If The Catholics Are Trying To Get Me To Like Them, They Are Going About It In The Right Way
First, the Pope announces that he favors civil union between gays.
“Homosexuals have a right to be part of the family,” the pontiff said in “Francesco,” a documentary about his life. “They’re children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out, or be made miserable because of it.”
“What we have to create is a civil union law,” he added. “That way, they are legally covered. I stood up for that.”
And then, and then …. The National Catholic Reporter steps in.
What disqualifies Barrett is the extreme moral relativism she displayed in her confirmation hearing. Not so long ago, moral relativism was the war cry of cultural conservatives, at least since then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger enounced the “dictatorship of relativism” at the last Mass before the cardinals entered the conclave of 2005 from which Ratzinger emerged as Pope Benedict XVI.
It is her bad faith in discussing the law that warrants disqualifying her. About the evils of climate change, access to health care and voter intimidation, Americans deserve better than a relativist dressed in originalist drag. The Senate should vote no on the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett.
If you have some free time this afternoon, you might want to scamper over and read the whole thing. It’s good.
The Pope appears to be a Christian, a real step forward from the would-be inquisitor who preceded him.
1you can heretofore refer to her as ‘bad faith amy’
2Always did like the NC Reporter. Its way above the NC Register. As for ACB, she didn’t say anyting because she is not hot emental dynamo the White House says she is. But, then how would they now what a mental dynamo is?
3Wow! Some of my hyper-Catholic kinfolk may meltdown over stuff like this. Heheh, PFG, be fun to watch.
Francis pretty well despises DJT too.
Papa Pancho [AKA- The Energizer Bunny Pope] is the first Jesuit Pope. Jesuits are the most demanding and rigorous of Catholic Orders [I attended a tough Jesuit university for two years].

4WTG Pope Frankie! Now for an ex-communication of Amy and the Gingrich frauds with a exorcism of Orange Foolius. See what ya can do to give Lady karma an assist, sir.
5The pope is still a PoS ahole as there is NOTHING wrong with gay marriage other than the bigots who hate everything including themselves!!! To heaven with all the religious dimwits!! I don’t want them in hell cuz that is where I am going!!!
6I want every lawyer that has to face her to start by reminding her that the religious leader she claims to love so much said, “Judge not.” Since by definition she’s ignoring that 1, she can’t much claim that she her religious principles are what’s guiding her judicial decisions, can she? (Her hero also said bupkis about abortion and homosexuality, though. Bet she’s not an “originalist” on that book, huh?)
7Lord, from a pope, that’s basically waving a Pride flag!
