I've concluded that this is one reason that some so-called evangelicals are as crazy as a sh*thouse rat in their hatred of certain denominations which vote overwhelmingly conservative, particularly Mormons and to a lesser extent, Catholics.

These brands of Christianity aren't organized in such a fashion that socialists can easily infiltrate their ministries. The Catholics have a high bar to clear (celibacy) while the Mormons rely on an unpaid ministry.

So a socialist is going to have to be celibate (or at least good at not getting caught) if they are going to become a Catholic priest or nun and their going to have to find an alternative method of earning a living if they are going to become a Mormon bishop. Both tend to be very high bars to clear for your average Marxist-Socialist.

Ummm...haven’t read the Pope’s encyclical, eh?

The Catholic Church has a LOT of pro-amnesty, liberal nuns and priests!

Show me leading Catholic priests and bishops who are anti-amnesty and don’t support the invasion from our South. (crickets).

I think it spreads across all denominations.

Here’s a story on how the Catholic Church is contributing to the problem:
