“Silly rituals isn’t going to save her”

That’s not exactly how it works. In catholicism, when one is in the state of mortal sin, as in promoting abortion publicly, receiving the Eucharist makes it worse. It compounds it. It’s putting Jesus Himself into an unholy or evil vessel.
The remedy is very very simple. She renounces her position on abortion, makes a good confession and she’s back in

I have known derelicts in Catholic school in elementary school that were not a fraction of the defiance of this woman

What example is she setting

She is pretending that she sets rules above God.

Actually, she received the body of Satan when she did this.

I’m not a Catholic and I’m not at all a believer in transubstantiation, but her open defiance of God MADE the wafer Satan.

Sometimes I wish God wasn’t so patient. Would have been so cool if this happened to her taking Communion.

An Ordinary, in this context, is the head bishop in a particular diocese. In a large or populous diocese, there may be one or more “Auxiliary Bishops” assisting the Ordinary.

Dumb article. The S.F. Archbishop’s ruling does not apply in Washington D.C.

Excommunication comes to mind...

Archbishop Cordileone, her local ordinary, seems to have made a point about this action being pastoral, not political.

It’s really just a shot across the bow (as in, the bow, or the front end, of a ship).

[seamlessly switches analogies...] The ball is now in the House Speaker’s court.

If she responds to the rebuke by adding fuel to the fire, such as saying something like, I don’t care what the Catholic Church says, I’m right and the Church is wrong, she will likely find herself on the receiving end of a clear excommunicatory declaration by that same local ordinary.

LOL!!! Priests don’t get FIRED! The Archbishop of SAN FRANCISCO said she could not receive Holy Communion in that SEE.

Not just Catholics. All Christians.

Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.

The Archbishop has the authority to fire the priest who disobeyed his orders.

Except that it was the Archbishop of San Francisco who issued the order and this priest is in the Archdiocese of Washington.

No.

In consuming the Holy Sacrament if the Altar, she consumed not Satan, but the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord, Jesus Christ.

I don’t know what a SEE is but I’d assume that when you defy someone at a very high level you are subject to punishment
