Catholic Solidarity at the New Hampshire Republican Debate

*Tonight's Debate was broadcast on ABC.com.


Gingrich started a spat about the Catholic Church being maligned by the current administration;

Romney followed up by mentioning that in Massachusetts Catholic Charities was impeded from arranging adoptions because of its fundamental beliefs;

Perry jumped on the bandwagon and criticized the Obama administration for stigmatizing Catholic Charities because of its principles of Marriage and Abortion.

Regarding this exchange:

The first respondent is a Catholic, the second one is a Mormon, and the third one who mentioned the Catholic religion is an Evangelical, yet, they all spoke with one voice, defending the Church of Rome.

As I watched and listened to these Republican Presidential Candidates it reminded me of this:

When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near.--5T 451 (1885).
