. I can’t believe how many Catholics on this board believe they can actually fulfill their obligation to help the poor by voting for a politician who promise to take other people’s money to do it for them.
.
Allow me to explain:

“Today, wanting someone else’s money is called ‘need,’ wanting to keep your own money is called ‘greed,’ and ‘compassion’ is when politicians arrange the transfer.”
 
“There you go again” Suudy. Friend 'I am of the lower middle class crowd, and I gladly pay my fair share and I also do not begrudge giving my fair share to charity as the Scripture tells us we should do!

You didn’t answer the question. Do you think 50% of Americans are poor?
 
Gotta love those percentages. They are so good at making abortions seem so innocent, minimal and downplaying reality.
The Name is "Planned Parenthood" it is self explanatory! Their main objective is to perform abortions, it is why they were founded.

Sanger the founder of planned parenthood!
 
latest polls:
A plurality of registered voters said congressional Republicans are to blame in the event the debt ceiling is not raised in a poll conducted by Quinnipiac University from July 5-11.
When asked to whom they would assign responsibility should the limit not be raised, 48 percent of respondents chose the congressional Republicans; 34 percent said they would blame the Obama administration.
These results echo a Pew Research Center poll conducted from June 16-19 which asked the same question as the Quinnipiac poll. According to that survey, 42 percent of respondents said they would blame Republicans in Congress if the debt ceiling were not raised; 33 percent chose the Obama Administration.

I’m not pro-abortion, so I do want people to keep this in mind.

I would like people to provide links that are not from pro-life websites nor from pro-abortion websites. Each have an agenda and the “facts” are distorted in one way or another, even if very slight.

I only trust those whose only agenda is to get the facts out there. Neither pro-life nor pro-abortion activists will get the facts out there. They only get “facts” according to their agenda out there.

If they don’t care they don’t write articles about it.

Well said. 👍

I think contraception is the main objective, not abortions.

As for that quote, it’s a horrible thing to say, but remember why she said it. Large families that are poor are struggling to support the family… With christianity being the dominant influence on culture, sex for procreation is pushed. The poorer the family, the larger the family and with more kids, the harder it is to feed them. It’s a devastating circumstance. While Sanger’s intentions of trying to help the poorer families may be noble, the means of doing so is questionable.

These poor children barely have a chance to succeed in the world. We are seeing it still today. So few so-called christians go out and help these lower class families. Instead, they just turn their noses up and judge in disgust.
 
I’m a bit lazy to check, but I overheard on the news today that it was republican sources claiming Obama said the things he said and walked out.
 
In fairness, I don’t recall Jesus saying anything about the poor not paying taxes, or across the board taxation, etc. Other than “render unto Caeser…,” I’m pretty certain Jesus never mentioned taxation policy. Do we even know if the person who asked Jesus the question was rich or poor? Did the Romans tax across the board? If it was important, one would think Jesus would have taken that moment to address the situation. Instead, He just said, in essence, “pay your taxes.” 🤷
Three subtle points, or not too subtle in the first case, that people often miss come to mind:

(1) Paul said if you don’t work you don’t eat.

(2) The Good Samaritan - he gave the gravely stricken man enough to get ‘out of the ditch’ and back on his feet, not an unending amount of charity. Give those in dire need a step up, but then they have to step up.

(3) God feeds the birds in the sky (Matt. 6:26), but He doesn’t throw the food into the nest. The birds have to go out each day to get it.

God bless you.
 
So would a cop lose all credibility in your books if he went into a internet chat room, posed as a minor to see if a paedophile wanted to have sexual encounter with him?
