It was annoying to hear the constant Media barrage of the labels Centrist Macron versus Far Right Le Pen.
He is not Centrist other than from the perspective of the Far Left media, Le Pen is where the Center used to be.
I think it was the Media's way of saying Sensible Macron, Nutcase Le Pen.
Centrist - Far Right - Sensible - Nutcase - Sensible - Nutcase, hammered in, every day for months.
And the French bought it.

I agree totally.

It all boils down to whether the people are Godly or not.

61% of the French call themselves Catholic. 40% of those “Catholics” don’t believe there is a God at all. So 81% x .4 leaves 24.4% that, plus 5 percent or so all other Protestants gets you about 30%.

Only 5% of French Catholics attend mass weekly.

28% of eligible French voters actually voted.

59% in the US.

It is nothing but grim times ahead for a secular humanist Europe
