The priests are being very careful on the pulpit. There are people gunning for the Church and looking for the opportunity to pull the tax exempt status. It seems that it is risky for Catholics to talk politics in church but it is ok for Blacks to talk politics in the Baptist Church. Any how, the word is definitely out from the pulpit that the abortion issue is more than a teaching of the Church, it is a violation of God's commandment against killing another human being. No one will say, but the implication is to weigh the candidates on this issue and vote accordingly.
Thank you very much for your insight. I agree with you totally that certain churches are used for purely political speeches before every important election. It never seems to get them or their party in any trouble. I was not aware people were trying to get the Catholic church's tax exempt status pulled, so really appreciated your post.
