Obama Goes to the White House, You Go to Hell: Catholic Priest Asks for Penance from Parishioners Who Voted for Obama

See this blog post here. This is a blog by Jonathan Turley, a law professor who shows up a lot on the talking head TV shows. A reasonable man with a temperament under control. Tracking the Roman Catholic church on this one is an interesting study. I think the RCs have boxed themselves into a corner on their stands on abortion and birth control. Most conservative Christians of any stripe will honor them for seeking consistency and being willing to take major hits for it. To be consistent they must be as rigorous on birth control as they are on abortion. They aren’t. And they lose steam in the dialogue because of it. Still, a lot of evangelical Christians have a high regard for the RCs’ willingness to take on major political and social leaders. They would like to go to a church like that – if it wasn’t Roman Catholic.
