I am not pro choice, but I do understand the not refusing Communion. I don't have to like it, but I do understand it. I can imagine a priest being able to not serve a person Communion if they came up for it and the refused person accepted that. But what if the person threw a colossal fit? That could be upsetting to the rest of the Congregation.

I would be most interested in hearing from the pastoral side. Most especially now that we deploy all these extraordinary ministers.

It is canon law that says pro-abortion politicians are to be refused communion. They openly mock the church show and show great scandal by going up for communion, while at the same time supporting and sponsoring pro-abortion legislation. Wuerl and Dolan and other liberal priests ignore canon law, and are allowed to get by with ignoring it.
