Once again the Catholic Church comes to the aid of fascism. [View all]

During War 2 the Catholic Church aided Hitler and now it, via the Pope, it once again is aiding the Fascist MAGAT’s candidate for our presidency by saying we should vote for “the lesser of two evils”.

This obscene comparison of Kamala as an equivalency in evil is disgusting. Sometimes religious leaders should just say ‘no comment’. To state that she is only slightly less evil than one of the most heinous humans on the planet is clearly evidence that the pope needs to apologize and retire.

I ordinarily don’t care what any religious person states but millions listen to this guy and he needs to get a clue about what evil is. No well meaning person can accept this statement from him as an expression of decency or hopefulness and peace.

Again, sometimes it’s just better to keep yer stupid mouth shut and let people think you don’t know what you are talking about, rather than open it and remove all doubt.
