Biden likes to flaunt his supposed faith around like a shiny toy. He wants you to think he is incredibly devout.
But this Catholic Archbishop eviscerated Joe Biden in a scathing CBS interview.
Democrats vacillate between trying to co-opt Christianity and outright rejecting everything about the religion.
Joe Biden is firmly in the former camp, ensuring that he never strays from the liberal orthodoxy while also pretending to be a faithful Catholic.
But one only needs to briefly survey his policy positions to realize he’s anything but a faithful disciple.
He has pushed pro-abortion extremism throughout all nine months of a pregnancy, which runs completely contrary to what the Catholic Church teaches.
He supports same-sex marriage, another inadmissible belief under Catholic dogma.
But his most recent revolt has been his support for so-called gender transition.
The Biden administration observed “Transgender Day of Visibility” on Easter Sunday, following much criticism for legally recognizing the gender identity event on the same day as the religious holiday.
President Joe Biden wrote on X on Sunday, “On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate the joy, strength, and absolute courage of some of the bravest people I know.”

He went on to say, “Today, we show millions of transgender and nonbinary Americans that we see them, they belong, and they should be treated with dignity and respect.”
The White House also announced Transgender Day of Visibility on Sunday.
Transgender Americans are part of the fabric of our nation.

This led to condemnation by plenty of conservatives, but also one of the most important members of the Catholic Church.
The Archbishop of Washington, Wilton Cardinal Gregory, chastised President Joe Biden over the weekend, labeling him a “cafeteria Catholic.”
On Sunday, the Archbishop spoke on CBS News’ Face The Nation with anchor Ed O’Keefe, who asked him, “In the case of the president, do you get the sense that his regular attendance and adherence to the faith resonates with American Catholics?”
“I could say that he’s very sincere about his faith, but like a number of Catholics, he picks and chooses dimensions of the faith to highlight while ignoring or even contradicting other parts,” the Archbishop answered.
“There is a phrase that we have used in the past, a cafeteria Catholic, you choose that which is attractive and dismiss that which is challenging.”
“Is there something on the menu he’s not ordering, in your view, so to speak?” O’Keefe pushed.
“Well, I would say there are things, especially in terms of the life issues, there are things that he chooses to ignore or he uses the current situation as a political pawn rather than saying, look, my church believes this,” the Archbishop replied.
“He does attend church regularly with great, you know, devotion. But he also steps aside some of the hot-button issues or uses the hot-button issues as a political tool, which it’s not – it is not the way I think we would want our faith to be used.”
The Archbishop may have been a tad too generous for our liking, but his point remains: Biden is not full-throated Catholic. He’s a political shill using a guise of faith to push radical ideas.
