Finally, a bishop that lives Jesus’s word. Jesus took marriage very seriously, and for all practical purposes, very strictly, between a man an woman.

On the other hand, my bishop gave communion through the border fence to illegals on the other side wanting to cross.

Last week, I glared at him, and I had to keep praying to stop feeling such hostility to him during Mass.

I wanted to scream at him: “You’re tempting them to sin. For shame!”

I couldn’t concentrate on worshiping God.

Instead, I said to him after Mass, “You are a good shepherd. You knew all the confirmation candidates by name.”

It seemed he scoffed at me.

I should have screamed at him. “You’re not a bishop. Your an agent provocateur for the state.”

A priest (or Bishop) giving the body of Christ to faithful Catholics for their spiritual health is his duty (even to those in prison). I would hope no one would scream at him for that!

Denying Communion to the likes of Pelosi is a different matter however because she publicly spits in the face of the Church by her words and deeds. She should not be given the Eucharist. Illegals wanting to get over here aren’t spewing anti-Catholicism. That’s the difference.
