But the question remains: why is it that Catholic/Christian candidates and lobby groups are all aflame about issues Jesus never mentioned, like homosexuality and abortion, yet staunchly opposed to most of his teachings on materialism, taking care of the "least among us," the money-changers, etc. and why do Catholic candidates and lobbyists pointedly ignore the Pope's pronouncements along the same lines? (Notice my beef here is with hypocrisy, not lobbying per se.)
Good one, Jane!
