The Church should have a role to play in the running of the State. The political sphere and the religious sphere inevitably overlap.

I assume you are one of those "based and redpilled" people who think the Catholic Church was "ruined forever" by Vatican 2. In which case, I'd advise you, for your own sake, not to see what the Church of England actually gets up to these days. It will just break your heart even further.

Fuck all the faggot Baby Boomer Catholics. Fuck them and fuck all their faggot priests. They have ruined the Church, with their fucking trash art and their fucking trash music and their absolute filthy degeneracy. Fuck the Silent Generation Catholics too, they were just as faggoty. Fuck their trash. All those disgusting faggot priests. Either they were shitty or they were pedophiles. They have besmirched and defiled the grandeur and beauty of the One True Church. I hate them so much. I would love to put all the faggot Baby Boomer Catholics into a camp and just starve them to death. Fuck them. That's what they deserve.

How come all the really interesting political stuff on the right-wing these days is almost exclusively Catholic? Not just Deneen, but guys like Adrian Vermeule, and those integralists over at The Josias. Even more mainstream "neo" right-wingers like Sohrab Ahmari are Catholic converts. Even among fringe stuff like The American Sun or the old NRx sphere, the most interesting writers are/were always Catholic, maybe with a few Orthodox thrown in for good measure.

Leviathan is fundamentally anti-Catholic because it rejects the Church's position that it should have influence over the State. Instead, it posits a State that has supreme dominion over all within its borders, even the Church. Yet, if we accept what Catholicism teaches, then the Church has universal jurisdiction, including over States and their sovereigns.
