How do we know if Vice President Biden went to Confession before Communion? And why on Earth are they using cameras in church? I am certainly glad that I am not photographed at church especially when going to Communion. That is supposed to be very personal and humbling while receiving Jesus’ body and possibly blood.
The issue is Scandal in C915. Therefore confession alone not sufficient. There needs to be public recantation of sinful act, in this case support for abortion.
Dolan should know that.
We don't know that. But, we do know that if he did and confessed his sin of promoting abortion and received absolution without a public repentance and penance for his public disobedience, well, we know he found a very shoddy, incompetent confessor.
