I do take note of faith. I just posted one talking about Catholic politicians and their church as in Bob Casey Jr. and Rick Santorum.

When a Catholic bishop stands up to church members I take note and it makes me think about the pros and cons of Catholicism.

I make similar observations about the LDS Church. I think the history of persecution creates a desire by LDS politicians like Orrin Hatch and Mitt Romney to be conciliatory and moderate. This Huntsman move fits in to that pattern.

I may be wrong in my view, but that’s how I see it.

I’m confused to see all these Catholic politicians from the Kennedy’s to Schwarzenegger to Pelosi contradicting church teaching. Pelosi may be one of the few to get a rebuke.

I’m angry when I see a tax and spend politician going to an evangelical church because there I see someone using a church to get votes.

I think it is a stretch to identify one’s idiocy with a church, but that is just my opinion. I do it too I guess, because look at all the jews who care less about Israel and keep electing Dems who don’t care either. It could be an interesting study.
