I’ll applaud Egan and other Roman bishops when they direct their priests, on pain of excummunication, to refuse to serve the Eucharist to Guliani or to any other figure who is known to support the murder of infants.
So long as Egan and others simply say “Tut tut,” they’re derelict shepherds, and it is, indeed, business as usual. What the public needs to see is Guliani coming to the communion rail and being turned away by the Celebrant. “
What you said deserves repeating.
What is a perceived embarassment to a politician, who spits in the eye of the Church, versus their support of 4,000 babies being sliced and diced every single day in America?
Pelosi, Guilani, Kerry, et al. should have been intercepted well in advance, informed that they were in sin, and that until they made amends, the Eucharist was not available to them in accordance with Scripture and Church teaching.
At some point,Christians will no longer have room to keep backing up in the face of evil.
And bishops, as with elders, are accountable to Jesus Christ for their flocks, and held to a higher standard.
Please aim your hysteria and dispepsia at one of the bishops who is not trying to address the situation head on.
Clearly Cardinal Egan is trying to do just that, and he is met by your inaposite whining.
Its like bitching at your kids for not having an A when they bring their grades up to a B from a C.
