This is true... and as someone who's not Catholic but has one side of their family who is you are absolutely correct.


There are MANY issues that affect the overall goodness and/or necessity of certain leaders being elected. The whole abortion thing is just a highly pushed Republican wedge issue. It could just as easily be a War causing mass casualties built on lies... or issues of defunding programs for the poor or elderly... or any number of other things. 


Individual Catholics are often much, much more independent thinkers than just what a particular Priest or even the church itself would dictate.
