MIKolbe Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 [quote name='Laudate_Dominum' timestamp='1328719866' post='2383709'] Just saw this: [url="http://www.fplaction.org/rick-santorums-cruel-conservatism/"]Rick Santorum's Cruel Conservatism[/url] [/quote] As sad as I was to read this, alot of this is common among those who identify more with the right than with the left. (shoot...it's the MO here as well) "Social justice" to them is normally hippy jargon for socialism or some other non 'merican malody. They identify with what they agree with (say abortion), and disagree/ignore where they don't. On the flip side of the same coin, those who lean more to the left do the same exact thing, just in reverse polarity. Both claim a more moral highground in what they accept and reject. It would be nice to have a catholic candidate who took seriously ALL the Church has to say. Methinks it would confuse everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Adam Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Right, the man definitely isn't a utopian Catholic candidate, however, can we do better? And when it comes to the non-negotiables, is aboriton more important than climate change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A person with a brown bag over their head, that way when nominated, the identity will be revealed so as to not mire them in the current quagmire of infighting.

He hides his "no salt added" while he's on the shelf and then lords it over you once you get home and realize what you bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thessalonian Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 So Santorum isn't for redistribution of wealth. He thinks some people should make more than others. Big deal. He is not required to have the same ideas regarding imigration or health care as the Bishops. Those who trumpet social justice as their main issue generally misrepresent what it means to be Catholic and promote social justice. The ways this can be done are far less black and white than abortion and gay marriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
