For the Left, their "religion" comes in a distant second to their support of obama.

He started this war on the Church and it looks like they are fighting back.

Can't see it helping obama to have the church rail against his attack on freedom of religion every Sunday at mass.

Of course you didnt answer the question, so I will take that as a no, you are not Catholic, and probably dont know many personally.
Or know whats being said at Mass.

I've mentioned my religious affiliation in the past....but what does that have to do with a mass (hopefully happening every Sunday, across the country) and a pastor talking about the assault of religious freedom on the church by obama?

You mean you didn't like his homily?

I'm sorry, but I dont hang on your every post with bated breath, so I missed the one where you spoke of your religious leanings.
I doubt you attend Mass, so you really have no idea what parishioners are speaking of amongst themselves, so to behave as if you have your finger on the pulse of Catholics is just a little disingenuous, to say the least.
What a Bishop has to say is only the official Catholic (sic) party line, and has little, if nothing to do with what everyday Catholics think.
You, of all people, should know about official party lines and mouthpieces.

Most Catholic women use contraception. They will vote for Obama when they are in the privacy of the voting booth.

Also, Catholics voting for a Mormon. Interesting.

Catholic bishops have turned against women with their assault on women's health. The women supported the catholic church and were willing to obey it, until the church stabbed women in the back!

Ouch! I think obama will regret starting a war with the Church (Catholic, Protestant, etc).
Oh boy! Time to start taxing the Catholic Church! The Catholic Church has proselytized themselves in politics and therefore are violating the conditions for tax deductions.
