Seems to be some misinterpretation about the USCCB's recent "Faithful Citizenship" document -- including the idea that it would justify voting *for* a pro-abortion candidate.

Here is the document in its entirety (pdf file):
http://www.usccb.org/faithfulcitizenship/FCStatement.pdf

Just in case some people are getting their information from the news media instead of the source.

Quoting from page 15: "A Catholic cannot vote for a candidate who takes a position in favor of an intrinsic evil, such as abortion or racism, if the voter's intent is to support that position. In such cases a Catholic would be guilty of formal cooperation in grave evil."

Is there anything in this or elsewhere in the document that indicates voting for the "lesser of two evils" in the context of abortion is okay?

Often we have our children apologize without them really being sorry.I am not sure that this is a good teaching.I see could be Christians repenting of the same sin over and over.They are like the child that has been taught to apologize without any kind of sorrow for what they have done.

"For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death."

This doesn't sound particularly loving to me.


Also, I bet that's an awkward Father's Day conversation.

Thanksgiving tradition.

Does it relate any to your religion?

If you don't have any traditions, why?

Happy Thanksgiving.

since some people, i.e. creationists, are so taken in by the idea that evolution is just a theory and not a fact, i'm curious to know what you would define as fact and what is your basis for defining something as fact?

I don’t know any Christians that get angry for atheists teaching them about what they believe.

I can't imagine how brainwashed one would have to be, to willingly accept a discontinous jump between those three phases.......and then spend hours pissing and moaning over the science involved in evolution.

Are ones blessings directly proportionate to one's view of the word, and their place in it?

And what blessings would you consider to be some of your most meaningful?

I'm still writing that darned paper of mine about whether the person and ministry of Jesus is efficacious today. It supposed to be due but I haven't been able to get anything down and I have to write 5 pages.

I'm curious about whether he does say something against it and if he does, can you tell me in which book and what verse.

Also, are there any other things that a lot of Christians do today that Jesus specifically spoke against? ie. divorce

I am planning on staying in a haunted hotel next December for my thirtieth. I will be going with a small group of friends. I have searched the internet and got a few ideas for places. Now I would love to hear any recommendations from people who have actually stayed in a hanuted hotel and what they thought of it. I live in the North West of England and want to stay relatively close to that area.

It's pretty sick, but I think they are using a "lesser of two evils" in order to vote for an abortionist politician.

God willing, all communion and last rites will be witheld from "catholics" who vote pro abortion.

Bell, Book, and Candle they a$$...
