It's a teaching moment. The electorate needs to be educated on the issue and on embryonic stem cell research and euthanasia. Archbishops Chaput, Wuerl, and Egan stepped up to the plate. They need to follow through.

The position of Biden, Pelosi, Kennedy, and John Kerry needs to be repudiated. The duties of Catholics in civic life to protect innocent life and to speak the truth about the sanctity of human life must be explained and taught clearly. Those politicians who refuse to conform to church teaching on this should suffer penalties including excommunication.

The Church MUST NOT back down this time. Too many lives are at stake in this election.

I agree, and from all the FR links posted above, some from LATimes and Newsweek, the coverage has been breath-taking!

This issue has turned into a major election issue, and I think we can thank many Catholics who have contacted their Bishops.

BTW, there is a voting guide available on USCCB. Haven’t really looked at it yet, but I got one.
