teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Barrett is more than a Catholic - she is a member of a religious cult that inspired the novel "The Handmaid's Tale". And she's been against women's rights; saying that she wants to create something like "God's empire" or kingdom, etc. On the other hand, you have Joe Biden who is also a Catholic, and do the same critics say the same things about him? I haven't noticed, did you? That's because Joe Biden doesn't let his religion govern his politics.

She also thinks that her religious beliefs trump the law. No worries, I meant precedent but missed it when looking over the post.

Bias and values are a separate issue from competence. I have no doubt she'd produce rulings I don't like. That doesn't make her incompetent.
