Right now I am more worried about Catholic power in the voting booth and how it has been used in America.
For God’s sake, quit trying to conceal, and justify, and stop discussion of the Catholic vote, and switch to figuring how to change Catholics and end their powerful pro-abortion influence.
The Catholic vote is large and important, unfortunately it is pro-democrat and pro-abortion, stop defending it, and help us crack it, fix it, change it from it’s historical place in the democrat column.
Who is the "us" you are referring to and are your efforts exclusively politically motivated or do you care about the Salvation of said Catholics?
Nearly as many Catholics did not vote at all as voted for both parties. By definition, you have no exit polling data on the reasons they did not vote. It is entirely possible that they did not vote because they had moral objections to both parties. Although it has not prevented me from voting I too have moral problems with both parties.
Peace be with you.
“The Catholic vote is large and important, unfortunately it is pro-democrat and pro-abortion, stop defending it, and help us crack it, fix it, change it from it’s historical place in the democrat column.”
“Us” is pro-lifers and conservatives, that should not need to be explained to a freeper.
I am a pro-lifer, a conservative, AND a Catholic. You do not speak for me.
more of me needs to disappear.
Obama meeting with the Pope doesn’t confer any blessing on Obama. Remember, the Pope is a Head of State, and he’s meeting the President of the United States, as the Pope has done with most other US Presidents recently.
For God’s sake, quit trying to conceal, and justify, and stop discussion of the Evangelical vote, and switch to figuring how to change the 20 to 30% of Evangelicals and end their powerful pro-abortion influence
And how many of your denomination voted for the Dims? you are discussing about others but can’t see the plank in your eye?
And you can use that same statement about Catholics as a whole
Actually, as you said, 52% of Latino non-C voted D and 70% of Latino C voted D --> hardly a great difference
The fact that the Catholic vote has gone republican 5 or 6 times in history and may never do so again, is not encouraging.
The fact that Hispanics who become Protestant are about 50/50 in their voting, is encouraging because it gives the pro-life movement hope that they can be won over to conservatism, the fact that Hispanics who are members of the Catholic denomination are overwhelmingly a pro-abortion vote, and always will be, and that today’s Catholic vote is as good as it gets, is discouraging.
The fact that some people try to conceal, and justify, and stop discussion of the Catholic vote and harp on the 75% and 80% pro-life Evangelical vote(the best in existence) as the problem, because it isn’t 100% and who seem angry and jealous, even hostile about Evangelical Christians while discussing voting, is just mind blowing, but we do see it.
The fact that Hispanics who become P are about 50/50 is not different than the fact that 50% of Catholic did not vote for the Ds and that number will increase
The fact that Hispanics who become P voted 50% for D is also no different than the 70% of Hispanics who didn't become P who voted for D
you mean you are ok with 20% voting for pro-death?
Shame on you
Also, going by Pew numbers, 9 million Evang's voted for Obama -- lower than the 14 million Catholics, but very bad
Add this to the 21 million Pros who voted Obama and you see where Obama's support lies
So, you as an evangelical should focus on the 9 million E's who voted Obama -- you still haven't mentioned how many of your sub-denomination voted for Obama -- why?
Lol, this is just too bizarre.
