It is election time for President of the United State once again. Yet when it comes to the issue of abortion we are far from a united people. Unfortunately many “Catholics” freely choose to support and vote for politicians that think it appropriate to allow so called “doctors” to kill the lives of innocent human beings provided that the pathetic stipulation is in place that the newly created person hasn’t made it outside their mother’s womb.
If a newly create person can be killed for solely subjective reasons that one or two of the three co-creators don’t want it, then the same “logic” can be propagated to the killing any grouping of people on the basis of any false argument. Unfortunately we have many “Catholic” politicians, who are either poorly formed in their faith, or who are satisfied with having worldly fame, that help hold up the obamanation of abortion.
Personally I have been disappointed by George W. Bush’s eight years in office with exception of his initial handling of 9/11 and of his Supreme Court appointments of two men, John Roberts and Sam Alito, who appear to know that abortion is wrong.
If Catholics truly voted pro-life as whole then we would have two pro-life candidates running for President right now instead of just one. If Catholics truly voted pro-life it is safe to say Roe v. Wade would have already been over turned if had ever been decided in the first place. If Catholics truly voted pro-life as a whole I would have the opportunity to vote for someone on the Democrat’s ticket, but until such time I will be voting my, hopefully, properly formed conscience. I will only be voting for Pro-Life candidates.
Abortion is GRAVE matter and if I can agree with a candidate on the abortion issue, then I can probably come to a compromise with them on all the other non-grave matters.
Let us pray for all our political representatives that they may know the infinite value of every person from conception to natural death.
