Reply #9: Nobody expected the Spanish Inquisition, either [View All]

Consider this: some Catholics were alienated from the Church in the 60s and 70s, when the Church embraced civil rights and progressive politics.

Funny that some Catholics feel more strongly about the Church since, in recent years, it has supposedly embraced "social conservatism."

Gee, anyone think that a common thread in these two trends might be bigotry? Maybe the first group were pissed off that they were morally obligated to accept "neggrahs" and reject war by the priests and nuns. And maybe the second group rushes towards the NeoRepublican Party because they have made it cool to be an intolerant bigot again.
