Nuncio: Catholics must not be afraid to let faith shape political choices

In a homily to the Eucharistic Procession in Cork City for the feast of Corpus Christi, Archbishop Charles J Brown said such events teach Catholics that their lives of faith cannot be confined to the inside of churches and that their faith needs to affect how they interact in public as citizens.
“We must never be afraid to allow our faith to influence and shape our political choices, especially on choices and questions which involve the most basic human values, such as the right to life itself,” he said, to applause from the thousands gathered in the city centre.
