I don’t believe Bishop Steib is being wishy-washy. He speaks of abortion as a great evil, he’s just trying to walk a fine line in his pronouncements. Clearly he can’t name one candidate who is most in line with Catholic teaching, and say “vote for that one”. He is trying to teach those Catholics who have bought into the ‘Seamless Garment’ idea that they have been taught incorrectly. Yes, all those other Social Justice issues about which they are so concerned are important, but the right to life is paramount, and overrules all the others.
I just didn’t think he sounded strong enough. Perhaps if I met him in person I would have a different opinion.
Words..............bah!
