I'm a Catholic like Camille Paglia is a Catholic: the upbringing is part of my personal psychology whether I'm a believer or not.
However.
I wouldn't sit in the same church with a Trumper. I wouldn't give first aid to a Trumper -- they can burn and bleed on the highway. Don't blow that "do unto others" crap at me.
You cannot treat a vicious space alien the same as a human being.
But I'll follow the advice of Pope Francis, if I were otherwise inclined to go to church on Easter Sunday.
I wouldn't go to church on Easter Sunday, because the Pope thinks it's a bad idea, just as I think it's a bad idea.
And this is one case in which people should be arrested for "practicing their religion" -- when they're really just spreading a contagion on Sunday to infect the unsuspecting multitudes on Monday . . . .
BY THE WAY. I was once a scholar in the field of "English Literature" -- particularly that of the 17th and 18th centuries. Many of you who actually read books as children will remember "Robinson Crusoe".
It's author also published another important work, actually based on accounts he had from his uncle, who lived through the year of the plague in 1665:

For those who are "sheltering in place", ordering groceries through Insta-Cart and otherwise staying safe by a roaring fire with a nice comforter in your favorite chair or sofa, this should be great reading. You will notice, even in the first 20 pages or so, familiar patterns: the excruciating use of detailed statistics; government secrecy; rumors that spread almost like the contagion itself; concerns about business versus safety; crowds of people thronging the Mayor of London's office for "Health Certificates" in parallel to the clamor of many in the present day to be "tested" -- the list goes on and on.
I love it, to find great books available for free online. I say -- gobble it up while you can, for tomorrow, we may die!
