“Professional” politicians have no soul. Their religion is about themselves!

Joe only “takes care” of those who can vote. Unfortunately, that does not include the truly weakest of God’s children, the unborn.

When he breathes his last, the Roman Catholic Church will provide him with a full blown dignitary’s funeral. No wonder Democrat politicians do not honor their church’s teachings.

I would like to coin a phrase, I hope Mitt’s team picks up on this:
“Recreational Abortion”.

An important question is also to what extent is the Catholic faith, as commonly administered in the US, leftist?

Today’s Daily Caller has an article that opens:

“Letters signed by Barack Obama 25 years ago and obtained by The Daily Caller, show the future president approaching Chicago’s then-mayor Harold Washington in 1987 about a community organizing project whose advisory board would include his pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright; the controversial leftist Catholic priest Father Michael Pfleger; and the brother of Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers.”

Michael Pfleger’s base was radical leftist Catholics.

Liberalism.

No question there, the God of Liberalism is far more influential and powerful to the likes of liberalism than is the God of Christianity.

You cannot be a Christian/Catholic and fully support on-demand abortion and infanticide.

“Catholic social doctrine talks about taking care of those who — who can’t take care of themselves, people who need help.”

So let’s see here, unborn children cannot take care of themselves, so let’s just kill them.

” Life begins at conception. “

That’s why it’s murder.

“But I refuse to impose it (churches position on abortion) on equally devout Christians and Muslims and Jews - - -”

But this jackass will impose his socialist Marxist liberal beliefs on all of us whether we like it or not.

Question answered, Leftism is his religion as well as his mental disease.

Biden’s no more a “Catholic” than was Ted Kennedy.

“When he breathes his last, the Roman Catholic Church will provide him with a full blown dignitary’s funeral.”

__________________________________________

I don’t think so.

“Vice President Joe Biden has been instructed by bishops not to present himself for Communion; he has been the subject of many reprimands; and he has been banned from speaking at Catholic institutions. Most of these sanctions are a function of his pro-abortion views.”

If Ted Kennedy wasn’t given a diosesean funeral then Biden surely won’t.

Alinsky preferentially and calculatingly insinuated himself in the religious structure (and advised others to do so) in Chicago, in particular the Catholic church.

From an interview with Playboy magazine in 1972:
"...“Well, the first thing I did, the first thing I always do, is to move into the community as an observer, to talk with people and listen and learn their grievances and their attitudes. Then I look around at what I’ve got to work with, what levers I can use to pry closed doors open, what institutions or organizations already exist that can be useful. In the case of Back of the Yards, the area was 95 percent Roman Catholic, and I recognized that if I could win the support of the Church, we’d be off and running. Conversely, without the Church, or at least some elements of it, it was unlikely that we’d be able to make much of a dent in the community...”

What a scumbag. But a leftist. And this is how leftists view God: as a tool.

Guys like Biden say they don’t want to impose their religion on voters. I see. So does that mean he doesn’t want to impose his political views on the voters?

He works for the biggest abortionist in the nation.

Mr. Biden should be ashamed.

Joe knows the value of a good rationalization.

Arrogant, condescending, elitist totalitarian socialism. Any affiliation to the Catholic church is just cover for this punk, as it is with so many criminals.

Catholic social doctrine essence is to stand for those who are least in society, those who cannot do it for themselves. The unborn cannot speak for themselves and their parents will not, so it is up to the community to stand for them and provide life. Abortion still violates the universal law thou shall not kill and one is still held accountable even if the liberals say no

Joe Biden’s religion is Joe Biden and the power, wealth and perqs that can be rendered unto him.

Gaffe-ism, goofism, and stupidism have a hold on his soul.
