Biden v Dump 1: If not now, when? If not us, who?

The campaign is kicking into gear.

The Rev. Robert Altier delivered a fiery sermon earlier this month, labeling COVID-19 an evil, man-made conspiracy and telling his Catholic congregation in Crystal (Minnesota) that “we’ve been lied to.”
That came just days after the Rev. James Altman, a priest in La Crosse, Wis., appeared in a video posted on YouTube, calling Catholic Democrats “Godless” hypocrites doomed to hell — a video, produced by a Minnesota conservative media news outlet, that now has received 655,000 clicks.

“It is a man-made virus,” Altier told his congregation. “Work had begun in a laboratory in North Carolina and they shipped it to China to finish the work. And it was released, so that people would get sick. All this is being done on purpose.”

“You cannot be Catholic and be Democrat. Period,” Altman says. “Their party platform is against everything the Catholic church teaches. … Repent of your support of that party and that platform, or face the fires of hell.”

The 20-minute homily ends with Altier proclaiming the only way he would take a COVID vaccine is if “they arrest me, and hold me down, and force it upon me.”

Saint Raphaels...2 miles away from me. Wrong part of town to be spouting BS like that. (though his sheep lapped it up from what I saw on FB)

I would say it amazes me the Catholics hate the Dems so much (who are running a Catholic candidate who actually goes to Church) but lets be honest...the Catholics spent decades raping little boys and covering it up so no one is really surprised they bow to the God King and spout the conspiracies.

Sounds like joecct's kind of priest. Honestly, I can't figure out why there are still so many Dems calling themselves Catholics and going to Mass. Unless you stumble upon a left-leaning pastor who prefers to emphasize the social/economic justice stuff over the Old Testament social order hullabaloo, the church otherwise actively preaches against or isn't particularly passionate about a lot of the things Democrats stand for. When you look at all the money the church has soaked up over the years, and then look at the sh*t they've spent it on that isn't charitable in any way, it's such a scam. Only the Mormons are worse.

And preachers can say whatever they want from the pulpit as long as they don't openly endorse specific candidates. So they can broadly attack the Democratic Party and their positions as a whole, as long as they don't also endorse or donate to any specific Republican candidates for office. The law is pretty clear about this.
 
There are a couple of Trump supporters in my town who have had bricks thrown through their windows. While it's fun to speculate that they might have done it themselves to cause a stir, given how many people here are further left than I am, I don't think that's the case. Not cool.

I mentioned to my wife that a priest in Crystal made the news for spewing COVID-19 lies. Her response, with a knowing grin, "Father Altier. That's not surprising. Send me the story, please." I guess he's known through the Catholic groups around here for the stuff he's said over the years.

Wasn't he putting forth QAnon crap on the origins of the virus?
