Why This Black Catholic Is Not Voting For Obama

As much as I would love to cast the first vote for the first black president, I simply cannot because of a greater reason...

What an absolute beautiful person you are Lmerosne! God bless your heart! What powerful words you have spoken here. It truly touched me. I believe you truly have a beautiful heart and soul because it shows. Thank you! You surely are not a "poor man" in any sense of the word my friend.

@Iwtchutube God bless you dear friend!

I do not believe in abortion. Not because I am a Catholic, but because it is my choice. I believe there are enogh unwanted children in the world. I also believe that the soul chooses the life it wants prior to incarnation as it has a specific purpose to serve. Maybe the soul of an aborted child has served its purpose in the womb? Nothing giv es anyone the right to judge what choices other people make!

@klfletcher13 I think I see where you're coming from, but if you can't judge what choices other people make then you cannot tell the thief he is wrong for stealing your purse. It's his choice.

I believe Abortion is wrong. However, not allowing a woman to have control over her own body is also wrong. Abortion should only be legal to protect the rights of the mother, a woman should not be forced to carry a child to term. A woman should have the right to choose whether or not she wants to have the child. But I don't believe in making the wrong choices. A good moral person would make the right choice. Educated women would make the right choice. But they have to have the right to choose.

@sarah12D3 Just because the baby is inside her womb does not make him "her body". Being attached to the mother does not give her a right to kill the baby. One twin physically attached to another does not have a right to kill the other. Can a baby be forced to die to protect the desires of someone else?

I would love to support someone of my race too but Obama politics keep me from supporting him. I'm very Pro-Life so I can not support abortion. It is to me the most important issue.

Amen brother, God bless you

@Lmerosne Yes. If my answer was no, would it be ok with you?

Why you say VIP is killing babies? You wouldn't call a nail a person, or an egg or sperm cell. In the initial phases of pregancy all that is in the womb is a lump of cells, growing. No personality or thoughts. I don't want to go into technicalities, but the heart starts to beat at day 21. Brain activity starts at day 40.

Too many babies come into this world to suffer. Too many mothers have to pay for the mistake of others.
