"I can't take my Catholic belief, my article of faith, and legislate it on a Protestant or a Jew or an atheist," he continued."

From what I read, there are lots of Protestants, Jews and atheists who oppose abortion. (There's even a gay group formed to oppose it!) Anyway, Kerry has no "Catholic beliefs."

He is so utterly disgusting! (On the other hand, his internal polling must be showing his pro-abort stand and votes -- e.g., his leading the NARAL pro-abort pep rally around January -- is hurting him.)

Kerry is running on his Catholicity. He brought it into the race, posed for photo-ops, and courted the Catholic ethnicity. He has only himself to blame.

Besides, for a faithful Catholic, receiving Communion at a Protestant church as he did at an AME church is anathema.

He has denied the basic tenet of the faith which is the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

Kerry is confused. Abortion is NOT a "Separation of church and state" issue. Opposition to legal abortion is not due to revealed theology or some esoteric theological mystery exclusively tied to Catholicism. That an unborn child is a living human being is scientific fact. It's not a frog or a stone.
