      Disappointed in this because it's more of a Protestant position than a Catholic one. https://twitter.com/Vermeullarmine/status/1508373144742113281 …

      I mean it's not my lane but it was the Puritans who banned the theater whereas the one true church gave us the mystery plays and also (I think the evidence is clear on this) Shakespeare.

          Catholic France wouldn't bury actors in holy ground while Protestant England buried Anne Oldfield in Westminster Abbey.

          They also tried to ban chairs as an "invention of satan," I'm given to understand. https://archive.org/details/bbc-co-uk-p00f4f39 …

          I suppose that makes the Church of England the one true church. They certainly weren't considered Protestant back then - and there's still high Anglicans who think they are more Catholic than the Roman Catholics.

          Apparently he has blocked me, liberal Catholic that I am & therefore the worst kind of apostate, so if can do a cut and paste of his tweet, I would be appreciate it.

          Church and priests are the theatre kids of moral and political oppression. Lawyers are the theatre kids of colonialism and power. Politicians are the theatre kids of nations and kleptocracy. Teachers are the theatre kids of history, lies and truth. Actors and comedians r us all.

          This is from your comment about freedom convoy folks being he theatre kids of the right. So 😂. But priests politicians teachers lawyers and actors are all cut from the same cloth in my experience and readily move btwn those roles.
