Default Re: Politics and the Church

Let's come back to something that relates to us LCer's.

One of Trump's top picks for the Supreme is 46 yr old Amy Coney Barrett.

Amy is a character that we might relate to. She and her family "are members of in a controversial religious group that asks members to take a lifetime loyalty 'covenant', encourages female submission to their husbands, and helped inspire publication of The Handmaid's Tale, a dystopian novel about theocratic government" : a small cult that goes by "People of Praise."

Trump's female Supreme Court favorite belongs to a Christian group which helped inspire The Handmaid's Tale and tells her to submit to her husband - and members believe they healed teen girl by laying on of hands
