I love the way Kerry skirted around the abortion question. He flaunts his Catholicism (the pious altar boy of yesteryear) and then says that he rejects their teachings. Even here he flip flops. He is a Catholic when it is convenient and rejects the teachings of his church when it isn't politically popular. Such conviction!
I know lots of people that are Catholic but don't agree with some of the Catholic teachings. I went to a Catholic school for 11 years. No offense to any Catholics on this board, but some of the things they teach are just totally bizarre.
I have friends who actually follow the Catholic religion, go to church and all that, but still don't agree with some of the views of the Catholic church. It really depends on each person - everyone has his/her own view of things.
