Reply #129: I know Catholics who personally didn't vote for Kerry...

[cybildisobedience]

because their priests told them they would go to hell if they did. These people actually planned on voting for Kerry, but heard, on the Sunday before the election, that all the good that they did in their lives would be wiped off the board IF they voted for a "pro-abortion" politician and inadvertently caused the death of millions of babies.
These people believed it -- they were raised in the Catholic church, are tremendously susceptible to guilt and anxiety, and didn't want to risk it.
So this guy's interference in an AMERICAN election DID have an impact.
Now, whether the Kerry votes would have been counted at all is another matter....
