Sorry Nick If you are going to gaslight I’m going to push back. Does this sound like someone who loves an atheist dictator?

Vance was raised in a “conservative, evangelical” branch of Protestantism, but by September 2016, he was “thinking very seriously about converting to Catholicism” but was “not an active participant” in any particular Christian denomination.

In August 2019, Vance was baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Church in a ceremony at St. Gertrude Priory in Cincinnati, Ohio. He chose Augustine of Hippo as his Confirmation saint. Vance said he converted because he “became persuaded over time that Catholicism was true and Augustine gave me a way to understand Christian faith in a strongly intellectual way”, further describing Catholic theology’s influence on his political views.

No you misunderstood. I wasn’t saying that part about Vance. I was saying it about the poster.
