“What is it with Catholics and radical leftist slurs like Bible thumper and snake-handler?”
I have a better question. Do you believe that Catholics are saved?
Since I don't believe in chrstian "salvation" at all, the question is a non-sequitur.
Be advised that I am going to click on the "abuse" button from now on every time I see the words "Bible-thumper" or "snake-handler." Such slurs belong to leftists, not anyone calling him/herself "conservative."
“christian “salvation” at all”
Why am I unsurprised that you reject Christian salvation?
“Such slurs belong to leftists, not anyone calling him/herself ‘conservative.’ “
The only one who has used these terms in this thread is yourself.
