General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Catholics Now Tilt to the Republicans [View all]B.See
(1,723 posts)for those who may be either misinformed or harboring certain perspectives on such issues, such as discussed in that other thread I mentioned, in which it was revealed that, yes Matilda, there are rural liberals.
Likewise, herein, some have discovered that there are Catholics, like myself, who are pro-choice.
As hinted in my byline, I (and many other Catholics I think) see women's choice, along with gay rights, the right to healthcare, a decent livable wage, consumers' rights, etc. etc. as a CIVIL RIGHT, being fought like never before, 'on many fronts' as it were.
Perhaps that's a sjw perspective as suggested by another here or maybe just one's sense of 'doing the right thing.'
At any rate, I'd allow that such discussions can serve a positive purpose in that they can be enlightening.
That being said though, I do think that Republicans (and especially their MAGA components) demonstrate a better propensity (for better or worse) to look past (if not outright ignore) their differences in order to present a more unified and focused mindset towards their ultimate goal and greater purpose.
And, as I said in another thread, I wish liberals were somewhat better at doing likewise.
