They can't stand the Christian love, kindness, warmth, and acceptance they get from Republicans like you. Too rich for their metabolism.

So you seem to be saying that Catholics do not act based on what God says in the Bible.

They have to be cajoled in some way, "bribed" by either financial gain, or some kind of emotional touchy-feely ecumenicalism before they will vote responsibly?

People go into the voting booth ALL ALONE. They answer, ultimately to GOD, not Jerry Fallwell or me.

The way you describe Catholics, they sound like the blacks who won't vote unless there is some financial gain involved. Morality is not what motivates them but rather having their personal nest feathered in some way.

Interesting.

Your statement that Catholics vote overwhelmingly Democratic is clearly bearing false witness. So why don't we start by explaining why you did what the eighth commandment says not to so? (oops, you guys have a different numbering system, don't you, I guess that would be the ninth?)

People who are voting pro-abort aren't "acting based on what God says in the Bible," whether they're Catholics, Baptists, Buddhists, Zoroastrians ...

That's practically tautological. Of course, they may be doing it out of ignorance or just plain stupidity.

OTOH, Catholics who actually practice Catholicism and believe in it, don't vote pro-abort. For instance, there are some guys in my Opus Dei meetings who make you look like a flaming liberal.
