No American should be denied their right to vote by mail, and thankfully the U.S. Supreme Court agrees. Our elections are safe and secure, and Trump's attempts to cast doubt without evidence are a desperate attempt to rig the midterms in his favor. It's not working.

When Barrett and Roberts chide us for accusing the Court of, in Catholic terms, committing the sin of acceptio personarum - and they are, self-evidently - you must understand it on this level. They are afraid of Hell, and my source for that is Scripture and the Summa Theologiae.

The thing about the court's conservative Catholics is that if they admit that they have any bias whatsoever when rendering their judgements - which, of course they do - then they are admitting to committing some of the worst sins in Catholic moral theology
