Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic Ping List:

Add me / Remove me

Please ping me to all note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.

First of all I'm a Roman Catholic and I don't know any Catholics who reads this tripe. Second, I know many Roman Catholics who will vote for Rudy in a NY Minute. Third Roman Catholics don't like to let the church (especially the Roman Catholic Church) decide for them who to vote for when it comes to politics. We can leave that kind of stuff to the Democrats and the Black Churches.
Interesting comments areafiftyone. I am inviting some of our fellow Catholics to weigh in on your opinions here.

The Church has a responsibility to educate voters regarding the principles behind just voting, since in a democracy, the people have a responsibility to vote properly.

The fundamental purpose of the State is the advancement of the temporal welfare of its citizens. It necessarily follows that the primary duty of the State is to defend the lives of its citizens. Any politician who advocates laws tolerating the killing of innocent people is unworthy of holding any public office.
