[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Catholics believe in the sanctity and dignity of all human life.  They oppose the death penalty, doctor-assisted suicide, war, and abortion (including the use of contraceptives like the morning-after pill).  Their position on abortion is consistent with their other views -- it has to do with the dignity of human life, not keeping women in their place.  Abortion is the #1 issue for many Catholics because there are so many abortions every year.  Many Catholics see it as genocide.    [/quote]

That's a crock. They found an exception that allows the death penalty. Many in the Church support the death penalty. They excommunicated Father Roy. They transferred priests allowing children to be raped and priests unpunished. The bishops are some of the most right-wing crazies around. Let's not forget how much PUBLIC money they get, and we can't say anything about how they use it? This mostly effects poor women--how many choices do people really have? Find someone else to work for? How easy is that in this economy, exactly? [/quote]

I'm not talking about the leaders of the Catholic church or individual Catholics.  I'm talking about Catholic social teaching.  And what's the exception that allows the death penalty?[/quote]

Sure, okay. BUT even Catholics don't follow their rules and teachings and that's a fact, not all I'm sure, but many. So why do those of us who practice another religion, or don't practice a religionat all,  be subjected to your teachings?[/quote]
