      You're awesome, I so glad this happened to you. I'm afraid. I want to be a catechist/theologian type, fully-rooted in the faith, but I've never felt accepted by the Church. I've now met a grand total of two priests who helped me a lot, I really 'get' the faith, but I've met a lot of people I have not been able to connect with; we don't give one another a chance. I have my feet firmly set in the secular world but my heart and soul on a yearning for active religious life. I have a secular girlfriend now, strong secular friends, and so I'm torn from even being able to practice because my friends can only hang out on weekends, and so can she. I feel like God and the Church are not extending an arm or any reassurance to pull me back. If I just meet 'crusaderbros', Republican MAGA types who act like brutish bubbas, and the only young women around are (discerning) nuns or very few who are not this, I cannot grow in the Church, I feel. The priest (God love him) is protected by these old people (gatekeepers) who run the church office and refuse to give his phone number out or let him do anything without their approval. It's not the Newman Center anymore where the priest gives out his number and is available for you on a dime, or even much at all.
      You know the Church, what should I do? I'm losing it now, I'm becoming a full member of the secular world and not able to meet God anymore. The confession lines are long and filled with guys more OCD/autistic than I AM, so even if practicing, I probably wouldn't be able to receive, especially if I now have a girlfriend and mortal sin is unavoidable in one's life. I wish I was accepted by Catholics and not treated like nothing; if I were met by others and helped out, had actual friends, I'd not stray too far, I believe. Then again, I am more Orthodox in my spirituality; I do not like rosaries or certain devotions. Maybe I should change to Eastern Catholic or outright Eastern Orthodox?

      @@Awakeningspirit20Hello brother, many of the struggles you are experiencing in the faith are normal and understandable. Let me tell you about myself if you wouldn’t mind. I was born into the Catholic faith(like my father) and received my sacraments. I was confirmed at the age of 13. At age 14 I was attending a Methodist church(like my mother). My mother and father were never married and separated when I was young . At 15 I self identified as non denominational though attended the Methodist church and was confirmed there. I became an Atheist in secret by the age of 16, and still participated in church functions and ministry. I rapidly fell into Rage and Lust mostly. I hurt myself and other people through my actions. At age 20 I wanted to restore my faith but couldn’t see its truth and would fall back into sin. When I turned 21 I fully committed myself to God in fullness. I approached it from the notion that if I dedicated myself to starving the cycles of sin within me that the knowledge would follow. Where I found God was crying myself to sleep for years and feeling like I was dying inside. I yearned for meaning and realized my want for God was actually a need. My life had to fall apart before I could appreciate God. I have since chosen to return to the Catholic faith. The Orthodox Church was a considerable option. I have never felt stronger in my faith as a Christian. Though the Catholic Church isn’t perfect I do believe it is both good and fortified with tradition. My belief is that if you honor the Trinity that is God and live by God’s word then that is what matters. I personally returned to being Catholic because I see it as the most straightforward way to honor that.

      I'm glad you have, but that was your own journey with God. In fact, we all have our own paths with God. Even people who have abortions. That is theirs and only theirs. Not mine, not the churches, on them with God. Did God not save a murderer right before he died. God is all-knowing. He knew Judas had one job; to betray him. That was his journey. We have to stop getting into people's journeys.
      This priest forgot one thing. Jesus only command
      Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you. 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples if ye have love one to another. -John 13:33-35
      Jesus commands divine love for one another that is modeled on his own acts of charity, which Trump lacks in his immigration policy. Jesus does not talk about abortions, and his words supersede any other Old Testament verse. It's part of the New Covent.
      We should strive to be better Christians. Jesus didn't come here for the pure, he came to save. Jesus would have scolded this man. with Luke 37 “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; 38 give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
      39 He also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit? 40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher. 41 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 42 How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.

      If that’s all it takes it is immensely easy to coerce Catholics to support a candidate with immoral positions.
      In a race with one pro-life candidate the Catholic vote would be ensured.
      In America this issue is unsolvable in the long-term. No election will get rid of this issue, we are too divided on this topic. It will come back the next election and the next and the next. The Catholic vote will be chained to this one issue indefinitely.
      Any other issues we could work towards solving and making our lives and our neighbors’ lives better are voided.
      It’s much better in the long term for us, the country, and our conscience to not support candidates that violate our beliefs. If they want our vote, they have to put their morally best candidates forward.
      It’s disheartening to hear that an adulterer who combined a political document with the Bible and sold it was the most morally aligned with Catholics.
      I frequently read through Matthew to remind myself of the higher standards I’m supposed to live by, and then I watch his rallies unedited and I can’t help but notice it’s just always the opposite of what I read.

    I'm just going to say it. The Holy Father is wrong on this observation. Removing illegals is not the same as killing babies. at all. And a bit hypocritical given this:
    Immigration Principles
    The Vatican City’s immigration policy is guided by Catholic teaching, emphasizing the importance of regulating immigration in the interest of the common good. The city-state upholds the principle of preventing illegal immigration and combating exploitation, as reflected in Pope John Paul II’s statements on the matter.
    In conclusion
    Vatican City’s immigration policy is characterized by strict limits on residency and citizenship, with only a few select categories of individuals eligible for entry. The city-state’s unique status as a sovereign entity within Rome, Italy, influences its visa policy, which is largely governed by Schengen Area regulations. The Vatican City’s immigration principles are rooted in Catholic teaching, prioritizing the common good and preventing illegal immigration.

      Agreed. I don't always like Trump's delivery, but sending ILLEGAL immigrants (not just any migrants) back to the country they came from is not anti-life. With all due respect for the Pope, there are people who have died at the hands of some of these undocumented immigrants with prior criminal records in their home countries. It is very pro-life to protect American citizens from these issues. Not to mention, we can help our own homeless and veterans when we aren't allowing so many illegal immigrants to live her off of taxpayer dollars.

      That isn’t quite what he said.
      Other than not voting, the options open were between two bad candidates.
      Whilst the Pope said “lesser of two evils” (which I do not think is a good way to look at this) this person turns it around and says that you should vote for the better candidate. None of the candidates are good choices according to him. There may be other considerations too.
      But it seems to me that trump, whilst he is apparently against abortion still supports IVF. As a person from the UK I have no say in this matter - however, it seems that the choice was for one candidate that could significantly reduce the number of babies killed and one which supports abortion for any reasons without restrictions.
      I do not like the abortion being equated to immigration. They are different things. There are different ways to support people in their own countries, and ultimately taking in immigrants doesn’t solve the problems they face at home either.
      Having an immigration policy which aims to help people who need asylum and solid international policies which support America first and other nations is important too.

    What people fail to see, and the Holy Father has every right to be an advocate for pro-life, but did God in the Garden not give the option for Adam and Eve to have free will? And did they not choose what they wanted and-as a result-suffer the consequences?
    Remember, our goal as humans is not to control others, but to let each individual make their own decisions. Abortion should not condoned, but it shouldn’t be the reason that you vote for an individual. People will leave the country to get an abortion or go to a state that permits it even if the federal government does not. Did gays not come to California during the 00’s to get married, even though it was illegal throughout the country ?

      We have guidelines in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. What Francis said goes against what the Catechism teaches.

    I studied theology in Vatican university. The professors in moral theology’ always told us to choose the lesser evil. In this case: it’s trump. This priest should proclaim this. Another priest unable to guide. So sad

    Instead of blaming the candidates on the abortion issue. Candidates can't win if there isn't 100 percent pro or con .

      We are the only country with opened borders. So that means that all other countries are against immigrants?

    On Abortion, Transgender and Euthanasia, true practicing Catholics, we have to pray for both Trump and JD Vance for full conversation to totally PROLIFE. For illegal immigration we have to pray for those who want to cross over illegally, to go via the legal channels to be US citizens. Pope Francis is not ruling out the legal processes, but he reminds world leaders to love their own people by stopping wars and the humanity livelihoods of people to eliminate illegal asylum seeking.
