49. The Pope is anti gay and opposes all of our rights, his Golden Rule is tarnished brass.

Bernie is going to have to reassert his positions on LGBT equality and choice very strongly if he is going to claim his message and the Pope's are the same.
Look at Uganda, which is 44% Catholic, 7.2% living with HIV, 60,000 deaths from AIDS a year, 13% of Ugandans have ever used a condom. The RCC tells them not to use condoms. The RCC has focused for years in Uganda on those 'anti gay' laws. Meanwhile, with a population one tenth that of the US, more than ten times more Ugandans die from AIDS than Americans.

Golden Rule? Tell me another one!
