Virgil Goode. Prolife - supports traditional marriage.

Uh, ok.

Just an FYI, supporting Iran isn’t a prolife position, it’s a pro Israel death position.

Also, giving terrorists constitutional rights is not a prolife position...
:o)

I also question his seriousness. If he was for real, why didn’t he jump in the Republican primary? Too much work? Too hard?

Someone that’s on the ballot in all 50 states and actually has a chance odd winning mathematically. Romney isn’t even close to my first choice, but I don’t care, even if he’s a step above a cockroach, he’s better than Obama, and at least we have a chance of him appointing semi conservatives to the SC, but with Obama we have no chance of getting anything except Marxists appointed.

I don’t mean to start a religious war, but I’ve often observed that if American Catholics voted their theology we wouldn’t be in this mess to begin with.

Lol! Well, I can safely say that I didn't start any religious war on this thread. It was already raging!

Good for this archbishop!

As conservative Protestants, now we have to do some work in our own circles to get our own houses in order.

Roman Catholics will excommunicate pro-abortion politicians. I think most local conservative Reformed and Lutheran churches would do the same. Perhaps we finally have the critical mass needed to get our synods and general assemblies to take a similar stance to that of the Roman Catholic Church, which on this point is correct.

Baptists, charismatics, and broad evangelicals have a different political tradition and often have different views of church government so I realize that step would be much harder for them, but I think Calvinists and Lutherans (at least in the Wisconsin Synod and Missouri Synod, and in the PCA, OPC, and maybe EPC) might be ready to take that step.

Official synodical and general assembly position papers opposing abortion mean very little if members are free to advocate baby-killing and sodomy without consequences. I think it's time for Calvinists take action to implement our teaching on church discipline being the third mark of the true church, and for Lutherans to take whatever action is consistent with their own theology to discipline open advocates of gross public sin.
