| Catholics must learn how to vote—not just as citizens, but as Catholics too. They need to judge each candidate individually based on where he stands on key moral issues. They need to exclude from their consideration any candidate who is wrong on any of these issues. And that’s where the Voter’s Guide for Serious Catholics comes in. The voter’s guide helps you cast your vote in an informed manner consistent with Catholic moral teaching. It helps you eliminate from consideration candidates who endorse policies that cannot be reconciled with moral norms that used to be held by all Christians. On most issues that come before voters or legislators, a Catholic can take one side or the other and not act contrary to his faith. Most matters do not have a "Catholic position." As you can read for yourself, this booklet gives clear and concise official Church statements on five issues that do have moral implications:
These issues are "non-negotiable" when it comes to their moral standing—and Catholics must not compromise on these issues. "If Catholics voted as they should--that is, by following the moral teachings of the Church--the ‘Catholic vote’ would change the face of American politics." —Karl Keating In the voter’s guide, you'll learn how to:
We’ve also updated the guide this year to include information about why certain issues such as the death penalty and war are not considered non-negotiable—and why other issues which are non-negotiable are not included in the voter’s guide. After reading this immensely helpful booklet, there will be no doubt or confusion about what the Church teaches and requires of her children. The voter's guide can be purchased in bulk at prices as low as $.22 per copy. Economical and attractive, these prices will allow you to distribute the guide en masse.

Customer Reviews:Bud (Saturday, 18 October 2008)Rating:  I am very impressed with this publication, I am not catholic, but rather a protestant christian, however I feel this voting guide should be required reading in all christian denominations. I hope those who read it will give some serious thought to their canidates when voting. Steve J. (Thursday, 10 August 2006) Rating: This is a clear, concise, and simple recap of Catholic teachings. I think it's desperately needed as a counter to all the "Catholic" mush that's being pushed in print and (unfortunately) from the pulpit. Good Job!! |
