No doubt. Priests don't actually take a vow of poverty, chastity yes, but not poverty. It's always an interesting contradiction when you have a convent at a parish and the nuns (who I think almost all take a vow of poverty) and priests lead much different lives. I'm not saying priests should take a vow of poverty, but I'm one of those rogue Catholics who'd be fine with married priests, allowing contraception (I think God is more powerful than latex so no reason to ban condoms as if they're kryptonite to him) among other things.
Same on both those counts. It's the primary reason I left the church....disagreement on many of the basic tenets.
Mine was I don't want to be part of it. 12+ years of Catholic school was enough for me.

It looks good for the R's but I am curious if they actually pull it off. I think they will pickup some of them, but not all.

Ballot harvesting will be in full effect. I think R's pick up seats, but not at the margin they thing they will.

Well any one that’s close will flip D based on the expert ballot harvesters they’ve employed in past elections. Especially in CA, PA, MN, etc.

No contest. Ballot harvesting is new to the “game”. “Restricting voting” has been a lib talking point for YEARS. :nod:

Good point. It seems like news of Democrat election fraud type things is followed by news or reminders of Republican election fraud type things.

Bronx Tina will mop the floor with AOC if they ever get into a debate. AOC talks way too much in made up terms and concepts and Tina is straightforward. Not sure it matters, but would be fun to see.

Dude you're in the minority thats why you have to accuse your opponet of that which you are guilty. :coffee:

Notice how the vanishingly small number of voter fraud cases have all turned out to be Republicans when investigated?

Notice how MTG hired the pedophile Milo Yianoupolis to her campaign after pedophilia blossomed as a Republican talking point?

Records show coordinated Arizona ballot collection scheme
An Arizona woman indicted in 2020 on accusations of illegally collecting ballots apparently ran a sophisticated operation using her status as a well-known Democratic operative in the border city of San Luis to persuade voters to let her gather and in some cases fill out their ballots, according to records obtained by The Associated Press.
