Justification is offered in the so called “seamless garment” point of view that abortion is just one of a myriad of social justice issues Catholics and other Christians should consider when voting.

For some of us, abortion is the single most important issue facing this world. I believe that Jesus weeps over the sin of abortion. I also believe that this nation could not have prospered without the grace of God and it is because of abortion that that grace is being withheld.

Until and unless we stop the overt support of this always intrinsic evil, how can we ask for God’s grace to be upon us?
