Why is it that only Catholics (or phonies like Pelosi who falsely claim to be Catholic) are described at “devout”? I never hear Protestants or Jews described as “devout.” Does the mainstream media write these stories on autopilot?
Nah it’s that Sacrament of Communion thing.
I mean really going to Church to receive communion. They have to be “DEVOTE”
Even though Protestants have the same sacrament. Because most don’t have Communion EVERY service, THEY aren’t “DEVOTE./s
IMO it’s is the underlying hatred of Christ that drives this attitude.
NOW FOR NASTY NAN:
Does he who knowingly receives Holy Communion in mortal sin receive the body and blood of Christ and His graces?
He who knowingly receives Holy Communion in mortal sin receives the body and blood of Christ, but he does not receive His graces and commits a grave sin of sacrilege.
(a) To receive Holy Communion unworthily is a serious abuse of the sacred body and blood of the Lord, and therefore a sacrilege.
Tell us nan do you think Abortion is a MORTAL SIN. It doesn’t matter if you personally haven’t had one. You have provided money and support to the abortionist. IMO
In fact it's only Catholic Democrat politicians who reject the teachings of the Church who are called "devout"...
Shhh.
Do a google on “lieberman devout” and you will see that your premise is quite incorrect. Also try “devout baptist”, “devout episcopalean” (Robert E. Lee is so described on one site), “devout jew” or even “devout muslim”.
