heads will explode!

Did the fifty or so Afrikaners who just entered the USA ever ask for help from the Episcopal Church?
The truth of the matter is, the leftist and progressive Democrats do not want any White immigrants or refugees to be allowed to enter the USA. Since the Democrat game plan on all forms of immigration, both illegal and legal, is to restrict all future immigration to the USA to aliens who can be categorized as members of some minority group in accordance with Democrat identity politics, and to use all future immigration as a partisan political tool to permanently change the population demographics of the USA to where the majority of people in the country are considered to be members of some domestic or foreign origin minority group, with the country being considered to be forever on a minority-majority country, with the incoming foreigners being transitioned to be supporters of the leftist and progressive Democrat political agenda, ultimately in numbers large enough as leftist and progressive Democrat voters to keep the leftist and progressive Democrats in permanent political power. There is no other reason why the partisan Democrats have been saying that the entire Black African populations of the Congo and Sudan should be brought to the USA before another White immigrants is allowed to immigrate to the USA. That is not a good omen for the future USA as it looks like the leftist and progressive Democrats would be happy to turn the USA into another minority-majority future South Africa like hellhole!

So not only is he a political hack, he's a liar as well. So he fits perfectly well on the left. But their tax-exempt status needs to be canned.

There are a few people in the world who are actually worse or more evil than Jeffrey Epstein, among those few are all the Paedophile Episcopal Bishops! So Sean Rowe can Kiss my you know what, but then again he would sooo enjoy that, I think I'll decline the offer.

They've only been fast-tracked to the front of people who are really just economic migrants. There are no wars or tyrannical regimes behind the majority of people asking for asylum after they cross our southern border.

Jumping the line ? White South Africans have been slaughtered for at least 10 years, maybe 20 or more.

If I were even a moderately conservative Episcopalian, I would leave. This has crossed the line. The Episcopal Bishops will force the church to lose a lot of members. We were members of our Methodist Church here and left because our Bishops tried to force woke demands on us. It caused a mass exodus with churches disaffiliating by the hundreds. I think they thought they were following the leftist, socialist trend at the time and it was a good opportunity to entirely change the church and move it far left. They are going to have to sell some empty churches for cash which will keep the UMC afloat but not forever. Those of us who left were the long time supporters and generous tithers. The same will happen to the Episcopalians.

Thank God I'm not an Episcopal......not always happy with the edicts of the Catholic Church...but I'm never ashamed that I'm a Catholic ...the crazy leader of the Episcopal church is condemning 50 Afrikaners for migrating to America for a better life....now who does she think she is....if you want to determine who comes to America or who doesn't...then run for office and win...THEN maybe you can set country policy...for now lecture your shrinking flock....

Is that guy brain dead? What have the 11 million illegals who have come here and he is protecting. They didn't do it legally and they are hardened criminals. The people from South Africa are refugees, allowed into our country under that program and there for here legally and are taking their rightful place in line. The Episcopal Church lost their way when they started performing marriages for homosexuals. Instead of involving themselves in trying to destroy what President Trump is accomplishing they need to read what it says in the Bible about homosexuality.

This displays the twisted thinking we are getting from the left. How can 25% of the nation see up is downing down is up. With such it is most difficult if not impossible to reason things out. They seem to push violence as their only answer.

Yes, they've jumped in front of economic migrants. Which is how actual asylum from genocide and persecution is supposed to work.
