Obama got something right...although not in the way he wanted to



This post is for my fellow SUPPOSED Catholics who says it is irresponsible to vote based on a single issue, as if the killing of babies isn't a serious enough issue to turn you off to a candidate.

This is WRONG. A single issue such as abortion and the born alive infants act should be the MAIN issue on a Christian's mind. The bible tells you that abortion is a MORTAL SIN.

"The second commandment of the teaching: You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not seduce boys. You shall not commit fornication. You shall not steal. You shall not practice magic. You shall not use potions. You shall not procure [an] abortion, nor destroy a newborn child" (Didache 2:1–2 [A.D. 70]).

"The way of light, then, is as follows. If anyone desires to travel to the appointed place, he must be zealous in his works. The knowledge, therefore, which is given to us for the purpose of walking in this way, is the following. . . . Thou shalt not slay the child by procuring abortion; nor, again, shalt thou destroy it after it is born" (Letter of Barnabas 19 [A.D. 74]).

"Concerning women who commit fornication, and destroy that which they have conceived, or who are employed in making drugs for abortion, a former decree excluded them until the hour of death, and to this some have assented. Nevertheless, being desirous to use somewhat greater lenity, we have ordained that they fulfill ten years [of penance], according to the prescribed degrees" (canon 21 [A.D. 314]).

This is not new, this is not a changable law, abortion is a mortal sin, allowing babies born alive to die simply because they survived an abortion, is murder.

Voting for someone who is such a radical Pro-Abortion candidate, that he is ok with letting infants born alive die... FOUR TIMES voting down the born alive infant act, meaning animals have more protection and rights than a living human baby... a man who has said he would sign a law protecting a woman's rights to have an abortion at anytime, up to the last month of pregnancy, should she want to... is like condoning the act.

What is more important to you? selfishly hoping for tax cuts that will probably never come as he has a proven track record of doing the opposite of what he promises... or protecting the sanctity of life, which the Catholic church calls you to do? Empty promises, or your soul.

it's your choice come Nov. 4th.

Speaking of Obama being right, but not in the way he wanted to...

He calls lower taxes selfish.

he's right, if it's at the cost of a human life.

Put country and faith first.

Vote McCain '08
