Being a newbie Catholi...Thank you for your opinion. Being a newbie Catholic, it is so confusing to look at a worldwide church 2000 years old and try and understand it. It is good to hear another point of view.

The Knights haven't endorsed those candidates or anti-life positions in any way. But there's tons of proof daily of their pro-life and pro-marriage work. <br /><br />And about the insurance - my dad got me Knights insurance when I was a kid, and I've kept it ever since. It's the only insurance company which refuses to invest in areas that go against church teaching (like embryonic stem cell research, etc). I can't always be sure where my money goes, but with them I know it's going to helping haiti orphans and things. Kinda gives a different spin on "life" insurance!M-https://www.blogger.com/profile/14265543015131756535noreply@blogger.com
