Douthat is, like the Catholic SCOTUS JINOs, an extreme hard core, doctrinaire papist.
"But it’s clear that this perspective is widely and sincerely held."
yes, not everybody is like Douthat. Many want and expect freedom FROM (Douthat's) religion.
in other words, he's a garden variety Roman Catholic.

Are you calling them lib s? That might be a reason.![]()
not at all. There's even discussion of "cafeteria" Catholics (divorce, birth control, etc) separate from doctrinaire purist hard ass Catholics like Douthat so the CC doesn't have to bother with the cafeteria crowd.
American RCs aren't garden variety, they're the cafeteria Catholics. in the broader context of the RC Church, Douthat couldn't be more mainstream.
LOL...
I usually don't rock the boat and keep my thoughts to myself with people I don't know. I have on occasion... You should see their anger. It's so damn funny!
Please elaborate
Elaborate what? That I don't speak as candidly about politics with people I work with or strangers? Who does?
People who aren't afraid
(1) their views make them appear stupid
(2) their views will get their asses beat
LOL...
It's not fear, it's maintaining respect at the workplace, and not wasting time with strangers when I'm out on other purposes.
I just love it that Christians play the victim card when people insist the government not legislate based on their beliefs. Nobody is preventing you from practicing your religion, they're preventing you from forcing your religion on others, which is NOT YOUR ING RIGHT!
And they're still doing a pretty terrible job at that...
