James Martin , a Jesuit priest and Advisor to The Vatican in the Department of communications, tweeted: "Let me be clear. This is in an uproar. The Bible is not a prop. A Church is not a Photo Op . Religion is not a political Instrument. God is not your game ball. "

Rabbi Jack Moline, President of the Interfaith Alliance , said: "If President Trump standing in front of St John's Episcopal Church and hold a Bible in response to calls for racial Justice - right after with military force, a clear peaceful protesters - is one of The Most flagrant abuse of religion that I've ever seen.
