Gonna be interesting to see how Scharfenberger handles that one.

I don't expect any "showdown" tomorrow at the ordination and installation. That would be imprudent. Quite possibly, we may never know since the bishop is responsible to charitably address these issues in private. Those discussions are not made public.

Sure they are made public. Senator Dick Durbin’s Bishop recently told him publicly not to receive Holy Communion due to his high active work in support of abortion.

Whether Cuomo continues to receive Communion is a public matter. If he receives, it is a grave public scandal, and a mortal sin for any priest or other minister of Communion, and for the bishop.

Actually, it would be perfectly appropriate for the homilist at the Mass to to remind all the pro-abortion politicians, and those who have voted for them, not to come up for Communion.
