Dr. Robert Royal, the president of the Faith & Reason Institute in Washington, D.C., is joining the chorus of conservative Catholics deeply troubled by having a popular likable Catholic in the White House because Joe Biden (like so many other practicing Catholics) doesn’t agree with all the Church’s hardline views on social issues.
He’s not alone. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a similar pronouncement just last week. But even they didn’t do what Royal did, calling Biden an “anti-Catholic ‘Catholic.'”
I was raised Catholic (altar boy for 7 years) and a very dogmatic, rigid school of thought has infiltrated the seminars. My sister, who is church going is almost amused at how the new young priest was so out of touch with the parish goers. (She is in the south by the way). Think of ISIS to the Muslims.
