Pro-lifers would do well to pick better spokespeople. You rely on the same people whose personalities have grated on the folks, church-going and non, to such an extent that it discredits anything they say. The dude is against alter-girls for Heaven's sake! Who's gonna listen to a nutjob like that? If you can't moderate your tone you can at least find a spokesperson who doesn't alienate a large segment of the population. If you claim that the opinion of that segment doesn't matter then you've just admitted that Chaput speaks only to the choir. 23.9% of the US may be catholic but only 38% of those actually go to mass. Perhaps it is because people like chaput have the credibility and moral capital of a corrupt dictator.

Archbishop Chaput a corrupt dictator? I have to admit I have not heard that one yet.

Thanks for raising the discourse to new, unimaginative levels.

As much as necessary.
