About a third of Minnesota's delegates this year, at least 28, are Catholic, followed by Episcopalians with four. Only three people surveyed said they were Lutheran. That compares with four years ago, when 19 of the 66 delegates responding to the AP's survey said they were Catholic.Get that? "You try to take your faith seriously"...BUT...they can not! So much for professing to be Catholic - it just isn't so...
Most, 22 of 28 who responded, supported abortion rights and 15 of them said they backed gay marriage rights.
Former Minnesota House Speaker Phil Carruthers said he was troubled that politics and religion had become so intertwined.
"You try to take your faith seriously," he said. "There's a set of moral principles, but that's different from what the laws of the state and the country should be."
Does anyone teach the faith anymore?
