[Mr. Silverback]

Some of the folks on FR, you would not believe the hassle they were giving pro-life supporters of Arnold. Canticle of Deborah even told me I'd have to justify my support to God someday, because I didn't vote for the pro-life candidate. I find it hard to imagine the Almighty would be mad at me for choosing the vote that would keep a pro-abortion racist from ascending to the governor's chair and handing out licenses to any jihadi who walked into a DMV and pretended to be from Tiajuana. She also said (and I'm not busting on her specifically, just using her as an example) that Arnold also supported the immigrant license law, and when I proved he was against it, she didn't budge a millimeter. Some people hear pro-choice and just lose their minds. Believing that California would suddenly become a safety zone for fetuses if McClintock won was Pollyannaism, but believing that you're better off voting for a guy who can't possibly win is just goofy.

Mr. Silverback......I'm going out on a limb on this thread, but do you see a difference in the tenor of the posters who see abortion as a spiritual battle vs. those who are more politically motivated?

It has been my observation that those pro-lifers who are most vicious against people who vote like you did...... from a strong pro-life perspective, but a grasp of the bigger picture..... are not demonstrating the fruit of the Spirit, but rather a primarily politically motivated anger toward anyone who doesn't toe their political line. And they often use their own self-perceived moral superiority as a weapon against their political foes.

Would it not be decorous to ping the person you're gossiping about?
