The 5 non-negotiable issues for Catholic voters |
These five current issues concern actions that are intrinsically evil and
must never be promoted by the law. Intrinsically evil actions are those
which fundamentally conflict with the moral law and can never be
deliberately performed under any circumstances. It is a serious sin to
deliberately endorse or promote any of these actions, and no candidate who
really wants to advance the common good will support any action contrary to
the non-negotiable principles involved in these issues.
1. Abortion
The Church teaches that, regarding a law permitting abortions, it is "never
licit to obey it, or to take part in a propaganda campaign in favor of such
a law, or to vote for it". Abortion is the intentional and direct killing of
an innocent human being, and therefore it is a form of homicide.
The unborn child is always an innocent party, and no law may permit the
taking of his life. Even when a child is conceived through rape or incest,
the fault is not the child's, who should not suffer death for others' sins.
2. Euthanasia
Often disguised by the name "mercy killing," euthanasia also is a form of
homicide. No person has a right to take his own life, and no one has the
right to take the life of any innocent person.
In euthanasia, the ill or elderly are killed, by action or omission, out of
a misplaced sense of compassion, but true compassion cannot include
intentionally doing something intrinsically evil to another person.
3. Embryonic Stem Cell Research
Human embryos are human beings. "Respect for the dignity of the human being
excludes all experimental manipulation or exploitation of the human embryo".
Recent scientific advances show that often medical treatments that
researchers hope to develop from experimentation on embryonic stem cells can
be developed by using adult stem cells instead. Adult stem cells can be
obtained without doing harm to the adults from whom they come. Thus there is
no valid medical argument in favor of using embryonic stem cells. And even
if there were benefits to be had from such experiments, they would not
justify destroying innocent embryonic humans.
4. Human Cloning
"Attempts . . . for obtaining a human being without any connection with
sexuality through 'twin fission,' cloning, or parthenogenesis are to be
considered contrary to the moral law, since they are in opposition to the
dignity both of human procreation and of the conjugal union".
Human cloning also involves abortion because the "rejected" or
"unsuccessful" embryonic clones are destroyed, yet each clone is a human
being.
5. Homosexual "Marriage"
True marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Legal recognition of
any other union as "marriage" undermines true marriage, and legal
recognition of homosexual unions actually does homosexual persons a disfavor
by encouraging them to persist in what is an objectively immoral
arrangement.
"When legislation in favor of the recognition of homosexual unions is
proposed for the first time in a legislative assembly, the Catholic lawmaker
has a moral duty to express his opposition clearly and publicly and to vote
against it. To vote in favor of a law so harmful to the common good is
gravely immoral".

What non-negotiable rewards does God and his "friends" who want the
votes offer in return?

I wonder how many catholics will be heading overseas for life saving
stem-cell therapy when other countries have it but the US does not due
to religionists stifling research?

The flip-flopping is going to be deafening. To wit, Arlen Specter. One could
only hope something similar happens to the likes of Rick Santorum.

Not many. Not everybody can be as wealthy as Mother Theresa and go to the
most expensive, high powered health care facilities on the planet you know...

You might be thinking of Sen. Arlen Spector:
WASHINGTON - On a Sunday TV talk show at the end of May, Sen. Arlen Specter,
an ardent proponent of embryonic stem-cell research, was debating the issue
with an opponent, antiabortion Republican Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas.
After several heated exchanges, Brownback asked Specter, "When did your life
start?"
"Well, Sam," the Pennsylvania Republican replied, "I'm a lot more concerned
at this point about when my life is going to end."
