The Pope lately wrote to the American bishops to denounce the War on Immigrants of the MAGA administration. And what happens ? J.D. Vance, a convert to Catholicism, has offered us a lesson in alternative theology, and Tom Homan, “speaking as a lifelong Catholic,” has declared that the Pope “… ought to focus on his work and leave enforcement to us. He’s got a wall around the Vatican, does he not?” Both of these cynics have found the Catholic label convenient, convenient until their fascist politics conflicts with Catholic social teaching. 

J.D. and Homan should leave the Catholic church and join up with the evangelicals and find comfort in their politicized religion.
