    Reminder that Sleepy Joe is a self-described “devout catholic”

    Now remind me how catholics feel about abortion

      Remember when Nancy Pelsoi was banned from her church when she advocated for abortion rights… AFTER it was overturned? And instead of rallying her base, calling for protests, or doing anything political, she did an epic girl boss move and wasted money to go to the Vatican and get communion from the pope. We love our productive politicians, don’t we folks?

          They’ll support a local venue that hosts religious festivals and ceremonies, regardless of the leadership’s position on a single hot-button topic.

          Its the same way that they support the venue when the institution opposes the death penalty or advocates in favor of open borders and refugee resettlement or debt forgiveness or civil rights for native peoples. I only fucking wish lay Catholics were fully on board with the stated mission of the Catholic Church. Hell, I wish the majority-Catholic SCOTUS was as doctrinaire as your average priest. The US would be a significantly better place.

          At this point, I’d take a Catholic Church overhaul of the Texas juvenille justice system on the grounds of lesser evil. At least the Catholics would install some new AC units and improve the food quality in the child-rape-centers the state is running.
