Huh? I have a Catholic voter's guide book at home.

Hmm. That's odd, cuz here in my handy dandy Evangelical Protestant's Voting Guide Book it says:

Matthew 16:26 (KJV) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

;)

Well not everyone uses the King James version, in case you didn’t notice. And I’m not quite sure what the quote has to do with “losing your soul” if you vote for someone like Rudy to stop someone like Hillary. Lesser of two evils or greater of two evils? Take your pick.

Umm, didn’t Jesus shed a little light on this when he rebuked the Pharisees and so on for their exaggerated sense of moral superiority?

Wasn’t pulling the ox out of the ditch on the Sabbath a lesson in balancing practical realities with spiritual realities?

Of course man must choose the lesser of two evils if doing so stops, or potentially, stops the greater evil. Doing otherwise would be morally repugnant.
