While Trump is fighting with the Pope, and everyone has a direct take on it, I believe we need to ask more fundamental questions about where this came from and where it will go. Since I have only generalized knowledge of Catholicism and their history with secular powers, my questions will be filtered through my […]
The Curious Case of Stampeding Questionable Friends Fleeing Trump
