Thank you, and thanks to all who read it and commented. I would be grateful if some of you found it worthy to send the link to it around to some of your friends by email. Catholic Lane is gradually getting known, we have writers doing Catholic radio spots regularly now, but anything you do to help get word out about the site is MUCH appreciated!
Pentecost blessings to all.
The problem is that we get so excited about pro-life Catholic candidates, that we really don’t even consider their competence in delivering a pro-life message. We constantly settle for them as though that was the best we could do.
It is going to take both, Kent. It is going to take real conviction and passion for the unborn — which he may have, but certainly did not demonstrate yesterday. And it is going take an ability to put that message across in the national media. We have to demand BOTH from our candidates, and not just settle. Perhaps if he knows that we expect better, he will deliver better.
As for all the stuff about the Church etc. I think you are asking for a bit much to go into one article. But if you ever read the full body of my work, which consists of hundreds of articles, you will see that I have addressed and continue to address many of those other issues.
