re: I don’t understand how there can be so many liberal Catholics

It's because far left liberals have replaced Jesus with government. They worship the government and instead of taking care of the poor and downtrodden they look to the government to do it for them. They don't actually care about those people any more than conservatives do like they claim

Some people say they don't believe in God. But everyone and I do mean everyone worships something.

It’s closer than most think. Like 37% (D) to 41% (R)

People who say that are just evading responsibility. Everyone comes from a lineage of thousands of years from whichever belief system they come from. It’s ingrained in your makeup, in your value system. You can’t just decide to ignore it just because you went to college and listened to some radicalized clown. People who do that tend to be miserable.

Biden, Colbert, Pelosi, Newsome Even in my own personal life at my parish. There are a number of people who outright support the entire Democrat party line (abortion, alphabet stuff, race politics, feminism, etc) all of which is in direct opposition to the Church’s teachings. Even with signs out from of Church that say to end abortion, they walk in anyways believing the opposite. I’m sure there is this same phenomenon in a lot of Protestant churches as well. I just never understood why these people still want to do the church thing with all of these opposing viewpoints?

I’m a practicing catholic , flawed, a sinner , but someone who wants to revert back to a more reverent church, despite my many religious and moral shortcomings

Unfortunately, many people in the faith treat Catholicism as a cultural phenomenon - like reform Jews

They’ll send their kids to catholic school, even be practicing active members in the parish but pick and choose certain moral teachings to follow I.e IVF, birth control , taking communion in a state of mortal sin etc

They are a big part of my social network and while Catholicism is the one true church, we have an issue of practicing it the way it’s intended to be practiced

Watching a leftist talk about Christianity is like watching AOC explain finance.

You will know them by their fruits.

Liberals (and Jesus) believe in helping the poor. Republicans say the poor are "takers." Republicans sayit is SOCIALISM anytime you want to help the poor! Republicans say cut USAID. Liberals (and Jesus) believe in supporting immigrants. Republicans want ICE officers in masks to round up brown people and send them anywhere. Build a Wall! Jesus supported liberal causes.

Nah.


Conservatives help the poor through charity. Liberals rob the taxpayer to pay their lazy constituents.

One of the libtard commandments is “robbing Peter to pay Paul”.

According to Mark 14:7 Jesus stated: The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me.

Jesus gives US a choice.

Romans 13:1-7 states, “Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves...."
