for George Floyd and called for racial justice, he spoke of growing up with a Catholic social doctrine that taught him"faith without works is dead."
And so Biden's stances on a range of social and environmental issues, Coons added, are not"casual political positions;" they're informed by his upbringing and go back, he said, to"a deeply rooted sense of fairness that he learned from his parents and from the nuns and priests who educated and helped raise him."
"He's very clear about justice," she said."When Joe Biden talks about faith, he talks very much about things like the Gospel of Matthew — 'what you've done to the least of my brother, you've done to me.'"
Will NPR be as complimentary to Amy Coney Barrett’s Catholic faith as they are to Biden’s? ..... I won’t hold my breath DefundNPR
Omg no please if this ain't another joke I dont know what is. Nice campaign promotion great time also.
Biden should be excommunicated as a result of the scandal caused by your article. He has publicly taken positions against the Church teaching which your article tries to legitimize as Catholic. It is not. This is the definition of scandal in Church Canon Law.
It does make sense...He must have been a priest before politics based on how much Biden likes to sniff and fondle children.
Except for killing babies
Fake news. Foreign bribes and kick backs are his religion for 47 years!!!
No one in my Parrish is voting for him.
Don’t worry, he won’t be elected!
Joe should say the pledge of allegiance every morning on social media (before trump thinks of it)
Hopefully he doesn’t win
Yea, but can he function without a teleprompter?
That self-declared evangelical Christians line up behind the amoral hate-monger who spends his every Sunday golfing, in opposition to an actual person of faith, tells you all you need to know about the depth - and colour - of their religion.
Biden’s supposed Catholic faith hasn’t prevented him from aiding in the murder of millions of unborn babies. That’s why you don’t hear Biden talk about it.
Men and women who pray know that hope is stronger than discouragement. They believe that love is more powerful than death, and that love will surely triumph one day, even if it be in times and ways we do not know. Prayer. VoteBlueToSaveAmerica Vote JoeBiden BidenHarris2020
that explains his attraction to children.
It’s so important to him except the abortion part. hypocrite
as a catholic i have a few problems with him he is pro abortion which makes me raise eyebrows and tbh he can be crazy and insensitive sometimes but i want him to win at the very least because he will help build back the economy solve the pandemic and take climate change action
SenFeinstein wouldn't like that
Biden doesn't try to impose his religious beliefs onto other people. Pro life = pro birth
? Um the Democrats keep “God out of their Politics. Even omitted “One Nation Under GOD”l They left that part out.
How the Catholic Church has fallen.
This part of Slow Joe’s faith
Joe is a real person of faith. So was Hillary, Barack, and even George. Trump is the closest to antichrist we've ever had. He's a pathological narcissist, an unrepentant liar and adulterer.
CathyJoeGPT Can anyone explain why the Catholic church is not supporting this man? Why does USCCB cnalive catholiccom support Barr or Pompeo in any way? Pontifex
CathyJoeGPT Now do where Drumpf went to church today.
Oh PLEASE! Religion?
He would be the first official moron.
You can't be a true Catholic and a Democrat. Like everything else about Joe, his 'faith' is a sham.
I look forward to the day when US elects an atheist president.
Of course it is. JoeBiden is a pedo like so any catholic priests. Fits right in.
No, it’s not central in how he sees anything
Why does that not surprise me? Let's vote for the guy that's written all the crime bills since 1977 that Trump is using to terrorize America. All those drug laws & police reforms you blame on Reagan, Bush Sr & Jr, Clinton... All Biden. Let's vote for Lucifer to vote out Satan.
Truly religious people live life with a compassionate view of the world. There’s no need for them to flaunt their beliefs, they live each day by them. That’s how being religious is supposed to work. It’s never used as a prop, for a photo op! Just there!
A true Catholic wouldn't support abortion...period.
”...his Catholic faith is central to how he sees the world.” You mean anti-choice, and women are second-class citizens? No thanks.
If advocating &being a proponent4the murder of innocent unborn babes were criteria 2be considered a good &faithful Catholic, then under that criteria joe Biden might be a rockstar catholic! However, it’s absolutely the opposite& a grave sin!Biden is about as catholic as Obama is!
Trying to fool us. Not a chance. Biden and his party shut down churches. There’s no excuse for that ever.
Joe Biden May claim he’s catholic, but his politics trump his faith! So who are you trying to manipulate NPR?
Except when it's comes to babies in the womb and forcing Nuns to pay for abortions.
He is not a Catholic, just pretends for some reason. True Catholics do not support and applaud the killing of babies. They suppport life from conception to natural death.
a church where 'men' are idolised + dishonesty rewarded. more pain + disappointment for women's rights + reproductive rights. Hopefully J.Biden can persuade this church to retract their toxic gender roles + protect all people from discrimination + hate WomensLivesMatter
All the birth control and yes that’s including condoms users on here talking about pro life 😂. What a hypocritical country
Is that what the touching children and sniffing people is about? I thought it was caused by the brain surgeries.
Actions speak louder than words
😂😂😂😂
Then why did he accept his son marrying his deceased brothers wife? Too weird!! Icky creepy & gross
That explains the kid sniffing
In other words, Biden is more Christian than Trump. At least he attends church
oh for fucks sake
He can call himself a ham sandwich on dark rye, but it doesn't mean he is one. Catholics do not support the wholesale slaughter of the unborn.
JoeBiden SenKamalaHarris democracynow Joe Biden is like JFK. Will be good for the whole country. Pass it on !! Vote2020 BidenHarris2020 VoteBlue
Hmmm...life long Catholic here...😎 I must have missed Church the day that the Catholic Church anounced it was Ok with Abortion. Hmmm.....
Maybe I can use that to get my idiot parents to vote for him instead of the Cheeto that they are dilusional about.
naturefineart Who knew ... his actions don't reflect his convictions.
So, Joe's faith is ok, but not Amy Coney Barrett's faith. Mmm, interesting.
Catholics will vote for Biden because we are not as fucked up as the mainline Christians. Is that what you call them?
Followed behind the only president to hold religion in contempt and reads his bible upside down. Oh who am I kidding. He don’t read anything! VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare VoteBlueDownBallot VoteOutEveryRepublican
how does he justify his support of abortion if his Catholic faith is so central to him
Joe Biden isn't Catholic. He's barely cogent. He sports abortion, which has been against Catholic teaching for 2000 years.
That's shocking. I thought Catholics were a huge voting block but I guess they are second to evangelicals. There's so much more money to be made in the evangelical tent 💰
Baby killers can't be true Catholics. Nice try though...
His faith is not compensation for his incompetence. Biden has been a life long politician with well documented track of pro corporate and surveillance state voting and legislation history. He has hurt the poor and minorities the most. No white washing from NPR could hide this.
Evangelicals have morphed into a twisted version of Christianity , mixing Trump worship and religious worship , believing TRUMP has a Devine right to lead both like he’s infallible. We haven’t seen this since the 14th century with the pope .
The first one met an untimely death!
Biden is Catholic in name only. Catholics cannot be pro choice concerning abortion.
Well if Trump can use Faith when choosing a judge why can't Biden use it a as Ascent
But the majority of the church won’t recognize him due to that pesky baby killing he supports
If elected joe vows to turn all power over to the Vatican. Leaving us to be ruled by a godless pope king.
So you're saying the entire catholic faith feels the same as Biden when it comes to unjust and unbalanced treatment of people of color.
It’s good most people don’t know it, because a person’s religion should be no one’s damn business, specially in politics.
That explains the kid groping
Omg. You’ve got to be kidding me. I thought Catholics weren’t supposed to support abortion. I can’t believe you are running this piece and you avoid all of the good stories about Trump. You are worthless
Watch spin Catholicism as a plus for Biden, and a negative for judge Amy Coney Barrett FillTheSeat PromisesMadePromisesKept Trump2020
LoL. He’s Pro Abortion. Please with the his faith Bullsh*t. He’s not a Christian nor is anyone else who supports the Butchery of Babies. Don’t lie to yourself. MAGA
Why even report this lie? Catholics don't believe in supporting the deaths of innocent babies. He chose Kamala... Mrs. PLANNED PARENTHOOD. Don't let these politicians lie to you. Vote Trump 2020 ♡
msnbc ABC etc. Instead of emphasizing a person’s religion, party, demography how about pointing out the way they live, the way they treat others, the way they care for our democracy, the character of their lives. Do a comparison article of our candidates.
🤢🤮
If you aren’t biased, this article will include information about the fact that Biden goes against some of the central tenants of the Church and isn’t allowed communion in some churches because of it.
Love the ‘staging of the photo. Oh so inclusive!
Hey NPR you forgot to say anything about Biden’s support of abortion. May you should find some other puff piece to support your candidate
I don’t know too many Catholics who are pro abortion. It’s almost as if he’s pandering.
Hmmmm, is that why he was refused communion
Please, Catholic by convenience.
Shouldn’t this alone help him win the vast majority of the Hispanic vote?
Catholics are against abortion. Joe Biden loves killing the unborn. Don’t play the religion card.
Maybe the second Catholic president but does not have the strength, character, and intelligence of the first one!!
Yikes
So now we know where his support comes from,
There aren't enough people of true faith in the government. I don't mean false witnesses like the liars in the senate. I mean people who know the difference between right and wrong and who believe in 'do unto others'.
Nope. Catholics do NOT support abortion
Except when it comes to killing unborn children
Oh my, got to build that evangelical base up!
The last time I checked the Catholic Church is against abortion specially at 9th months pregnancy, Biden and democrats love to kill babies for the big pharma .
Yes. It’s so important, he’s pro abortion.
Funny, he does not feel the need to use his faith as political currency. CHARACTER! That is why I will VoteBidenHarris2020
Or nominal Catholic since he disagrees with the Church on the fundamental issue of the sanctity of life.
Although I will be reluctantly voting for Biden this makes me uncomfortable. We will know America has really started to progress when we stop having leaders that feel the need to claim that they're religious, especially Christian. Looking forward to the first openly Atheist Pres.
At least Biden stops during the week to think about something other than himself. Some time in quietness never hurt anyone.

Impossible to be a true catholic and support abortion. Or the death penalty.
LOL, right.
I was raised Catholic. This does not impress me.
He is about as Catholic as he is Scranton. He may have once been...but he isn't any longer. God knows your name in womb. And more of God's teachings that he ignores for political efficiency. DefundNPR DefundPBS
i want a fucking secular president in a secular country please lol
Yet he favored partial birth abortion...? I can see how central it is to his “faith”.
Democrats will attack Judge Amy Barrett if she is nominated for the Supreme Court because she is a Catholic. Hypocrisy!
Title Translation: How NPRs bias and alliance with Democrats shapes Their stories and propaganda.
Except abortion and catholic organizations to follow their faith
Welp, that explains the inappropriate space-invading, hair sniffing of kids
BanReligion
Thanks for the news. I didn't know Catholics advocated for the murder of babies. Something to ponder when voting in November. CNN FoxNews JoeBiden realDonaldTrump jaketapper AC360
Practicing Catholics are no joke! Like someone else pointed out, their anti abortion stance is firm. I know, I left it & thus my family. JoeBiden & KamalaHarris we're gonna hold you accountable ASAP. I see your prior stance on incarceration too. AmericaOrTrump
JesusGeeks BidenHarris2020
If it's okay for Joe to have a Catholic pov, then I fully expect that no one will denigrate Amy Coney Barrett for the same thing, when she is questioned by the Senate Judiciary Committee, like she was by Democrats when she was up for confirmation as a US Circuit Judge.
Catholics must love enslaving black men if this is true
PROPAGANDA--NPR POLITICAL PROPAGANDA--'...people who know...' ? Similar to 'THE ATLANTIC' anonymous sources....YOU Can't support killing the un-born--to get votes, AND THEN rely on NPR to get CATHOLICS to vote for BIDEN. frfrankpavone brithume realDonaldTrump KarlRove
I'm sorry JoeBiden I'm not aware of any Catholic faith that is pro abortion am I missing something🤔 REMEMBER AllLivesMattter 💜💙
Can’t wait for Catholic Amy Coney Barrett to be confirmed to the Supreme Court!
Ya Catholics aren’t big on killing babies. It’s kinda a big deal. I don’t imagine many Hindus would highlight the fact that they’re a beef dealer if they’re running for office. Have you seen many holocaust-deniers becoming Rabbis lately?
Except that he can't take communion due to his approval and promotion of abortion...
The majority of SCOTUS is now Catholic. What's your point?
So? Catholic are very discredited around the world... maybe that's why he doesn't highlighted it....
The man has cheered on war his entire political career. Joe Biden doe not know the love of The Christ.
Then he will agree with the new Supreme Court nomination🤔. Somehow I doubt it...
Not a good thing. We need a leader who doesn't believe in fairy tales
Catholics are Pro Life
He is not a Catholic. No true practicing Catholic supports the murder of the unborn.
Oh the picture from Kenosha where they had planted and scripted questions. Got it. This guys gonna sit and negotiate with decision makers and foreign leaders.
Get ready for serious anti-catholic sentiment to come out during the appointment of the new Supreme Court justice. Just another layer of hypocrisy.
A pro abortion Catholic who supports partial birth abortions? If the church wasn’t cowardly JoeBiden would have been excommunicated years ago, along with that other fake catholic SpeakerPelosi .
I hope 'papal stooge' makes a comeback.
jfk almost didn’t get elected because he was catholic. evangelicals believe humans rode dinosaurs and noah’s ark was real. and they are running the show with that insanity. so don’t rule out a catholic. i can’t wait for a logical agnostic president
cock eyed
They hated Kennedy kids because he was a Catholic. Fact check it
Especially the baby killing part.....
No Catholic ever would write the 1994 crime bill, right?
NPR is 💩
