I NEVER think of Catholics as conservatives. Their Pope is a Communist. . .

I suggest you think again. Nothing is more conservative than an institution so old and rooted that the occasional nutcase (looking at you, Holy Father) has no power to "fundamentally transform" it.

Human nature is flawed and blessed, and Popes and Presidents come and go. Only God, who joins His Sacrifice to ours, has the power to fundamentally transform anything--starting with our souls--and welcome us home.

Francis is a full-blown commie globalist.

It is a mistake to think that the commies haven’t been a creation and cat’s paw of the wealthiest and oldest Establishment all along.

The anti-Catholic sentiment on this thread is deeply amusing given the reality that the most recent judicial heroes of the right (Scalia, Thomas, and Alito) have all been extremely devout Catholics. Of course, Sotomayor and Roberts identify as Catholic too, but the point is that there is no reason to freak out over Catholicism, especially if the person being considered takes it seriously. Many of those can’t wait until the current Pope is gone.

Oh, and both Barrett and Lagoa are Catholic, so...

Anyway, Barrett is the significantly better choice. I will be very disappointed if Lagoa is selected.

Transform to what? Whose god are you referring to exactly?

Thanks for bolstering my opposition to organized religion.
