BeliefNet notices Fidelis' "Anti-Abortion, Anti-Gay Marriage Video"

It might seem odd to say this, but it makes sense if you know Beliefnet, but anyway ... for an "outsiders" prospective on the CatholicVote.com innitiative of Fidelis, and particularly their stunning video on Catholic voting, click here.

I think the author, Dan Gilgoff, would make great strides in understanding this "phenomenon" if he realized that the motivation behind this project is not partisan in the way that so many pro-Democratic faith-based outreaches are.

Rather, these "conservative" Catholics genuinly believe they are applying the social teaching of the Church in an authentic manner. Knowing what one must render to God informs how we approach the things of Caesar.

That's belief in action, as strange as it may appear to some.

I've significantly expanded this post over at the CatholicVote blog.
