Headline: Biden’s Bishop Silent on Whether Pro-Abortion VP Should Receive Communion

The Most Rev. W. Francis Malooly, Catholic bishop of the diocese of Wilmington, Del., would not say whether a fellow bishop’s contention that Vice President Joe Biden, who supports abortion and gay marriage, should know “he ought not to be receiving Communion” was correct or incorrect.

Sorry to say the Church just flaps its gums on what have been called its “non-negotiable" issues and then does nothing to impose sanctions on such as Biden, Pelosi, any Kennedy, et. al. It winds up making itself look like a joke and who really pays any attention to its "pronouncements" since they are no more than empty rhetoric.

The Church really screwed up with Vatican II. For four long decades they departed from their principles and are only now coming back.

It will be a long, slow process. They will let attrition take care of the Malooly’s and continue to advance the Cordileones, the O’Briens and Dolans until the hierarchy is restored to a more Orthodox leadership The leniency the last generation offered did little to attract new faithful into the pews and drove out a lot of old-time Catholics
