Catholics Called to Witness (“Inspiring Catholics to Live Their Faith”) released an extremely dramatic video about the upcoming presidential elections:
The text reads as follows (emphasis theirs, and also note that their text is all in caps lock. I wouldn’t subject you to that, though):
In generations past, the church has always been able to count on the faithful to stand up and protect her sacred rights and duties. This generation of Catholics must do the same.
This November
Catholics across the nation will be
Put to the test.
Many issues in America
Require hard work
But how do we know
If we are building in vain?
“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” Psalm 127:1
Catholics across the nation
Will have an opportunity
To shape the future
For our generation
Many issues are at stake.
But some issues are
Not negotiable
“The protection of life…from…conception, until natural death.” Pope Benedict XVI
Marriage should be reinforced
Not redefined
Forcing the church to buy insurance that goes against her teachings is a violation of religious freedom.
“When the government tampers with a freedom so fundamental, one shudders to think what lies ahead.” Cardinal Dolan
Your vote will affect the future
And be recorded in eternity
Will you vote the values
That stand the test of fire?
The whole text plays over a man literally forging words like “TAXES” and “ENERGY” and “MARRIAGE” all in super slow motion. Then a woman walks to a voting booth and casts a ballot. In super slow motion. The sound track is something akin to The Lord of the Rings. It is all very very dramatic.
I wonder who they are trying to get us to vote for…
So, this is what we’re up against.
Just thought I would let you know.
*CUE DRAMATIC MUSIC*
