If you are Catholic and have one of these on your car -
- then you are a bad Catholic. And here is why: you cannot in good conscience vote for the person that this sticker represents because of his stance on abortion and homosexuality. That being said I am sure there would be many Catholics that would complain about this by saying, "But Fr. Namby Pamby down at St. Karl Marx Catholic Church said that I could vote for him as long as I don't support his position on abortion. I know abortion is bad but this man is going to bring change to our country through works of social justice. And the Church supports social justice, right? And even if I believe that homosexuality is wrong, Fr. Namby Pamby says I can't support the legislation of morality through governmental laws. After all, it wouldn't be fair to limit someone else's freedom just because I don't approve of their behavior."
In response to Catholics who would answer in such a way let me start with the last statement first. So, you're worried about limiting people's ability to do anything they want in the name of freedom. Does that mean you would want to do away with all the laws against murder? After all, someone might not like the way you look and want to shoot you in the face. Do you want to allow him the freedom to do that? No, I don't think you do. But in response to that another Catholic might say to me, "But you're talking about someone doing harm. Homosexuals don't do any harm to anyone so why should there be laws against them?" My response - actually they have done a great deal of harm to our country by promoting the breakdown of the family and the severe weakening of sexual morals. But that is just in addition to the fact that the Catholic Church, of which you claim to be a part, says that homosexuality is wrong! Therefore, if you are truly in communion with the Church, then you also must stand against such moral perversions as homosexuality, which includes being in agreement with laws that condemn it.
Now for abortion. You claim to be in favor of all the so-called acts of social justice that the person in question (see bumper sticker above) says he wants to do. If so then please answer this: how can there be any true justice for mankind if we don't even have the right to be born? How is it just to deny that basic right to anyone?
