My liberal friends have been too polite to name this so starkly. But I think this presumption underlies our whole view about the superiority of our approach to life: that we are the party of love, and conservatives are the party of fear.
And, since mercy, not justice, is the predominant theme of the gospel, we believe our wing of Catholicism will prevail in the end.
The only thing keeping us back from winning is our deal with the devil on abortion rights. I can see why we empathize with the poor women in trouble, but I honestly can't explain, after spending so much time among the liberal family, why we fail to humanize the unborn among us.
It would be quite natural for us to champion their cause, too. And then we would have quite a lasting political majority.
