A European abortion lobby is warning against “religious extremism” on the rise across the continent, singling out Catholicism and ignoring the threat posed to Europe by Islam. The 158-page report “The Next Wave: How Religious Extremism Is Reclaiming Power,” published by the European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual & Reproductive Rights (EPF), faults “religious extremism” for the phenomenon of “accelerating financial expansion of movements working to dismantle decades of hard-won sexual and reproductive rights across Europe.”
The EPF report derides the “anti-rights and religious extremist actors in Europe” working to oppose abortion across the continent, but really only labels Catholics and other Christians as “religious extremist actors.” The report identifies the Catholic Church as the animating force behind “five pan-European platforms: an anti-abortion coalition, an anti-LGBTQI network, a Christian political party, a social media mobilisation [sic] hub and a pseudo-Catholic far-right alliance.” The EPF further claims that a “Catholic financial network is quietly gaining ground — not just bankrolling activism but reshaping Europe’s political playing field.”
Throughout the report, Catholic media organizations and priests are targeted and smeared, while religious organizations like Opus Dei are labeled “anti-rights puppet masters” orchestrating the movement against abortion, LGBT ideology, and all forms of progressivism the continent over.

There needs to be a "whispering campaign" to get the 3Ms (maniacal murdering muzzards) to turn on, and wipe out the baby killers.
Something like:
"Euroborts accuse Mohamed of being a child molester."
Same here in America
It is Christian Catholics and them Jews causing all the trouble
Not mooselimb trash
This is all about going after Poland.
Proud to be an extremist for Jesus.
