Really. Makes sense to me......not.
Michelle, like everyone else in this country, has the right to her own religious beliefs. And yes, just like 0bama. However, I’m pretty sure neither Catholics or Lutherans shout “God Damn America” from their pulpits.
So what if she believes the Pope is the Antichrist? I used to think it was my middle kid until he got older!

You have one of those middle sons too? You mean there’s hope? ;-)

*Some RCs believe that a pope will be anti-Christ:
Fr. Herman Kramer was a Catholic priest who spent 30 years studying and writing a book on the Apocalypse. In his book, he wrote the following about St. Paul’s prophecy concerning the Antichrist sitting in the Temple of God.
“St. Paul says that Antichrist ‘sitteth in the temple of God’… This is not the ancient Temple of Jerusalem, nor a temple like it built by Antichrist, as some have thought, for then it would be his own temple… this temple is shown to be a Catholic Church, possibly one of the churches in Jerusalem or St. Peter’s in Rome, which is the largest church in the world and is in the full sense ‘The Temple of God.’”
Our Lady of La Salette, Sept. 19, 1846: “Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Anti-Christ… the Church will be in eclipse.”
The Catholic Encyclopedia article on “Antichrist” indicates that St. Bernard believed that the
Antichrist would be an antipope. http://www.mostholyfamilymonastery.com/section1.pdf
According to the prophecy of St. Malachy, the last pope would be “the glory of the olive”, which is a phrase that has been associated with Pope Benedict XVI. http://papalprophecies.com/obama-pope-benedict-december-2012-the-anti-christ-the-last-pope.html

“When the great ruler (the Great Monarch who is to rule Europe after the collapse of Communism) exterminates the Turks almost entirely, one of the remaining Mohammadans will be converted, become a priest bishop and cardinal, and when the new pope is elected (immediately before Antichrist) this cardinal will kill the pope before he is crowned, through jealousy, wishing to be pope himself; then when the other cardinals elect the next pope this cardinal will proclaim himself Anti-pope, and two-thirds of the Christians will go with him. He, as well as Anti-christ, are descendants of the tribe of Dan. - Yves Dupont (a staunch anti-communist, and a learned Catholic historian, September 1975 A.D.)
As a product of a Lutheran grade school education I have substantial experience in background on this matter. At the time of my schooling we students were being taught that the catholic religion was a definite no-no. This for my brother and I in spite of our very close association with catholic boys by sports involvement. Our school couldn’t supply a baseball and softball team so we teamed up with boys from the two catholic schools to compete with the public grade schools. My brother, who was an exceptional athlete, and I enjoyed this relationship until when our teams won city tournaments the word was out that my brother and I were playing under the banner of a horrible,unsanctioned by Lutherans catholic school. We were called in and read the riot act as to allowed religious associations. Fortunately the next year was public high school for my brother and the situation was cooled. I did sneak by one more year.
