Texas Lt. Gov. Patrick: The real way to address racism is for Americans to "accept Jesus Christ"

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said on "Fox News @ Night" Wednesday that the real way for Americans to address racism is to "accept Jesus Christ," saying that "we need a culture change," which requires a character change, which requires a change of heart, which requires one to turn to God.

"You cannot love your fellow man if you don't love God," Patrick said. "And we have a country where we've been working really hard, particularly on the left, to kick God out."

Quote
"For me, as I look at this, and it breaks my heart, what I'm seeing — from the original crime that was committed by the police officer on George Floyd to what's happening in our streets. We have racism in this country, Shannon, but it's really an issue of love. It's loving God — you cannot love your fellow man if you don't love God. And we have a country where we've been working really hard, particularly on the left, to kick God out.

We need a culture change to address this racism. You cannot change the culture of a country until you change the character of mankind, and you can't change that unless you change the heart. And for billions of us on the planet, we believe you can't do that unless you accept Jesus Christ or unless you accept God. God has been left out of this equation through all of this and we need tremendous healing. We cannot heal through commissions and blue-ribbon panels and more laws. We can only heal ourselves if we really reach out and love one another."

  • It is far better, and in accord with the divine Mind, to accept Our Lord Jesus Christ in his One True Catholic Church, but making allowance for the regrettable fact that not everyone is going to go that far, I fail to see what is wrong with what the lieutenant governor is proposing.

  • As far as I am aware, he is the only governmental authority during this riot that has publicly stated the need to turn to God.

  • Is he protestant? If so,
    he should take his own advice and cease being an enemy of God.

    By their fruits we shall know them.
    He speaks for God and for charity.
    Let us pray for him.

    Let us also pray for our fellow Catholics who, having received the gift of the fullness of the Fatih, still lack charity.

  • I quoted the teaching of the Church.  How is this not charitable?
    We should pray that Traditional Catholics rid themselves of liberalism.

    Extract:  (See attached pdf.)

    2 John 1:9-11

    Whosoever revolteth, and continueth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that continueth in the doctrine the same hath both the Father and the Son. If any man come to you and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, nor say to him, God speed you: for he that saith to him, God speed you, communicateth with his wicked works
    "In His wisdom," says St. Gregory, "almighty God preferred rather to bring good out of evil than never allow evil to occur."

    No Catholic Congressman has stood up for God.
    Some Congressman stands up for God and you call him an enemy.
    If he is your enemy, Jesus commands you to pray for him.
    Matthew 5:44-45
    You have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thy enemy. [44] But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you: [45] That you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven, who maketh his sun to rise upon the good, and bad, and raineth upon the just and the unjust.

  • How does quoting the Church’s teachings amount to a lack of charity?
    How does quoting and imitating the saints amount to a lack of love of neighbor?
    I recommend the book “Liberalism is a sin” to re-boot your mind on this topic.

  • Morgan Freeman has a good answer to RACISM ...
    QUIT TALKING ABOUT IT.
    .
    Problem.  The media keeps talking about it.  The
    musicians keep writing about it (with violent music).
    The universities keep teaching it.
    .
    Now it's in our face again with the George Floyd
    incident.  And ... show us the complete video, not
    just the last 3 minutes ... or quit talking about it.

    This is surprising, that a politician says accept Jesus Christ, they always say just God, which could mean anything, the Masonic god, the Muslim god, the Jєωιѕн god,
