Comments:I guess abortion, fags, condoms and free birth control matter more to catholic women than REAL things—they again voted with their “female parts” after all...
So long, America...
------------------------------------------
The American bishops let the ‘seamless garment’ social justice doctrine work its poison for so long, now they are mystified when Catholics help re-elect the most anti-Catholic president there ever was.
-----------------------------------------
Just goes to show how seriously Catholics take their own doctrine... about as seriously as those envelopes that fill the baskets with their loose change every Sunday (at least every Sunday that they attend).
---------------------------------------
When the leaders of the church advocate for class warfare, it's to be expected the rank and file will follow suit. It's shocking to me how Catholic voters continue to favor social justice over the loss of religious freedom, abortion measures and sexual perversion the Democrats advocate.
I'm very glad to see the Protestants are still voting for true justice (not social justice) by a 13 point margin.
--------------------------------
If our candidate is not utterly perfect on the issue, such as suggesting rape and life of the mother exemption, then we go ahead and vote for the psychopath who advocates killing babies that manage to survive an abortion?
This mentality has just enabled FAR more abortion than Romney ever would have on his worst day.
Maybe the body count will reflect our purity? This is like marrying a career prostitute to avoid marrying a fiancee’ who isn’t a virgin, and is therefore impure.
------------------------------------
The question is what kind of church do you have when neither the parishioners nor those who lead them are interested in the doctrines that supposedly define them.
It would appear the Church has chosen a popularity contest approach to be all things to all people, rather than being an anchor for all people against the world of temptation and consequences.
It is said that after elections we get the world we deserve. I have resisted that belief since I didn't vote for any of this, but now I see that we do.
The older generation first receives the world they have taught to their children.
And here we are, wondering what comes next. Too bad the Church doesn't know the answer or chose not to teach it...but it's not too late, is it?

A friend who I trust and is very well connected in the Church said in September that over half the members of the USCCB were still planning on voting for Obama this year.
Given what Raymond Arroyo said about their vote in 2008 ( see
onelacatholic.blogspot.com/…/how-many-of-hie… )
I believe this.
“All heresy begins below the waist.” And the problems in the USCCB still run very deep in this regard. That is the primary explanation for the failure of the Church in this election.
--------------------------------------------
..and for the idiots who didn't want to chose Romney because he is not fully prolife...
Only an immature low life A-hole would have stayed home. Their big day of moral posturing just got us the maximum possible number of abortions,
6 dollar gasoline,
the end of coal (doubling our electric bills),
the end of fracking, skyrocketing taxes,
“flexibility” with Russia,
more of Moochelle Obamas food nazi policies,
a warm embrace of the muslim brotherhood,
nuclear weapons for Iran,
the final abandonment of Israel,
the likely destruction of the dollar as a reserve currency,
further oppression of American churches,
and all the Abortion Obama and his machine can churn out.
Good work guys.

This should be a profound warning to the Vatican that it has effectively lost the souls of over half of those in America who call themselves Catholics.
Hypothetically, it is comparable to a situation in which over half the Catholics living in a nation embraced unholy paganism, while continuing to call themselves Catholic. What can the church do?
When the church is afraid to carry out actual excommunication, unwilling to do more than argue with the heretic that they should stop being heretics, it is no longer Catholic.
What priest is brave enough to ask for a show of hands of who voted for Obama, then to ask them to group together and tell them that they are excommunicated, that their names will be removed from the records of the church, and that in future they are to be denied communion or even attendance at mass? And finally give them a request that they henceforth do not call themselves Catholics.
It is past the point where the church can try to redeem the majority who have strayed. It can either expel them or be destroyed by them.
