I find that interesting. Over the years here Ive commented multiple times that Catholicism, as practiced in NE Wisconsin is anti-American, socialist, force for promoting evil. Im sure Ive pissed off more than one Catholic for making the statement but that was not my intent. The local RC church has changed significantly since the 80s. Yess, I know that Catholics as a whole have complained about the liberalization of the church but this is something more. Anything anti-rights, globalist, or socialist is promoted as Gods will that must be obeyed due to God supposedly having placed government over them yet, anything pro-rights, pro-American, or pro-personal responsibility "must" be fought as being against Jesus directive to be loving to one another as good Christians.
There definitely was, maybe still is, a fire behind all the smoke in the Diocese of Green Bay (Aurora is in Florence which is GB diocese).
