Brianna Coyle @politics.bcoyle.org · 21/08/2026Lol, good. Unlike the teachings of the far-right Evangelical types, Catholicism is not anti-social nor alarmist & anti-science. The Church has pretty explicitly said they view vaccination as a moral obligation to the common good. The opinions of individual anti-vax "Catholics" are irrelevant. 2238
