I have a hard time calling this Barrett woman a Catholic. She's part of a cult and and that's scary.
"The New York Times reported that Barrett and her husband, who are parents to seven children, are members of an obscure group called People of Praise.
"Members of the group swear a lifelong oath of loyalty, called a covenant, to one another, and are assigned and are accountable to a personal adviser, called a 'head' for men and a 'handmaid' for women," the report read. "The group teaches that husbands are the heads of their wives and should take authority over the family."
According to The Times, the group describes itself as a "charismatic Christian community." The "heads and handmaids give direction on important decisions, including whom to date or marry, where to live, whether to take a job or buy a home and how to raise children."

Right wing catholic psychos are the only ones on the right that read so they're the only ones that can be called upon.

She sounds like a Mormon, a Scientologist or a Duggar.
The group, which was founded in South Bend, Indiana in 1971, teaches that men have authority over their wives. Members swear a lifelong oath of loyalty to one another and are expected to donate at least 5 per cent of their earnings to the group.
Members of People of Praise are assigned to personal advisers of the same sex—called a "head" for men and "handmaid" for women, until the rise in popularity of Atwood's novel and the television series based on it forced a change in the latter...
...some former members have described how "heads" and "handmaids"—now known as "leaders"—can play a huge role in the lives of members, such as directing their choice of partner, where they live and how they raise children.
They're very watchful of their people. They report things to your heads if they see you out doing things you're not supposed to be doing. It's very much a Big Brother type of thing," she said.

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

The Right has always played both sides in most disputes. Especially when it comes to race. We need to build a wall to keep out Mexicans and dEmS aRe ThE rEaL rAcIsTs. The Democrats want to destroy the suburbs with Blacks and the Democrats keep black people on the plantation.
