You, and Santorum, are living embodiments of the below principal.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.

- C.S. Lewis

Your C.S. Lewis quote, he was a little prejudiced, growing
up in Belfast. I think he was Catholic in his heart.

You have to help others realize you can’t support pro-
aborts. It’s a sin on your soul and must be confessed. Obama, a Herod is the maximum pro-abort, Romney, less murderous but he legislated abortion in Massachusetts.

No one has seen a change, an action on his part to believe Mitt is for life now.

“Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is a holiest object presented to your senses.”
C.S. Lewis
