"Peter could not have been the first Pope, because in Acts 3:6, he said 'Silver and Gold have I none.' " Yes, I laughed when I heard that joke yesterday and yes, I wrote a book about the errors of Roman Catholicism this year. All of that said, I want it known that I WOULD ABSOLUTELY SUPPORT THE SUPREME COURT NOMINATION OF AMY CONEY BARRETT (WHO, BY ALL ACCOUNTS IS A VERY FERVENT CATHOLIC) IF TRUMP PUTS HER FORWARD TO FILL RBGs SEAT. ("RBG" is Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died Friday, in case you are unaware).
Why do I support Barrett?? Four reasons.
1.) By all accounts she WILL strictly interpret the Constitution and also she IS against Abortion, unlike Catholic politicians (think Pelosi and Cuomo) who disregard the pro-Life teachings of Catholicism. (And Yes, the Abortion issue IS important to me: if the "Pro-choice" group can be honest about THEIR concern, why can't a Pro-LIFER be upfront about HIS)??
So I've pre-emptively dealt with the issue of "Chet how can you support a Catholic though you are against Catholicism," now there's three OTHER issues I want to address honestly (but briefly).
2.) "Chet, how can you support a WOMAN for this position?" I'm not even going to dignify that with a lengthy response, other than to say THE SUPREME COURT ISN'T THE CHURCH, there is no Biblical prohibition against women having authority over men in COURT.
3.) "Chet does the fact that Amy is gorgeous have anything to do with your endorsement?" Take a look at photos of the other two still-living females on the Court before you read my response. Here it is: Amy's beauty has NOTHING to do with her qualifications but she WOULD add "Balance."
So, I started this blog with a joke and ENDED it with one!! Wait a second...I promised one MORE reason......
4.) I would wholeheartedly support "A.C.B." to replace "RBG" because Trump PROMISED she'd fill Ginsburg's seat one day, he should keep that commitment. ESPECIALLY so close to the election, he should keep that commitment
