"VALUES VOTERS" AND BIBLICAL INJUNCTIONS: Jose Solano

It's amazing how intelligent people can obfuscate issues and miss the obvious. That there are thousands of injunctions regarding care of the poor in the Bible is not doubted by anyone and all Christians, Jews and Moslems wish to help the poor. Indeed, all religions wish to help the poor. The disagreement comes with the repudiation of biblical injunctions on the sanctity of marriage and of life by what might be called the nouveau culture of death (abortion, embryonic stem cell experiments, etc.) and depravity (homosexuality and a host of other aberrant sexual behaviors.) That's it. Simple. These are the adversarial moral issues and this is what the country revolted against. This is why lifelong Democrats like myself as well as so many Hispanics, Blacks, and Catholics voted for Bush. They used to say "It's the economy stupid." Now they have to realize that "It's morality stupid."
