The first Catholic vice president

Ted Olsen

Joe Biden just became the first Roman Catholic vice president in American history. NPR lets us know that five other Catholics have run for vice president: William Miller (R-1964), Ed Muskie (D-1968), Thomas Eagleton (D-1972, briefly), Sargent Shriver (D-1972) and Geraldine Ferraro (D-1984).

Unfortunately he's not authentically Catholic in so far he lends public support for the heinous crime of abortion - one cannot pretend to be "Catholic" and publicly hold beliefs contrary to the Faith. I do hope for a conversion of heart before its too late.

Check thou this out :

"Bishop Robert Vasa: Those who profess to love God, but back abortion, are liars"

Amen... Anyone can claim to be Christian, but "Ye shall know them by their fruits". It's not what we say we are, it's what we demonstrate that we are.

Oh my, the ministry of condemnation strikes again. That's never been God's way. Back to the basics of showing Christ to people and letting Him change their hearts instead of guilt or the cheap slogans of ungifted teachers.

The man has advocated for the "right" of killing pre-born children for 30 years and not judgment should be made on that reality? Time to take saccharin pseudo-Christianity and bury it in the trash heap. "Whatever you do to the least of these, you do unto Me." Biden is no Christian, but a fraud.
