You think they'd take the hint.


Don’t think you have any idea of what separation of church and state means


What do you think it means?

All of the above are excellent comments.


Separation of church and state does not mean nor has ever meant that religions can’t take positions on issues.


Yes, religions can take positions, but no one has to pay attention to them.

And yet our government does. Ronald Reagan actively sought out the support of Jerry Falwell and the so called “Silent Majority “ to garner support for election and reelection. The 1980’s ushered religion into the White House forever

You would have to first start with the Franklin Grahams and Joel Olsteans, as well as all those fake preachers who laid hands on Trump in the White House

No moral authority except the Bible, which MAGA types are always banging on about. Lots in there about welcoming strangers and loving your neighbors and caring for the poor.

Top Catholic Clerics Denounce U.S. Foreign Policy

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/us/catholics-trump-archbishops.html

The three highest-ranking Roman Catholic clerics who lead archdioceses in the United States said in a strongly worded statement on Monday that America’s “moral role in confronting evil around the world” is in question for the first time in decades. Their critique of the Trump administration’s principles — while not mentioning President Trump by name — escalates the American Catholic Church’s denunciations of the country’s top leaders.

In 2026, the country has entered “the most profound and searing debate about the moral foundation for America’s actions in the world since the end of the Cold War,” read the unusual statement issued by Cardinal Blase Cupich, archbishop of Chicago; Cardinal Robert McElroy, archbishop of Washington; and Cardinal Joseph Tobin, archbishop of Newark.

Citing recent events in Venezuela, Ukraine and Greenland as having raised fundamental questions about the use of military force, the cardinals call for a “genuinely moral foreign policy” in which “military action must be seen only as a last resort in extreme situations, not a normal instrument of national policy.”


Good for them. It's about time. Now let's see other "faith groups" stand up for decency.


Episcopal Bishops have also spoken out.

People all over the world are calling out the U.S. for the evil that is happening now.

No one cares. This is so sad.

Well better late than never, I guess.

Did the Catholic Church opine on the Epstein file?

Thought not.

How about Catholic charities' role in breaching our southern border and distributing illegal invaders across the US? They have no credibility or moral authority.
