Obama Catholics CINOs
the Catholic hierarchy(Bishops) tends to speak about voting in the theoretic rather than the practical. Since 1980, the republicans have been pro-life and the Democrats pro-abortion. On social justice issues, concern for the poor, establishing and maintaining a safety net the republicans have agreed with all this but with spending less and making the programs more accountable to prevent fraud. Any time a republican speaks of reducing fraud in one of these social justice programs to possibly save some money or reduce one of these programs a bit because of financial constraints(every year we borrow to spend on our yearly budget), the democrats run to the main stream media and scream that republicans want to starve people, kill grandma or worse.
Some people, DEMOCRATIC VOTERS, make the simple analogy that Democrats are tend to be closer to Catholic teaching on treatment of the poor and needy, and republicans tend to be closer to Catholic teaching on family and life issues.
This ignores the broader strokes of reality in politics. The democrats are for every sexual and cultural deviancy. The Democratic Party has every anti-Catholic position sitting at the conference table waiting for their turn to push their agenda in the realm of sexuality, abortion, anti-religion. Whereas the Republican Party is the only cultural force outside of Christianity and the Catholic Church that opposes this cultural tide. Unfortunately, it can be said for both the Republican Party and the Catholic(Christian) churches is that they have served as an ineffectual doorstop against a door that is intending to swing wide open.
A Catholic who votes democratic is an unwitting enemy of his own religion, God and Gods people. Like the 1st century through 3rd century Rome ....there will be martyrs.
Yes, yes, yes, you are so right.
I had an argument with a friend, who attends Mass weekly, sometimes even daily who will vote once again for Obama and all the Democrats on the ballot for the very reasons you listed.
I brought up abortion and got no reaction, no response except that the Republicans hate the poor, hate women and will take from them all the things the Democrats have given them.
“I would not have a job helping the poor if it wasn’t for Democrats!” she declared.
I asked her, “Why do you have to have a job from the government to help the poor?”
No response, and since then I haven’t spoken to her though we always smile at each other when we happen to meet.
Sad, sad, sad.
Oh yeah, because non Catholic Christians all know the real Christ of Scripture.
(These are old numbers showing how favor with Obama has deteriorated.)
LOL! Mrs. Don-o posted a hilarious picture about "and also with you' a couple of weeks ago.
--> yes, that's the various beliefs outside of orthodoxy --> various "evang" groups/cults have broken up so quickly and split up over and over agian, they are adequate proof that they are built on sand....
In contract orthdoxy continues, thanks to God's grace --> the Catholic/Orthodox/Oriental Church continues, while the chaff in the non-Apostolic Church just dissipate over and over
That’s sheer nonsense from Evangmlw’s posts like: No, Jesus never drank strong drink and He didnt create 150 gallons of rotten juice to throw a drunken party. Jesus Christ never created anything tainted, and fermented juice is tainted.
Any Westboro baptist is hardly acting Christian at all...
Ann Barnhardt calls out the bishops with regularity.
ROTFL! LOVE it! I was telling a friend about this picture at Mass last Sunday!
WOW! Thanks for that responnse. It is a very clear, concise description of what is happening in our society regarding morals and applying them to voting habits.
