Before you get too excited about Neil Gorsuch
Like many folks I’m overjoyed that Obama and Hillary are not in the Whitehouse. Also, so far Trump has kept or pursued most of his campaign promises. I agree with and support most of what he has done so far and is planning to do.
However, we should never be so distracted by all the hype and excitement that we are willfully ignorant to the reality of the agendas that are moving forward behind the scenes.
We should not get so caught up in blindly supporting what we want to believe that we fail to see reality.
While the nomination of Neil Gorsuch may look like a win for constitutional conservatism on the surface, it doesn’t take much scratching below the surface to find some concerning indicators.
He attends St. John’s Episcopal Church in Boulder which is anti-gun, anti-trump, and pro-homosexual, “inclusive”, promotes environmentalism, and is led by a female rector. Their website promotes every social justice and liberal cause in between Ignatian contemplative/centering prayer, spiritual formation, and labrynths.
St John’s Episcopal Church – Boulder

St. John’s Episcopal Church is led by a pastor who proudly attended the anti-Trump Women’s March in Denver the day after the President’s inauguration
Rev. Susan Springer has said she is pro-gay marriage and offers blessings to same-sex couples
Another member of the clergy is outspoken about the need for gun control
The church’s Rev. Ted Howard also signed a letter slamming the ‘disrespectful rhetoric’ directed at Islam as Trump floated a ban on Muslim immigrants
Church authorities also appear to be strongly in favor of environmental initiatives and added solar panels to the roof because of ‘climate crisis’
With Gorsuch, there may be some wins in the areas of pro-life and not forcing companies to pay for abortion – which would be great. However, the real threat is the criminalization of Biblical Christianity which is the sodomite agenda.
Trump has already committed to renew Obama’s pro-LGBT executive orders and Pence has defended the decision.

Also, it turns out Betsy DeVos is not as conservative as portrayed in that she supports much of the homosexual agenda and has opposed Tea Party Republicans.
DeVos is not as conservative on social issues as you think

The courts are already sympathetic to the LGBT agenda at the expense of religious freedom – there is no indication that Trump, Pence, or Gorsuch will slow down that agenda.
In spite of being billed as the “first protestant” nominated to the Supreme Court in years, he was raised a catholic and attended Jesuit education at Georgetown Preparatory School.
Also, the modern Episcopalian is not much different than catholicism even to the point that the episcopal archbishop has made a commitment for full unity between the episcopal church and rome.
We already know that Trump was educated in Catholic/Jesuit Fordham University
Also, the vice president was raised Catholic, Pence served as an altar boy, went to a parochial school, and still considers himself to be a “Charismatic Catholic” and “Evangelical Catholic”.
