**Obama won solid support from Catholics in last week’s election, exit polls indicated, even though the church opposes the view,**
CATHOLICS did NOT vote for Obama. Only CINOs (Catholics in Name Only) voted for him. What is sad is that they excommunicated themselves by doing so and they don’t even realize the consequences of their actions.
Archbishop Raymond Burke from St. Louis was recently elevated to a position of some enforcement authority at the Vatican.
My wife calls him the top cop for The Church.
This is a no-nonsense bishop. During the last presidential campaign, John Kerry was not even due to come to St. Louis for months, yet the good Archbishop called a press conference to announce specifically that if Kerry did show his face in St. Louis he was not to receive communion.
Lurch instead got someone in Boston to give it to him, publicly of course.
With Archbisop Burke at the controls, things might start to happen. We shall see.
You are correct, Salvation, they DON’T know they’ve excommunicated themselves. And they don’t know it because most bishops don’t TELL them so.
The road to Hell, etc., etc...

PS: Unfortunately, even if the bishops started telling them right now, many would ignore them. They no longer fear excommunication. The bishops fell down on the job here, letting decades go by before acting and I fear they’ve lost a generation or two by their inaction.
