But when was the last time a Catholic church denied communion to even one pro-abortion supporter? I'd be very interested to know.

They didn't deny it to Clinton (in Africa, I believe) and he's not even Catholic.

All talk, no backbone. With "Christian's" like that, who needs Satan?

I am a Catholic, and I just found out from another Freeper that the Catholic Church denies communion to staunchly pro-life, decent, honorable, and devoted married Catholics if they did not get married in a Catholic ceremony. I had never heard that before (I knew that the Church didn't recognize the marriage as a Catholic marriage, but I had no idea it was a mortal sin, and I'm sure neither did millions of other Catholics!). John alQerry, a pro-abortion libertine, can receive communion but an anti-abortion, faithful husband or wife cannot if they just happened not to have been married in a Catholic ceremony. Can someone confirm this?
