I need to do penance, because I am GLAD Joe Biden will not be allowed to receive communion. I am ashamed of myself. [I Was Raised Catholic]

30 Bishops of the Catholic church are now working on a document that will clarify what it means to be Catholic.

Those public figures who openly endorse abortion are in violation of the teachings of the Catholic church, and the Catholic Church will eventually have that right out there in writing with the support of 30 Catholic Bishops.

Unless and until these public figures STOP endorsing abortion, it is the HEIGHT of hypocrisy for them to continue receiving communion as though they were part of the body of Christ.

Joe Biden, when asked about this, refuses to comment...says, "That's personal." Noooo, Joe...

It's personal to everyday Catholics, IMO. But if the President of the United States is MODELING support of abortion to the entire world, is it personal any longer? That's the whole POINT, Joe. This is NOT a personal issue for public figures.

And that goes double and triple for Nancy Pelosi who drools on about her "heart of love" and how [i]HOLY[/i] she is. NOT.

Jesus, in the New Testament, was upset about the hypocrisy of the Pharisees...so I think it's not without precedent to be upset at the massive hypocrisy of our highest public figures.

I'm an ex catholic and if you are going to call yourself a catholic then you have to BE A CATHOLIC.
I dont really care one way or the other, it's their church and can do as they please. People complaining who are not Catholics or even religious seem silly.

@FreeSpirit1 Im far from Catholic or religious but the day they accepted taxpayer money it became everyones business

@MarineBob No it isn't, you can have an opinion but you cant decide how they run their church, if they say he can't receive communion that's their decision.
The NFL got tax money to encourage vaccines, do we get to say who the starting lineup is for a certain team?

@FreeSpirit1 I hesitate to intervene, because I really don't want an argument, but if our tax dollars are being used to fund abortion those who are Catholic are being forced into mortal sin. The Catholic Church believes that abortion is murder. That's entirely different from your specious example of the NFL.

@DeWin I feel SO badly for you. Your mother and step father were nearly criminal in their rejection of you. I wish I could enfold you in the REAL meaning of the love of God.

@4meAndyou well I agree with the church on that and if they say he can't receive communion then its their decision. Even if I was pro abortion its their church not mine. Would people tell mosques who recieve education Grants how they should teach the Muslim faith? I dont think so.

@FreeSpirit1 AND if the Muslim religion were forced to pay for pork to be issued to all food pantries in the nation, that would probably burn their butts.
