Bishop Vasa: Pro-Abortion Candidates are "Disqualified" - Clarifies "Faithful Citizenship"
By John-Henry Westen
Excellent article regarding the faithful Catholic and voting.
On voting in opposition to a pro-life candidate, Bishop Vasa says:
'"If we had a candidate in favor of a war in Iraq in which we decimate
the entire population and we kill as many civilians to impose as much
terror on everybody as possible to make sure . . . If that was in
opposition to a pro-abortion person then I'd have a real conflict of
conscience because you'd have a direct and intentional killing of
innocent persons on one hand and the direct and intentional killing of
persons on the other hand, said the Baker Bishop.
"But we don't have that issue with capital punishment, we don't have
that issue with the war in Iraq we don't have that issue with the
present Administration," he added."
