Both Vice President Joe Biden and Congressman Paul Ryan profess to be Catholic. Thursday, October 11, 2012 was the first Vice Presidential debate in history between two Catholic candidates.

How is each candidate's faith reflected in his political life?

Vice Presidential Debate Between Two Catholics

This is a very important election - our culture and society are being assaulted.

Hi Melissa, Love the cats, by the way! Paul Ryan is showing his faith by being pro life and against same sex marriage. Joe Biden on the other hand is pro choice and goes along with same sex marriage. To me Joe is compromising his faith to get votes of people that are for these issues.

Angie and freeatlast,

I agree with you both. This might very well be the most important election of our lives. And yes, Joe is compromising his faith. Big time.

My husband and I voted early, and now I'll continue praying.

Freeatlast,
Thank you! Those are four of our five cats. Last week we brought our fifth cat (formerly a stray) inside. He's starting to adjust to inside living.
