O MORE, O TEMPORE
It used to matter, there are so many abortions these days, it's almost as casual as birth control pills, so who cares that only one person said he was against abortion?
Oh, I remember the days when Elizabeth Perez Arriola would stand up for the rights of a fetus and would do everything possible to keep it from being legal on Guam. There was even a time that a lawyer daughter of hers took a side against her(being pro-choice-which I'm sure broke her heart, but she was such a lady, didn't bring her pain or embarrassment to the public eye.
Those days, when we had a Bishop who had a spine and was more interested in real church stuff rather than this neo movement that's dividing the Catholics from the regulars to the elite..I digress. The days when Bishop Flores supported people who had moral values and didn't support those who didn't have moral values. I recall that he said that he would tell his people not to vote for those senators or elected officials who were for pro-choice. The threat was a good threat....the bill didn't pass and what ever it was(I can't recall the issue)...didn't pass and many surprise pregancies made it to term rather than being sucked out by some unfeeling doctor. Then, the Bishop would have made sure that his parish priests would encourage Catholics island-wide not to vote for candidates who were for pro-choice.
I have this gut feeling that the bishop doesn't really care about pro-choice or abortions. Perhaps it's because it's a non-issue in the neo-movement, or maybe he doesn't like the candidate who's pro life and would rather he didn't win and is looking the other way, hoping he loses. I think he's not supporting this man who's pro life because this candidate also attends another church in addition tho the one at the hospital and St. Anthony's.
No one really cares about abortion issues anymore. Abortion these days is just another way of birth control, a bit more expensive and sometimes more messy. Few will stand for the innocent little gifts of God.
The man that was brave enough to say that he's against abortion is Felix Camacho. He may not have been a perfect governor, but in my eyes, he's a perfect Christian.
Perhaps his support of the unborn is the reason he's so far ahead of the others.
