Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
brave man - he will suffer
Well I hope he doesn’t get transfer to Frisco or Los Angeles apparently he lose lots of money from wealthy pro choice donors
I'm only half-stunned. Had he said "we will refrain from offering parishioners Holy Communion if they voted for Barack Obama", I'd be fully stunned.
No he won’t.
Secondly, we are actually without a bishop right now. Our (former) Bishop Baker is very conservative and is now the Bishop of the diocese of Birmingham. Additionally, our archbishop is conservative too, and he and Bishop Baker and another bishop were the 3 that wrote the letter during the ‘04 election stating Catholics like Kerry should be denied communion.
40 million purnishments prevented from taking their first breath in the past 20 years.
Why do you keep saying that nonsense?
Wow, what an impressive lady!
Denying communion because of who someone voted for? Many people didn’t even think about abortion when they voted for O or any dem for that matter. They voted for a variety of reasons. While I like his stand against abortion I find his reasoning idiotic. Sorry. This one goes in my stupid file.
If you are Catholic and do not see the logic in what he says, then you are stupid.
The biggest donors in the Church are orthodox. They donate much, actually believe what the Church teaches and never miss Mass.
Please send Father an email of appreciation and prayers for him to stay strong...he is right! I sent one!

Are you Catholic?
So much for looking to the Church for guidance. I was amazed to learn that my mother's priest, whose parish is in one of the most conservative counties in TEXAS, completely washed his hands of this issue. He held an all night vigil the night before election day, in which he invoked the parishioners to pray that God's will be served by the peoples' choice. Then she went and voted for OBAMA! She was amazed when I told her about Obama's votes on BAIPA. She knew nothing. The priest had told his flock nothing.
Well, an important thing to consider about all of this, is that if the priests and bishops do not do this, and they knowingly give these unrepentant people communion, they are also guilty of allowing them to partake in communion, and taking damnation upon themselves.
God will take care of his own. God bless the bishop.
Great decision! Let’s see how long the Priest can make it and whether or not the Priest will succumb to the pressure of the liberals.
This is when we need to stand up for our principles, folks.

If you are a CHRISTIAN and do not see the logic in what he says, then you are stupid.
And then some....
I hope other priests do the same...it’s about time. Bishops are also coming down hard.
