I’ve read that Barret has made statements indicating the fervor of her catholic faith, and that she considers it more important than the law.

This seems to me that she will not be a literal interpreter of the constitution but will interject her own opinions into it. How does that make her different from a liberal judge?

When asked about that, I believe she said something like (paraphrasing): “we all have strong dogma within us, religious or not. But I don’t consider that when I interpret the law.”

Just the opposite is true

There was a post on Sunday warning against ACB on account of her deference to the pope and the bishops on some issues (not traditional Catholic doctrines but things like opposition to the death penalty and pro-immigration).

I also have reservations about her being a Catholic.

But then.... Clarence Thomas is a Catholic too. And his record is superb.

war is war. At some point everyone has to realize that and act accordingly.

The West started kicking Islams ass back to the stoneage, as soon as they STARTED FIGHTING back. It’s past time that we started fighting back using the left tactics, and kick their butts back to the stoneage along with Islam.
