What's new

Election year 2020

The Right to Life movement is too busy with Live and Let Die protests at state capitals to worry about abortion at the moment. Call back later.
 
I have NEVER had a religious organization tell me how to vote.

UNION members HAVE "encourage me" (and by that I mean the implementation of fear tactics) to vote a certain way.

If you have had a church tell you how to vote then your experience has been much different than mine.
Back in 2004, when I was a practicing Catholic, I was at Sunday Mass. For the "sermon", we had an audio recording of the bishop where he said a good Catholic could only vote for the "pro life" candidate. There are 3 tests to pro life in the church. Oppose abortion. Oppose the death penalty. Oppose "unjust war". So I put the bishops word to the test....One candidate did not oppose abortion, but did oppose the death penalty and a war that the vatican deemed unjust. The other candidate opposed abortion, and up to that point as a governor of his state oversaw more executions than any other governor in history, and who started the unjust war. I voted for the candidate that met 2 of the 3 tests, but as it turned out, they wanted me to vote for the other guy.

Nope. To evengelicals, Catholics aren't Christian. Indeed, the only use that "the moral majority" has for Catholics is their opposition to abortion.

Don't try and spin what I said K.C.!........ I did not say "Catholics were not Christian's:!

There you go again, pulling stories out of your behind. You never were anything more then what you are today. An lying insufferable bore.

I'm going to have to call BS.

That's your right. I know what I heard. And it's the straw that broke the camels back and made me drop out of the church. For them it was all about abortion. And why do evenglicals and the moral majority support an amoral person? Because of the Supreme court...which they hope will one day to overturn Roe v Wade. Just abortion. When Trump was younger, he used to brag about navigating the vaginal land mines in NYC clubs...calling it his personal Vietnam. He doesn't strike me as one who would take time to don a condom in his assault on the mound of Venus...so I wonder how many abortions this "pro life" candidate may have paid for in his sexual career.

If Pro Life is all that it took to "break the camels back" then that camels backbone must have been as weak as yours.

REad closer. It's more than "pro life" as the bishop was talking more about pro fetus. The candidate he wanted be to vote for broke 2 of the three tests for pro life.
