Joe Biden denied Communion over abortion views
washington times ^ | October 28, 2019 | Victor Morton

Catholic priest says he denied Holy Communion to former Vice President Joseph R. Biden at his parish in South Carolina on Sunday because of the Democratic presidential contender’s support for abortion.

The Rev. Robert E. Morey told the Florence Morning News on Monday that he had refused one of the Catholic Church’s sacraments to Mr. Biden.

“Sadly, this past Sunday, I had to refuse Holy Communion to former Vice President Joe Biden,” Father Morey, pastor at St. Anthony Catholic Church in Florence, told the Morning News via email. “Holy Communion signifies we are one with God, each other and the Church.

Our actions should reflect that. Any public figure who advocates for abortion places himself or herself outside of Church teaching.”

This Bishop certainly supports him. Even if I’m not a Catholic Bishop, Praise God for brave churchmen like this man.

And you know, I think it was first reported here, just as a comment by someone who was there. Or perhaps I saw it elsewhere, like FB, but it was just a comment, now it’s a news story.

All baby-killing RAT “catholics” should be excommunicated.

Slow Joe, and all the other filthy rats who support abortion are in grave danger of doing exactly that.

Joe needs to make a really big stink over this affront to his well known devotion.

Pope Francis will excommunicate this priest and the US Council of Catholic Bishops will condemn him.

I can’t believe there are any Catholics left in the priesthood.

Anyone who promotes abortion openly and legislates for it who has been baptized and confirmed Catholic is living in mortal sin. The cause scandal by leading others into sin

They are automatically excommunicated the way I understand it. It is up to the good priest to enforce it

I've been writing about this here on FR since Bill Clinton and Newt Gingrich and everybody came back with "Catholic Bashing!" I just wrote I didn't understand why Kerry, Pelosi, Biden, all the Kennedy's, and others could take the Sacraments write after an abortion vote. Now its added to sodomy votes.

The the pope wanted to save babies lives just refuse to give Sacraments to these Satan worshipers, otherwise, the RCC isn't really anti abortion. Pelosi even went to the pope and said the church isn't settled on abortion. The pope replied back, but still didn't discipline her.

IMO, a little discipline and a few excommunications and things would change.

IN the future, Biden & his people will make sure the church he plans on attending while on the road, has a priest who takes a more liberal stance.

Honestly, they should know they shouldn’t be taking communion. They are all such a bunch of phonies, on top of their many other failings.

Just saw Brian Kilmeade on Fox and Friends. He was highly critical of the Priest for denying Communion to Biden. H e compared abortion to missing church on Sundays. Kilmeade is a moron, apparently he’s trying to fill the void left by Shepard Smith. Thank God for the priest to deny Communion to these politicians who advocate for the killing of babies, both inside and outside the womb. Too bad Kilmeade doesn’t get.
