520    "Throughout its history the Catholic Church has taken 
       positions on many subjects that are in one sense political,
       but in another sense are primarily moral, such as 
       contraception, homosexuality, and divorce. One such issue,
       abortion, has split not only the United States, but 
       Catholics as well. Catholics had to confront these issues 
       within the framework of a democratic society that had no 
       official religion. Abortion, Religious Freedom, and 
       Catholic Politics is a study of opposing American Catholic
       approaches to abortion, especially in terms of laws and 
       government policies. After the ruling of Roe vs. Wade, 
       many pro-life advocates no longer felt their sentiments 
       and moral code aligned with Democrats. For the first time,
       Catholics, as an entire group, became involved in U.S. 
       politics. Abortion became one of the principal points of 
       division in American Catholicism: a widening split between
       liberal Catholic Democrats who sought to minimize the 
       issue and other Catholics, many of them politically 
       liberal, whose pro-life commitments caused them to support
       Republicans. James Hitchcock discusses the 2016 
       presidential campaign and how it altered an already 
       changed political landscape. He also examines the 
       Affordable Care Act, LGBT rights, and the questions they 
       raise about religious liberty."--|cProvided by publisher.
