Catholicism will be a major player in saving conservative beliefs in this nation... Europe is a shriveled husk..

Then why hasn't Catholicism saved Catholic countries like France, Spain, Italy? Hasn't saved any of Latin America? I am a Catholic --- but separation of Church and State seem like a pretty good idea --- maybe Catholics should worry about saving souls and forget about saving countries because they just don't seem able to do that. There isn't one Catholic country that has reached the level of the USA --- which like it or not was founded on more Protestant virtues such as the work ethic --- Calvinist ideas.

Yeah me too, and as you pointed out this Porterville is quite possibly making one of the single NUTTIEST posts I have seen on here. The reason it is so insane is that he is rationalizing for a broader agenda, La Raza-his interest in The Race. Where I come from that kind of racial christ-complex sounds like racism.

The major point in this idiocy to add is that Boston had a huge Irish Catholic invasion, how is Taxachusets saved by John Kerry and Ted Kennedy?

The Eastern European and Italian mass immigration into Hillary's New York?

The Mexican invasion of Boxer's California?

These are all Democrat bastions. In CA after such a huge invasion of Mexican "saviors" into Bob Dornan's district he was quickly replaced by an ultra liberal latina Democrat. Hispanics and Catholics in general vote Dem, always have. I don't know why, I think they are all complete morons for doing so, but that is reality, and unless you believe voting Dem is going to "save America" more Catholics in America is going to merely get us more Democrats and hurt the United States.
