Note to my Catholic Democrat brothers and sisters:
In this world you may have either knowledge or repose; but you may not have both.
Your Church and your religious freedoms are under an ongoing attack being carried out under the direct control of Barack Obama, a man many of your helped put in office. While you were taking care of yourselves and your families and trusting in the wrong people, your Democrat Party has turned on you and your Church. You must now choose which one to stand with.
There may have been a time long ago when we could be both good Catholics and good Democrats but that alliance is now a relic of the past.
Holding on to the comfort of uninformed robotic voting...

I wonder about any Christian that votes democrat.
My Pittsburgh neighbors have been having it both ways for about fifty years now. And the local Church leaders seem more than willing to go along for the ride.
Collection Basket Uber Alles!
Democrats promote abortion, homosexuality, and a general loosening of moral standards. Heck at the last Democrat convention they boo’d the inclusion of God and Israel in their platform! Tell me, how can you be one and vote with the other?
Even if your particular Congressman, or whomever, professes to be against abortion, nonetheless, by putting that person in office you support the Democrat Party and you support their ability to control the agenda for America.
Shame on you.
in the neighborhood I grew up in it was 99% Catholic and around 85% Democrat. most the people were either Union or worked in Govt. Jobs...
as long as the Dhimmicrats pandered to these folks economically they did not care to change parties, they were mostly oblivious to any ‘politics’ and mostly only cared about how much money they were taking home.
considering the economy that may change but don't expect it to change because of any constitutional issues....
Thanks to the Liberation “Social Justice” thelology that saturates the Catholic church, and all Christian churches, for that matter, “good” Christians of all flavors will continue to vote DemonRAT without one pang of conscience, because the message they’re getting from their leadership is that “Social Justice” trumps everything.
A clear majority of “Catholics”, and many “Evangelicals” voted for 0bama and support 0bama-care and amnesty for illegals for because of this.
And they would do it again, and again.
There are “Catholics” in my family who would vote DemonRAT even in the face of excommunication, because it’s “the moral thing to do” from their perspecive, and that God is on their side in this.
They really, really, REALLY believe that.
“Good Democrat” is an oxymoron.
It is infuriating. I say that as a Catholic. I was scolded on this site for actually mentioning that there is a big problem with liberals in the priesthood and sisterhood - citing bus loads of nuns lining up for Obama votes. The false notion that democrats care about the poor is what gets them every time.
There are some that fall for the siren song of “good works through no personal sacrifice” that the ‘rats offer.
God will surely decide - and He doesn’t discriminate on the basis of political party.
My sister does because of globull warming (”just in case it exists”) and they “care for the poor”. I get up, and go out in the woods, and SCREAM!!
I have two Lutheran pastors as relative, both Rats!! GAAAAAHH!
Do you know who started almost all the hospitals in this country? That's right, Catholics. And without any government assistance. They did this mostly to care for the poor. Now, they want the government to confiscate other people's money and do what they themselves are no longer willing to do.
Do you know who created and built most of the Ivy League schools in this country? That's right, Evangelicals. Along the way we abdicated that service and were co-opted by receiving copious amounts of government loans and grants. In accepting these government bribes we became polluted and gave up control. In short, we compromised in exchange for the cash.
What is social justice? I say social justice is personally living by Biblical principles and abiding by the two greatest commandments. It is not, the actions of a government.
I know of only one person whom I consider to truly love Jesus who voted for and supports Obama. Not sure why he did or how he justifies it, but I believe his faith to be real. I also know many people who “claim” to be Christians who support Obama. And good grief, don’t even get me started on the OVERWHELMING support from black churches.
Don’t EVEN get me started on my insufferable mother in law. She goes once a week to launder the altar linens, is “in” with the priest, and reminds us all what a great Catholic she is ...except she votes Democrat, every time, unashamedly.
“As long as you’re a good person ...it doesn’t matter what you do ....” (doesn’t matter if you’re gay, have abortions, keep people down on welfare, etc). It’s all okey dokey!!
Changing your tune, "coach"? Who's to blame? The people that voted for Obama, or the people who didn't?
....clearly the vast majority of Evangelicals stayed home on Election Day. They weren’t dealing with a storm or a personal family emergency. They stayed home because they made a conscious decision to allow our Marxist enemy to continue ruining our lives rather than have Mormon Mitt Romney as our president.They draw their grounds for such a twisted thought from their interpretation of the Bible which they take literally – except of course for the part about handling poisonous snakes – that’s where a more modern interpretation of Scripture takes hold. The Evangelicals’ hatred of Romney burns so brightly it blinded them. Self- flagellation and a willingness to aid and abet a clear enemy became preferable to them – consequences be damned.
-- from the "Coach is Right" thread Evangelicals plunge America into darkness – mislead polls and stay home on Election Day
It would go a long way if the Republicans ever nominated a Catholic for President to show more than their vote is welcome. In the meantime it’s the economy.
This also explains why the AA church votes dimocrat. Liberation Theology.
It is a rarity for an Evangelical Christian to vote democrat, being the most pro-life, conservative vote in America, around 76% to 80%, but the majority of Catholics vote democrat.
They aren't similar, they are dissimilar.
