Nobody has any common sense anymore. In the last week I've had to call 911 on two car accidents. As an ex paramedic, I'm used to dealing with emergency dispatchers, but they were from 20 years ago. Nowadays they were so dull that after I gave full assessments on the phone, BOTH dispatchers asked me questions I had already answered. To both dispatchers I had to say "I already answered that." This is also the effect of a legalistic culture that puts law and technology over common sense and medicine.

Two Pre-Vatican II theologians on voting:
· Tanquerey (traditional moral theologian) – If the vote is between two evil persons, one may vote for the less evil and most profitable to the cause of good. (Tomus Tertius, De Variis Statuum Obligationibus, Caput I, De officiis laicorum, n. 999). Prummer concurs.
· Merkelbach (traditional moral theologian) – When given a choice between two candidates who aren’t perfect, it is licit to elect the better candidate to prevent a more unworthy candidate from coming into power if there is no hope that a perfect candidate will be elected. “Voters who, through grave fault by abstaining from voting do not stop an evil decision, election, or law from coming to pass, if they are bound by a specific duty to stop a foreseen harm which follows, are cooperators in evil.” (Summa Theologiae Moralis, Tomus Secundus, Tractatus De Virtute Cardinali Justitiae, Tertia Pars, Sectio A, De Justitia Commutativa, n. 316)

When sharing the Catholic Faith with Protestants, I believe the most important of the three faulty-pillars to collapse is their odd "Sola Scriptura" insistence. The following is a 30 minute read, but it has been my "go to" for almost 20 years (first in pamphlet form before it was on the web.) https://www.catholicfidelity.com/twenty-one-reasons-to-reject-sola-scriptura-by-joel-peters/

The Gospel and the Catholic Church exist "to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins."—Acts 26:18
