The tragedy is that Catholics could have really made a difference in this country. I work for a Catholic Church in New York and the only ones voting for John McCain are me and the Pastor — everyone else is an Obama kool-aide drinker. When you bring up the abortion issue, they counter it with the Iraq war and poverty in America, as though that’s suppose to neutralize the argument. God help us — NOTHING TRUMPS ABORTION!! — but they don’t understand this or they don’t want too.
Tell them that the Bible has many times commanded both wars and capital punishment, but it never commanded or condoned abortion.
“When you bring up the abortion issue, they counter it with the Iraq war and poverty in America, as though that’s suppose to neutralize the argument.”
See Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.” That’s a ploy, pure and simple.
You probably won’t get through to them, but if you can get someone to agree to consider the issues separately, you might.
