        You can't be a deeply religious Catholic and support abortion. You just can't.

        Actually that would just make you a sinner, of which there are plenty.

        And the correct term is "support killing and mutilating babies"

            Ah yes, and Catholics are very adept at pointing this out to their own. Judgmentally, completely unasked, and because the Church has no intention of altering its position on this, it's also completely pointless. Catholic Asperger's.

            But unlike those afflicted with Asperger's, these Catholics never seek help for it. And as a result they remain intolerable boors. Not for what they believe, but with their complete disregard for how they come off, favoring the Bible instead of the very point of its existence. "Love thy neighbor" definitely includes how not to sound like a self-righteous assclown and navigate these issues politely.

              Not to me. For god's sake. That Dr. she insists on using makes her enough of a jerk. For me she'll be FLOTUS or The Wife.

                Nope. I know plenty of Catholics, absolutely plenty, who think their righteousness exempts them from developing social graces. I don't understand why that is. Quite obviously it's unnecessary. How many rape victims have you browbeaten about having an abortion? I'm guessing none, ever.

                Please love yourself.

                    I assume "developing social graces" means that they should never ever say anything that might conflict with your worldview. Maybe killing and mutilating babies is a practice that conflicts with theirs.

                      All of which nonsense about righteousness is just a smokescreen over my original point - you cannot support abortion and call yourself a 'deeply religious Catholic'.

                        To my mind, believing in the divinity of Christ is a bridge further than believing that abortion is murder.

                        Education is extremely important.

                                You can be very religious (strong devotion and belief in a higher power) and not be down with abortions. But you know what I mean so if we disagree, fine.

                                My point about righteousness wasn't a smokescreen. I think it's far more important than arguing over what Catholicism teaches about abortion, which isn't the least bit ambiguous. The social messaging problem causes harm to others where it exists, and it's fixable, so I think they should try.

                                      You can be very religious (strong devotion and belief in a higher power) and not be down with abortions. But you know what I mean so if we disagree, fine.

                                      My point about righteousness wasn't a smokescreen. I think it's far more important than arguing over what Catholicism teaches about abortion, which isn't the least bit ambiguous. The social messaging problem causes harm to others where it exists, and it's fixable, so I think they should try.

                                      Agree. I think you can be a strong member of X , but not believe absolutely 100% everything that they stand for.

                                        Yeah, but that’s a pretty basic tenet. The only argument that I can give weight to is if they argue that they are 100% against abortion, but believe that it’s not the Government’s prerogative to make that call. Which is an argument that I would like to have. But that’s never been Biden’s stance.

                                          How many Roman Catholics use artificial contraception of some form or other?

                                          Yeah, yeah, not the same thing. But aren't you then just haggling about price?

                                          I was only joking
