What Does It Mean For Catholic Dads Voting in 2024?

RFK Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard just shook up the 2024 race by backing Trump. As Catholic dads, we need to discern what this means for our vote and our values. This isn’t just about politics—it’s about defending our faith, our families, and our future. Get the real story and the guidance you need to make the right call.

📖 Scriptural and Catechism References:

Sanctity of Life:
Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) 2270: “Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person—among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life.”
Psalm 139:13-16: “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
Stewardship of Creation:
Laudato Si’, Pope Francis (2015): “The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development, for we know that things can change” (LS, 13).
Genesis 1:28: “And God blessed them. And God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.’”
Discernment and Wisdom:
James 1:5: “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.”
1 Thessalonians 5:21: “But test everything; hold fast what is good.”
Role of Fathers:
Ephesians 6:4: “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.”
Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) 1656-1657: “In our own time, in a world often alien and even hostile to faith, believing families are of primary importance as centers of living, radiant faith. For this reason the Second Vatican Council, using an ancient expression, calls the family the Ecclesia domestica. It is in the bosom of the family that parents are ‘by word and example... the first heralds of the faith with regard to their children.’”
