A crowd of New York City worshipers were led by Pastor Ken Boller in a controversial prayer at the Church of St. Fancis Xavier.

Boller, standing at a lecturn, led the group prayer speaking one sentence at a time affirming the tenets of the Black Lives Matter movement in a question and response. 

Boller largely aimed his platform at the white race.

“Do you affirm that white privilege is unfair and harmful to those who have it and to those who do not? Yes,” Boller said.

The crowd repeated “yes” after him.

The statements and affirmations did not sit right with Michelle Malkin who posted a video of Boller’s prayer.

“A tipster sent me this revolting BLM prayer at St Xavier Catholic Church in NYC yesterday,” Malkin Tweeted. “‘Do you affirm that white privilege is unfair...will you commit to helping transform our church culture and worship daily at altar of “racial justice.’ St. George Floyd replaces Jesus.”

The prayers did include some softballs, such as the below:

Boller: “Will you make a greater effort to treat all people with the same respect that you expect to receive? Yes.  

Parishioner: “Yes.”

Many have questioned the appropriateness of church leaders politicizing the pulpit.

Meanwhile conservative Catholics recently asked Presidential Candidate Joe Biden to denounce the destruction Catholic churches have suffered across the nation.
