So, she began arguing with commission about anti-semitism. She had recently converted from Christianity to Catholic. So she challenged the commission members if anti- semitism was the same as anti-Zionism.
She said - as a Catholic she does not embrace Zionism, She said “Catholics do not embrace Zionism, just so you know, So are all Catholics antisemites?
( then mayhem broke loose) I’m writing this as an atheist who grew up Catholic leaving the church as a teenager when I read a book in my Dad’s bookcase “Why I am not a Christian by Bertrand Russel.
Hearing became crazy heated and she was dismissed from council. She attempted to bring 4 anti war rabbis in to argue her side and it wasn’t allowed. So she took to social media to argue her side and that pissed the council off big time - hence THREATS, So she was fired by ultra right, super Christian nationalist Texas, tea party Dan Patrick- who is Texas Attorney General.
Glad to see more and more Republican woman hate Trump. Candace Owens also now hates Trump as does MTG.
This only caught my attention because I met a woman in my tiny town named Prejean and I had never heard that name before. So when I saw Connie Prejean it spiked my interest. I’ve never been into religion as an adult and my boyfriend hates the Catholic Church because he was indoctrinated from 5 to 22 Jesuit college - Le Moyne- Just got interested over her name and also interesting so many Republican Christians are turning to Catholic faith - Tucker, Candace, Connie Prejean, JD Vance, Newr Gingrich, etc
My hip hurts and I might need new hip so I’m spending more time on my couch than usual - reading stuff I never would have. Anyway- I like stories of Republican women seeing the light. Most all my friends are Dems but I have 2 women Republican friends. Both are not that political but their husbands are. I can see one of them really questioning Trump. I never bring up politics with them - but am seeing one getting pissed off at Trump’s policies.
