I caught a discussion on Twitter regarding Newt Gingrich's outrage that the "anti-life" President Obama should be allowed to speak at the Catholic, Notre Dame University.
Apparently, Newt Gingrich is converting to Catholicism this weekend so he might share religion with his THIRD wife. Now Mr. Gingrich feels that his pending conversion qualifies him as some sort of authority on the Church's teachings.
I'd like to point out Mr. Gingrich's hypocrisy, as he has supported increased use of the Death Penalty in Federal cases. My folks have a bumper sticker on their car that says something to the effect of, "You can't be Catholic AND Pro-Choice." Being Catholic means being Pro-Life. So in the same vein, you can't be Catholic and Pro-Death Penalty. Capital Punishment and Abortion are equally violations of the sanctity of human life. According to the teachings of the Catholic Church, ALL LIFE IS SACRED. That doesn't mean all life, except murderers and rapists and other criminals and people who have done evil things.
