Being fully aware of the five non-negotiable issues for Catholics, I would like to know this:
What does one do with a candidate who does not believe in harvesting stem-cells from human embryos unless said embryos were already created in an in-vitro fertilization clinic. In other words, a candidate who believes you should not create life to destroy it, but won’t stop anyone from destroying a life that has already been created by someone else.
In the event that one has to choose between such a candidate, and one who is openly pro-abortion, what does one do? Not vote? Write someone in? Or vote for the lesser of two evils?
And more specifically, does a candidate as mentioned above fall inside or outside of the specifications for being anti-ESSR?
Please note: this is not a thread about the morality of ESSR, or about single-issue voting. I am presupposing that the five non-negotiable issues are solid, and that based on these issues we will choose our candidates. If you disagree, this is not the place to discuss it.
