Help[Opinions] Re: Politician BA
in reply to a message by Laslow
I am no more anti-Catholic than I am anti any other religion and I'm perfectly well aware that there are lots of Catholics on the board.
I do have pretty strong views on those who have huge families on the grounds of their religion, and I'm as entitled to those views as you are to any you might have on that or any other matter. I also find a grotesque hypocrisy in someone so vocal about his religion being a total stranger to the concept of Christian charity.
Jacob Rees-Mogg is representative of a particular kind of English Catholic that I find pretty repugnant as a matter of fact - a hangover from the Reformation. The novel Brideshead Revisited beautifully illustrates the type, and ostentatiously naming a string of children after popes and obscure saints is part and parcel of what he stands for.
