Reply #7: It's hypocritical that people here defend anything done by Muslims

but attack anything done by Catholics.

The Massachusetts bishops have every right to hire a lobbyist to help them campaign for Catholic values.

Other religions can, and DO, make use of lobbyists, as do secular groups. It's legal, it doesn't violate separation of church and state, and I've never seen any complaints about the practice before.

Some DUers seem determined to drive Catholics away from the Democratic Party.
