Kerry's spokesman said he was trying to avoid insulting anybody. I forgot to post the picture of him actually committing what the Catholic religion says is a mortal sin. But then, that doesn't matter, because for Kerry, Catholicism means whatever he says it does. Isn't that just super?
And by so doing he insulted a lot of his fellow catholics.
There are other ways situations such as this could have been handled. Those people he is photographed with would not be welcome to receive communion in the catholic church. There is a blurb in the missalette explaining why. I wonder if they realize that?
