Admittedly, I live in a redneck rural area-but there are lots of Catholics here and we most definitely think that this pope is a communist, clueless and we don’t take any of his unscientific, ridiculous pronouncements or encyclicals seriously-he can talk all he wants and we don’t vote liberal. Catholics at FR don’t vote left that I’ve seen, either.
That doesn’t change the facts of the Catholic vote.
