The Matthew 25 Network Promotes Obama

The Matthew 25 Network

Catholic, Protestant, Pentecostal and Evangelical--inspired by the Gospel mandate to put our faith into action to care for our neighbor. We believe that people of faith should actively participate in the political process as an important avenue for social change.

We come together as individual believers to support candidates for public office who share the values of the Matthew 25 Network: promoting life with dignity, caring for the least of these, strengthening and supporting families, stewardship of God's Creation, working for peace and justice at home and abroad and promoting the common good.

Apparently the Matthew 25 group does not consider unborn children as members of "the least of these" since Obama has a consistent record of voting against any legislation that would limit the murderous practice of abortion.

This is nothing more than PAC with a Christian sounding name that was started simply to endorse Obama. I just posted about this on my site and contrasted Matthew 25 Network with NARAL.

Unborn babies aside, people who are born and are trying to survive deserve a lot of respect and should be considered when you're talking about "pro-life" politics.

Voting for politicians who promote war and torture (murderous practices), work with lobbyists (who are greedy sociopaths), deny health care to the poor and widowed (James 1:27 - how many thousands of poor people die after being denied health care?), and support corporations with sociopathic environmental and human rights practices (Gen. 1:28) doesn't seem permissible for a self-proclaimed Christian either. These are unequivocally "anti-life" practices.

For some reason, Christians only seem to be pro-life when they're talking about unborn babies.

You call yourself a Christian and you seem to be really adamantly pro-unborn baby - can you explain to me the lack of regard for post-womb life?
