He's a deacon and he called St. John Chrysostom an αnтι-ѕємιтє?

I hope for everyone's sake, Sigismund, that if your parish read his Paschal Homily last weekend, that you didn't need a trigger warning. Shame on you.
We did, of course.  St. John is a SAINT, not a Pope speaking Ex Catheda.  Being a saint doesn't make one infallible.

What does it take to get banned around here, if TWO calumnies against a saint - committed out of love for Christ's enemies - don't do it?

You will get banned before Poche will
I have often wondered  that myself.  I have been here for a long time, although for the past few years I have rarely posted, mostly becasue I quickly tire of nonsense like this.  I don't understand why Matthew hasn't banned me.

Who said anything about infallibility?

St. John is a saint, and not just a saint, but a Doctor and Father of the Church; the greatest of the Eastern Fathers and second only to St. Augustine among all the Doctors of the Church Fathers, east or west.

So why on earth should I question the Golden-Mouthed Doctor's stance on the Jews, especially as it's in accord with Our Lord Himself, St. Paul, St. John the Beloved, and the overwhelming consensus of popes and saints and doctors across 19 centuries of Catholic history? Why should I take Abe Foxman's perspective on this subject over his? Why should anybody?

Why do you?

I question one statement he made.  However, sine you love statements from St. John, chew on these:
"If you won't recognize Christ in the beggar at the church door, you will never recognize Him in the Chalice. "
"The extra coat in your closet is stolen from the backs of the poor. "
Forgive me if I am wrong, but I expect you, like most here, are a trump supporter.  How do these statements from The Golden Mouthed Doctor square with Trumpism.?

Are you serious, Sig? This argument might make sense if the alternative to Trump was not militantly pro-infanticide. Not to mention most other social issues. If you want to say both sides are bad, OK. But I don't think most here are Trump supporters, I think they mainly prefer him to Hillary because of abortion and immigration.
