Sorry, yeah that did go a little OT. (I did try not to go on too much about the works VS faith argument). Yeah, I do have a lot of personal respect and love for JRM as a person. I never used to be as far right as I am on various issues but conservatives / Republicans were the ones who always remained opposed to abortion / God in the public square etc so I could easily reconcile some of my other positions pretty easily. Obviously I would never compromise my faith so I steered closer to those who shared it - the likes of JRM do so I stood by his membership of the house. Yes, I may not agree with Dr Fox on much but as a pro life Catholic who is opposed to gay marriage I would definitely support either him or Phillip Hammond to become the next PM if it had to be one of the current cabinet ministers. (Hammond was opposed to the gay marriage bill, too). Even though Hammond was a remain campaigner and Fox was adamant on leaving the EU they commonality on faith makes their social stances rise above whatever differences they have over Europe.
