In Austin, Our Priest read a letter from our Bishop during the homily on Sunday Mass.

It was quite blistering as well.

A Baptist friend of mine said their Reverend came out against the ruling as well.

I’m thankful our religious leaders are standing up for morality.

"The letter will ask Catholics in the Omaha Archdiocese to pray about the issue and to contact their congressional representatives to pass legislation overturning the rule."

Dear Bishop,

We already tried that. They ignored us.

Now it's up to you and your fellow Bishops.

EXCOMMUNICATE THEM!

Allowing these followers of Satan to participate in Holy Communion mocks the rest of us who remain faithful.

Our Bishop Nienstedt did the same and our Pastor read the letter this weekend. It’s time Catholics start voting as a bloc and in line with our beliefs. If so, we become the largest voting bloc in the country.

Archbishop Schnurr’s letter (the one I posted the other day) was read after the Gospel Sunday. I’ve emailed Boehner, Brown and Portman. I admit that I’d like to see some more action from the good bishops toward those purportedly Catholic politicians who support and enact this sort of garbage. I guess some of them (the politicians) think they’re doing something useful, and some don’t care (CINOs), but no matter the motivation, Sebelius and the rest are breaking the law of the land.

Just as a point of information so everyone knows, Sebelius has been asked to refrain from Communion by her bishop (Abp. Naumann of Kansas City, KS), and the Archbishop of Washington, D.C., has said that she should abide by that while in Washington as well.

It's not, technically, a formal excommunication, but it's more than has been done WRT Pelosi, Biden, etc.
