With the U.S. Senate seat from Texas up for grabs, video has emerged of Democrat candidate James Talarico urging a Christian church to follow prophetic voices including the Muslim Muhammad and children’s TV legend Mr. Rogers.
The video from September 2019 shows Talarico on stage at his St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, in Austin, Texas.
He told parishioners: “It could be for you a different prophetic voice from a different faith tradition: Buddha, Muhammad, Moses, Lao Tzu, Thich Nhat Hanh, the Dalai Lama.
“Or it may be a prophetic voice from history: Black Elk, Martin Luther King, Dorothy Day, Dolores Huerta, Toni Morrison, Mahatma Gandhi, Mr. Rogers.”
James talarico delivers a “sermon” encouraging his church to follow different prophetic voices:

Jim Hoft at the Gateway Pundit held nothing back in his analysis of the remarks.
“This guy makes the most immature and weird comments while preaching to his far-left church. What a complete flake,” Hoft said.
“November 3rd is going to be a rough day for Texas Democrats. Not even all of their fake voters and cheating is going to push this clown over the finish line.
“The fake news says Talarico is going to win Texas! That will be the day the earth opens and swallows us all.”
Other comments online include:
“This is the serpent whispering in your ear. 🪱”
“Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.” (Matthew 7:15)
“I believe this is called Marxianity.🥴”
“That church should be burned to the ground and the land allowed to remain fallow and unused for eternity.”
“He got Muhammed & Mr. Rogers, but left out Pee Wee Herman!”
