ROME — The Atlantic has likened the rosary to an AR-15 assault weapon in an incendiary attack Sunday on conservative Catholics.

“Just as the AR-15 rifle has become a sacred object for Christian nationalists in general, the rosary has acquired a militaristic meaning for radical-traditional (or ‘rad trad’) Catholics,” writes Toronto-based Daniel Panneton in an Atlantic article released the day before the Catholic feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (August 15).

Never mind that the highest-profile rosary-wielding U.S. Catholic is President Joe Biden, Panneton powers forward, alleging darkly that armed radical traditionalists “have taken up a spiritual notion that the rosary can be a weapon in the fight against evil and turned it into something dangerously literal.”

So the Atlantic doesn't want Christians to have an identity or to think that their families should be defended from morality that is found to be reprobate? Why is it that there are no articles like this about Muslims, short of the occasional one about head covering? We all know the answer.

An "woke" anti-gun, anti-christian, anti-American Canadian wrote that story.

An "woke" anti-gun, anti-christian, anti-American Canadian wrote that story.

And at least one editor approved it.

So much gold to dig out of that story.
