Americans 'overwhelmingly united' on moral issues, Knights of Columbus leader says :: Catholic News Agency (CNA

In an interview with CNA, Anderson suggested that political pundits and the mainstream media exaggerate the divisions in American public life and often confuse political differences with disagreement over moral principles.

Core “Judeo-Christian values are the guiding moral compass for the overwhelming majority of Americans,” Anderson stated.

His recently released book relies on a close reading of public opinion research to debunk the myth of an America polarized over issues such as abortion, homosexual marriage, and other issues.

Anderson said he was surprised by the degree to which Americans share similar core values. “On issue after issue, even on the issues that one would think divide us most — like abortion — the unity was astounding,” he said.

My opinion is that Mr. Anderson has his head in the sand! I've seen and know of many "Catholics" who are either lukewarm or even support abortion, homosexual marriage and other issues. If he is right, then why have so many "Catholics" voted for pro-abortion politicians and even sent them donations? Something stinks here and I think it's the truth not being told.
