I think that the Catholic Church should have a say in political matters, as long as they are only preaching to their believers. I see no issue with the Catholic Church preaching about their views on topics to the believers of Catholisism, and others who are interested, but I do see an issues on the Catholic Church preaching to those who have no desire to hear about what they have to say. We live in a very diverse society, where people are free to believe in whatever they please. With that come understanding that one religion cannot have more power other the masses than others. It simply would not be fair.
