I doubt she will even read it. I believe the staff will keep it from her. Can you imagine being the staffer that has to take her that note....you never know how punished he or she will be.

And when Nancy Pelosi touched the letter, it burst into flames, coincidence? I think not.

I'm sure he'll be reassigned by the bishop.

Especially in SF - although perhaps their new bishop is better than I expected him to be. Their last bishops have ranged from awful to indifferent (including, IMHO, Levada).

“If you can kill a baby in the womb, Nancy, why not outside of it?”

The question that cannot be answered, without changing a "baby" into a tomato, or something else.

Of course there are those on the left who believe that we should be able to kill babies outside the womb(think Peter Singer or even Obama) but I don't think that our 'moderate' legislators are willing to say it out loud....yet (if We continue down the liberal road then the time will come as it does with all Socialist, lefty nations).

Here's another ingorant Pelosiism:

http://ncronline.org/NCR_Online/archives/012403/012403a.htm

“I didn’t think I wanted to be a nun,” the new House minority leader, Nancy Pelosi, recalled. “But I thought I might want to be a priest. There seemed to be a little more power there, a little more discretion over what was going on in the parish.”

Good for this priest. However, his request that she not accept Communion is probably pointless. Pro-choice Catholic politicians will accept Communion until forced to do otherwise. Then they will sue for "violation of their first amendment rights." Count on it.

And then on the evangelical side (from which I hail) homosexuals will sue because a church will not marry them.

I get tired of all the liberals saying that morality should not be legislated.

That argument falls flat on its face when they bring it up. Morality is legislated, how else would we make it legal to kill the unborn?

Some sort of morality had to come into play to come up with that decision!

Please everyone, pray for this good priest. Hell's wrath will descend on him and he needs our prayers for his strength and well being. Remember, he's in the same diocese as that parish that was loaning out the church hall to the gay bingo fundraiser that featured the "sisters of perpetual indulgence"

Pray for him.

Rob

I hope he sent CC to his archbishop, the archbishop of Washington, DC, and all those bishops who are trying to "pastor" Speaker Pelosi instead of telling her she is dead wrong.

“But I thought I might want to be a priest. There seemed to be a little more power there..."

That sentence right there speaks volumes and says it all.

I guess open condemnation by a priest is a start. When is the upper management going to kick in and just remove these abortion supporters and all that allow them to continue in their congregations from the RCC?

I was promised that the new Pope was just about to do SOMETHING just after he first stepped into the See, but it has been nearly two years and no action has been taken. Whyzzat? This should be an easy thing to show to be inspired, the condemnation of all that support this Herodian infanticide.

Please don't tell me this is because its just political posturing from the head of the self-proclaimed Only True Church!?!

I don't think any Catholic laity can answer. I agree about the slowness and what looks like a political situation by the bishops.

The only way one can view the problem is if one is active in the pro-life movement, which I am. A problem I see is that all denominations are at fault and in most cases if it were not for the Catholic Church there would be no effort at all.

There are 144 churches in the two counties my group works in and the only response we have had in 3 years is from the Catholic Church and two Evangelical churches. We even had clergy who have told us that his/her church was not a "pro-life church". To me that is an abomination and certainly a non-Christ Church posing as a Christian Church.

There is evil in all churches and they should be all condemned.

Thank you Franky!! Now we should paste this letter and send it to Ted "Breast Stroke" Kennedy, John Kerry, Pat Leahy, et al. I also think this should go to their Bishops and Cardinals.

SF priest tells Nancy she shouldn't go to communion because of her pro-abortion politics. Wow.
