America sure is a different place than it was in 1960. Then, Protestants were suspicious of Catholics in high places. (The irony is that Kennedy wasn’t very serious about his Catholicism. That was the message of his speech.) Now, the official atheist religion is suspicious of anyone who names the name of Jesus Christ (except for their own who take on a form of Christianity for purposes of respectability).
The Left has to destroy moral underpinnings and the family unit in order for the State to assume total control.
