Religion as a personal moral underpinning to life is perfect.

Religion in politics is always evil because ultimately it is about justifying political power though "the end justifies the means"

Secular ideologies can end up similarly; it is unavoidable with religion as it's all about life and death.

Politicians that insist on religious values almost always want these to apply to others, not to themselves.

Pope Francis said:

“Christian love is not a concentric expansion of interests that little by little extend to other persons and groups,” he wrote. “The true ordo amoris that must be promoted is that which we discover by meditating constantly on the parable of the ‘Good Samaritan’ . . . that is, by meditating on the love that builds a fraternity open to all, without exception.”

Text Shot: A clip had circulated of Vance defending Trump’s “America First” policies. “As an . . . American citizen your compassion belongs first to your fellow citizens,” he told Sean Hannity of Fox News. “There’s this old school — and I think it’s a very Christian — concept . . . that you love your family, and then you love your neighbour, and then you love your community, and then you love your fellow citizens in your own country, and then after that, you can focus and prioritise the rest of the world.” Rory Stewart, the British politician-turned-centrist-dadcaster, took issue with Vance’s “bizarre take”, describing it on X as “less Christian and more pagan tribal”, and suggested that when “politicians become theologians” we should all be concerned.
