It is no secret that there are a lot of leftists in the Catholic Church, both in the hierarchy and membership. Heck, The Pope is a hard-core leftist. Far too many Catholics were quick to attack the Covington boys without knowing the facts, and many still did after the facts came out, all in the name of “fairness” or “social-justice”. It is a disgrace. Many Catholics seem to place more faith in leftist government than their own church. Why are they even members?
