WikiLeaks Dump: Top Clinton Aides Mock Catholicism, Evangelical Christianity
New revelations from the latest WikiLeaks dump has key Hillary Clinton aides and allies taking heat after they are caught attacking two major faith groups--evangelicals and Catholics-- in email correspondence.
The 2011 email chains are between Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri, Campaign Chairman John Podesta and John Halpin from the Center for American Progress, Trace Gallagher reported.
Halpin characterizes some members of the Catholic church as being engaged in an "amazing bastardization of the faith."
Halpin continues, criticizing 21st Century Fox Chairman Rupert Murdoch, CEO of Fox News, and NewsCorp Chairman Robert Thomson for raising their children Catholic, Gallagher reported:
"They must be attracted to the systemic thought and severely backward gender relations," he writes.
Podesta, a Catholic, does not directly respond in the correspondence.
"I imagine they think it the is the most socially acceptable, politically conservative religion--their rich friends wouldn't understand if they became evangelicals" Palmieri says of the two men.
