This woman is as phony and disingenuous as anyone who has ever walked the planet. If a Republican had talked like this, he’d be excoriated for violating the so-called separation of church and state.
She couldn’t bring herself to actually speak the name “The Word”! Just like the consummate politician pandering for the religious vote, she skirted the actual name of “The Word” (Jesus), instead defaulting to the phrase “and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” and then said in essence “you can fill in that blank however you wish”.
Then when questioned about Jesus’ right to life from the moment of conception (and her being a mother of five), she avoided the answer, instead referring to the bowing of the head in prayer in church at the mention of “The Word”, again avoiding the name of Jesus! Amazing!! Since the immaculate conception so-called clearly reveals that “The Word” became viable at that very moment, she reveals what kind of catholic she really is.
On another note, I hope she was listening to herself when pointing out that we all (including you San Fran Nan) will give an accounting of what we did with what God gave us here in this world, understanding that it has significance as to what the world to come will hold for each of us in the face of eternity. I venture to guess that her list of abusing what God gave her is going to be a rather long one!
