When North Carolina voted for congresscritters in 2020, they ... well, I hope they're not sending their best. 'Cause if Madison Cawthorn is the best NC can send to DC, they're in even sadder shape than I believed. Case in point: Representative Cawthorn's tweet that one of Vatican City's ordinances struck him as probably illegal.
Granted, any fraud could put "SJ" or "FRS" or "HRH" after his name in a Tweet; after all, the Dotard's Twitter handle proclaimed him to be "real." But even if Fr. Ballecer turns out not to be a true Jesuit, his argument remains valid.
Quote:As RawStory notes, Cawthorn has no medical degree, law degree, degree in religious studies, or any of a number of other accreditations that you might think would be useful when talking about this kind of thing. However, that didn’t stop him from denouncing Vatican City’s decision.He was, of course, promptly mocked for this overreach. One message apparently from a member of the Society of Jesus seemed to me to be particularly well put:
“This doesn’t sound legal,” he tweeted Thursday. ”One shouldn’t be forced against their will to be vaccinated. The vaccination is there for those who want it, and are in need of it due to medical vulnerabilities.”
Quote:Fr. Robert R. Ballecer, SJ

Pssst...
The Vatican isn't in California.
- or the United States.
- or part of Country
It's a sovereign nation.
...
I'm pretty sure that you don't want OUR civil laws applying in California.
But, your call.
