“Those who are involved directly in lawmaking bodies

have a ‘grave and clear obligation to oppose’ any law that

attacks human life. For them, as for every Catholic, it is

impossible to promote such laws or to vote for them...

Democracy must be based on the true and solid

foundation of nonnegotiable ethical principles, which are

the underpinning of life in society.” Doctrinal Note on

Some Questions Regarding the Participation of Catholics

in Political Life, The Vatican, 11/24/02.
