I'm familiar with Biden's religiosity. It doesn't bother me. He uses his religion for himself. I'm confident that won't push it on anyone.

As a foreigner I cringe at the religion-laden banter that is associated with US politics, but that's how it is. What I loathe is the sub text message that to be a 'good' person, you have to be religious. On Biden, he may be a decent man, certainly compared to the vile Trump, but progressives point out his political record on many issues and it ain't that hot. We can only hope he does more than the window dressing he and Obama did.

I just let it pass. I noted it but given there is just so damn much he and his administration are going to have to deal with it's not high on the list of things I call my representatives about. That said I am hoping having seen the damage the evangeloons can do a way can be found to subtly steer us into more secular waters. We'll see.

President Biden is a huge Catholic but does not impose it on others. Compared to the debacle that reigned here for 4 years, his speeches are refreshing, comforting & true just as Christ would counsel. Biden was not my 1st choice but compared to what the opposition offered, there was only one choice. The Democrats have to save the nation again.

I didn't mind it under the circumstances. Maybe it made my lunatic evangelical family feel better about him. Since they don't believe catholics are christians if it keeps them from looking for another dumpster fire (tRump) I'm fine with it.

People who are openly atheist are essentially barred from holding high public office. If we only ran atheists, it would be decades of Republicans fucking shit up beyond belief before the public would take a chance on one. I hate it, but I have to live with it living among so many dumb people.

By keeping an intangible god "alive," people will inadvertently serve the tangible god: Money

""Take man's most fantastic invention - God."/

It says that politicians pander to the religious community. I just find it hard to believe that anybody actually believes. I can't figure out how people could accept the possibility that there's such a thing as a supernatural deity, let alone swear by it. It doesn't make sense to me. I'm confused.

To this atheist his religious filled speeches were a refreshing exercise in humility and an admission that he cannot do what needs to be done without help - and isn't afraid to ask for it from anyone or anything. Lots and lots of help.

No, didn't read the article because I don't need to go looking to be offended by the words of a practicing RC.
