Ah, fair enough.
McCain claims to be prolife, yet he allows abortion in cases of rape and incest. Catholic Faith teaches that one must be prolife at all stages of life, regardless of circumstances. Rape and incest are despicable crimes and sins, but the unborn is innocent. Two wrongs don’t make it right. Abortion under any circumstance is NOT prolife, therefore, McCain is NOT prolife.
Second, McCain has also voted for funding of embryonic stem cell research. Again, this is an act of direct destruction of human life. Not acceptable. McCain is NOT prolife.
Third, on the Terri Schiavo case, McCain was wishy-washy at best. “Nuanced” like some of our bad bishops — translation — snake oil salesman.
In order to enjoy the title of prolife, one must not take any stance against prolife positions. This applies to all, catholics and non-catholics alike.
These are major issues, but there are others. We judge them by their actions, not just words.
Now the question for you is, are you prolife? Or do you also accept abortion under certain circumstances? Do you support embryonic stem cell research? If you are on the same side of McCain on these issues, then you are also NOT prolife. If you are on the opposite side of McCain, then you too must declare he is NOT prolife.
btw, now I know you didn’t even bother to look at the Google references I gave earlier. Look there. Do your homework and come prepared.
As to facts speaking louder than words, Senator McCain has endured hideous torture from witnessing his faith and has adopted a child who would certainly not have survived to adulthood otherwise. His actions speak far louder than typing words on an internet internet forum.
