I’ve been waiting for you cult members to turn on your churches.
Congratulations you’ve arrived.


LOL....seriously these people don't realize what is happening to them. And none of them can defend christianity because MAGA hate would piss off Jesus. They care about no one but their orange god.


Blathering about an orange god makes you sound uneducated. If you have a point to make do so, but you aren’t convincing anyone with this nonsense.


Nah it just pisses MAGA off who are truly uneducated. So stop blathering on with your nonsense MAGA

Biden is the VERY DEFINITION of a cafeteria Catholic.


And believe me so are many of the men of the USCCB, just the conservative version.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. Fundamentally, it's about what you think is important in Catholic teaching. I bet we would have very different opinions on that, you and I.

So true! I am Catholic, and have been appalled at how much of a sycophant Dolan has been towards Trump + Vance up until Dolan having to deny Vance's claim that Catholic Charities was profitting from funds for helping refugees.

What's the saying: the recent convert is the biggest zealot.

So, he's part of the Anglican Catholic Church which is not in communion with the Roman Catholic Church, which is the one in this thread. They don't defrock that quickly.

I’m sure all those people who were outreached by Gretchen Whitmer eating a potato chip will be equally outraged by this. /s

First, Vance is a recent convert so he’s really not part of the church. Real Catholics don’t talk to clergy like that, even when they disagree with them. Second, taking care of migrants etc had been a massive budget buster for any charity dealing with this population in addition a huge stressor for already overburdened staff so suggesting that caring for migrants is a profit center is insulting and highly uninformed.

How many Catholics believe the reason the US Conference of Bishops operates Catholic Charities, and that Catholic Charities helps resettle refugees, is because the Catholic Church is eager to make money bringing illegal immigrants into the country?

That’s not disagreeing with the policies of the Church, that’s slander. And if support for Catholic Charities’ work is now limited to the “liberal wing” of the Church then I think you’ve really lost the plot.
