Will Anyone Buy Ron DeSantis’ Religious Muddle?

David DeCosse, director, religious and Catholic ethics, quoted by Slate.

Some view DeSantis’ language as plainly antithetical to his Catholicism while others believe it’s reflective a more aggressive Christianity.

It’s a tone that David DeCosse, the religious and Catholic ethics director at Santa Clara University’s Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, said is not very Catholic. “Of course, it’s not possible to say it’s inherently incompatible with Catholicism,” he said. “But there definitely is a tension of stark division, of good and bad, Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and the left. At some point, that simply does not work with Catholicism.”
