Refusing communion for Pelosi really indicates it is about control of women. This is just for Pelosi's political stance. She is well beyond the age to get an abortion even if she wanted one.

A pope who understands earth as ecology has been quite a threat to them.

So glad Senator Sheldon Whitehouse gets it:

"The Supreme Court isn’t done with its right-wing rampage. The decision in WV v. EPA may be handed down tomorrow, and it could unleash a new era of reckless deregulation that will gut protections for all Americans and the environment."

Dominionism is some serious business. Clark and NEPA and so forth. Whitehouse gets it.

You bet. The christo-fascist oil and gas industry would trade abortion for ignoring the Earth burning up in a hot second.

I hope the taxpayer wasn't footing the bill so she could go see the useless pope about cult rituals that she is being denied in the land of religious freedom. Separation of church and state is the answer not bowing to the whims of politicians like Pelosi always flaunting her religion to show she is a moral person in the eyes of cult members. Her prayers for lying Trump and McConnell to see the light have so far been resoundingly unanswered but the cult has reasoning for this so I shouldn't question its effectiveness.

I understand this perspective. Part of me shares it. But the reality is right now that we need all hands on deck to keep the world from spiraling into a new Dark Ages. You may think that’s inevitable. I’m not there yet.

There are two billion people who follow the guy in the pointy hat. It is important to have him on team Not Apocalypse.

You won’t see me apologizing for religion, which is an archaic leftover that uses magical thinking to enforce authoritarian doctrines. But, religion is a reality for the foreseeable future and we have to play the cards we actually have.
