Why Catholics for Obama?
Submitted by Sister Lea on February 3, 2008 - 2:41pm. --- Everything under the sun ...It was no coincidence that the Kennedy/King era coincided with Vatican II. Both Kennedy and King embodied a new vision for government in the same way that Vatican II brought forth a new vision for Church.
As Vatican II Catholics, we have considerable reason to support Obama. For us, Christ laid down his life to prove that God was NOT about domination and power OVER us. For us, Jesus' message was that of a God WITH us, a God who inspires and motivates us to love one another and care for each other. For us, Church and World are inseparably linked. It's not a case of one fighting the other in a turf war.
