Let's see your stupid if your catholic and equally stupid if you think voting changes anything. So ya why not

We are blessed to have the right to vote. I do not want anyone to tell me how to vote, with the threat of excommunication or eternal damnation. The only diety I will pray to as to how to vote is God. That is religious freedom and democracy.

@Snotra It's not just your race-- it's all of ours in America. Catholics overwhelmingly voted for Obama, which really makes you wonder if they put their party before their faith.

Speaking as a Hispanic, I have been so ashamed of my race lately. We make up a large percentage of Catholics globally. For us to give our vote to Obama in full knowing it is against the doctrines specified in our Catechism, that we are not to support politicians that are pro-choice is alarming.

@theRod1995 DUH! there are fake Catholics as well.. didn't you know that??? you see, in Protestantism there are like 60, 000 denominations. In Catholicism, which isn't a denomination, for it's THE CHURCH, there are some people who are just "Catholic" (not Roman, not Apostolic). Do not get fooled. If a parish supports homosexuality, it is definitely NOT Catholic. I suggest you get out of there and look for a Roman Catholic parish, my man.

@ChrisDaron Well, the Jesuits at my Church are also pro-homosexuality... it seems that our entire Church isnt Catholic...

@theRod1995 You're the kind of person who's hot and cold. You can't decide what you like.
The Catholic church DOES NOT support homosexuality. See? You're not Catholic. You just think you are.

@ChrisDaron I will tell people I am a Catholic! I go to Church on a Sunday and I am a very good Catholic! Pro-Choice - well I disagree with him on that one, I think abortion is wrong, but that is but one policy I disagree with him on. and his pro-homosexualityness, I, and most of the people at my Church, have no problem at all with homosexuality! I support their right to get married and love each other.
I will tell people I am Catholic, and most other Catholics I know have my views!

You're not Catholic, then. You cannot support a man who is pro-choice and who is pro-homosexuality.
Please don't tell people you're Catholic. You're really making Catholics look bad.
Alright I am at my breaking point, LISTEN UP MORONS. Once FOCA comes out you'll see. I am tired of people going, oh look how many people have died in wars compared to abortion. The truth is the people who died in Iraq CHOSE to join the military and KNEW the risks. Those of whom have not been born yet DON'T HAVE ANY CHOICES. Abortion should be the first and formost issue Catholic voters should evaluate before voting. Oh and if you think that is just an opionion consult a priest. He'll know

I am a Hispanic Catholic, and have always voted against those seeking to expand the "pro choice" and homosexual agendas. You cannot be Catholic and do otherwise, because it's a matter of right and wrong.
