“I don’t see how a person can separate their public life from their private life or from their faith,” Ryan said. “Our faith informs us in everything we do. My faith informs me about how to take care of the vulnerable, of how to make sure that people have a chance in life.”

But that is exactly what Catholic politicians do when supporting abortion. They want the virtue of religious belief in one box and the payoff of political practice in another, one quite separate from the other.

That someone like Ryan actually has to make such a statement in public is a testimony to the shallow morality of the political class. That a persons religious beliefs would inform their actions was once taken for granted and thus became a factor in voting either for or against them.

Now in the campaigns to even hint at such is taboo and invites charges of bigotry and “fundamentalism”.

Ryan makes a good point, Of what value is claiming a faith that does NOT inform a persons actions?

I hope you noticed that Ryan did NOT support abortion!

You can’t speak in blanket statements for ALL Catholics when you post here......or are you?
