Show me just one Catholic bishop who will speak up against coveting your neighbors’ goods. That is why Catholics ignored the Bishops on abortion. They know abortion is wrong but overlooked the Dems on that point because those same politicians pandered to their covetousness. Same for protestants and evangelical pastors, leaders and activists. American politics and government at all levels is driven by government-mediated coveting. Until the Church takes a stand against this we can expect to sink deeper and deeper into socialism and, oh yeah, abortion.

I think your post is the wisest one that I've received in the last two days. There are nine other commandments besides "you shall not kill", and I don't think I've heard a single sermon on the other nine in this last election cycle.

We as a country don’t believe in sin,therefore abortion and homosexuality is ok in a sinless world. We need preachers like John the Baptist!!!! And we know how Jesus felt about him. 50 million dead children shows a society that has lost the truth of mercy. Remember when right after 911 people were all going to church,praying and singing gospel songs? They were afraid and were grieving but that is all over now.The gift of the fear of the Lord is truly a grace filled gift of love of the Lord above all else especially of self.And I personally believe we are going to be shown fear and grieving again. God have mercy on us all.
