MSW,  why don't you spend more time trying to find common ground than dividing the People of God on who they voted for or who they might have dinner with.  Is it wrong to expect more? 

We conservative Catholics love and appreciate our evangelical brothers and sisters although a few do make some goofy statements like the ones given by Presbyterian Pastor Marcelo Figueroa in Civilta Cattolica. 

The Jesuit Spadaro should have known better than to be brought into the tug of war between traditional Protestantism and evangelicalism. He was used. A good Jesuit would never have allowed that to happen. Now, the pope has another cultural war drum to deafen thanks to them; worse, it made it look like the Pope was telling American Catholics how to think, act and vote. He would never do that in the 21st Century. After all, popes today don't really involve themselves in the political affairs of nations unless of course we are defeating communism and relativism.
