This calls to mind Joseph Bernardin. (God have Mercy on his soul.) He did so much to wreck the Catholic Church in the United States, with his “common ground” garbage. He saw the Church Militant as the “church kumbaya.”

I had the not so good pleasure of having to live up in MA for some time. Now the New England area one would think would be conservative as it is mostly Catholic as is my mother in law. Here is the strange thing though, it is liberal. Now my mother in law is the typical Catholic New Englander. She goes to church every Sunday and harps on about God here and there. She then goes and becomes a Democrat again after church. Doesn't make sense so I asked her why she votes for the Dems and yet she is supposed to be a Catholic As expected I had rattled her cage and she replies that she always has been and she likes JFK I told her that you are supposed to be against homo's abortion, contraceptives etc and yet you vote for everything your faith stands for. no answer but anyway I asked a lot of people the same question when I lived up there and not once did I ever get a straight answer, They're like robots who walk to the voting booth totally dumb and ignorant. Why those priests up there do not mention this to their flock is beyond me. Why can't they give their sermons and state that the family is a man and a woman, marriage is between a man and a woman, children do better with a mother and a father. Stand up and be counted against contraceptives and abortion. It is pathetic that the north east should be the most republican area of the country and yet it is not because of either the priests have no clue, are scared to get in trouble or the people are just dumb and ignorant. and why do the priests give service , not sure what it is called to the likes of the Kennedys etc, surely the Pope would send a fax or whatever to his priests telling them to spread the word of the faith

someone I forget who told me once that some of the religious are like religious socialists.

Think it’s a good phrase myself.
I’ve met many people who say they are religious and yet think that they can help everyone by giving them things like money.

time for conservatives and the right to stop trying to appease the liberals and the left thinking the left will like them.

I remember someone on here was in the san freako homo area singing where they get assaulted. They had threats , were hit, had hot coffee thrown at them and had stuff stolen.

The officer asked them if they wanted to press charges, the answer was no I forgive them.;

Why not have pressed charges , now they the homo’s will do it again while laughing at these people singing.
