#ReclaimHolyWeek: #BlackLivesMatter Activists Protest During Holy Week

Holy Week is the most somber and significant week for Christians, commemorating the suffering and death of Jesus Christ, and culminating into celebration of the Resurrection of their Lord. Holy Week, 2015, has been dismal for American Christians, as they have been smeared and vilified in social media due to Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

Oh, but the Left has now started a new front in the war for their domination of the American soul.

Enter #ReclaimHolyWeek. Because #BlackLivesMatter. And the death of Jesus Christ is equivalent to those of Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin and Eric Garner. Or something.

Yes, black activists have decided to hijack the entire Easter weekend, starting with Good Friday and progressing through Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday. No respite for you, people of Caucasia! You will be made to care!

On Good Friday they showed up on the steps of the Supreme Court, waving crosses with the names of their designated martyrs.

At the website of the group Fellowship of Reconciliation, a self-described interfaith organization which claims its mission is “to organize, train, and grow a diverse movement that welcomes all people of conscience to end structures of violence and war, and create peace through the transformative power of nonviolence,” a clergy member of the organization wrote in his Good Friday message:

Every other day in America is Good Friday — death at the hands of the state. It happens so often that the news of such a tragedy elicits a rather ordinary response: “They killed another one.” As the death toll rings throughout Christendom’s past, state violence is ever present. Ferguson — America’s Nazareth — has given birth to a new theology at work in the world. The irrelevance of the church was made evident on West Florissant — the Tahrir Square of the Midwest.

He continued with words that many Christians would consider blasphemous:

To strip Jesus’s cross of its political content is to continue the lie that black lives do not matter. For Jesus — a first century nigger — who lead a love rebellion against the Empire and was crucified.

On Holy Saturday a Twitter discussion comparing “the cross, the resurrection, and the criminal justice system” was held.

It brought out comments like this:

And this:

But it’s not over. More activism will be coming on Sunday.

Because nothing speaks of the love of Jesus more than the Left creating political theater to serve their cause and further berate those who follow Christ.
