Depending on the type of contraception used, that doesn't seem as bad as abortion and abortafacients.
I'll go with the principle of double effect and vote Republican or not vote at all. I can't in good conscience vote for any Democrat, no matter how good they might be personally, because of what their party sanctions and stands for today, not all of it is that bad, but the bad is just too bad.
The Republicans are culpable in killing, too, especially the disabled and elderly, and some of them are pro choice.
I'm under no illusion that the GOP is a perfect pro-life party, but I think you need to explain that remark.
Any individual is capable of any evil thing, and many do not abide by their professed principles. That's just how it is.
But you have to go with the declared statement of a group or party. I don't know what would happen if the GOP dropped the pro-life plank; I'd probably vote for them because I think they're better on security and don't want to control my every waking moment, but my big moral commitment would be gone. That said, there's no Dem I have seen that I would vote for on any grounds.
By criticizing "no fault" divorce, the bishop is 100% SPOT ON: this is a criticism of a state granting a divorce for no other reason other than one person wants out of the marriage.
No-Fault Divorce = disposable marriage
The state, up until the 1950s, had always considered marriage to be an incredibly important institution that provided stability to society.
Today marriage is on par with the relationship between a pet and its owner.
