Yesterday morning at the grand Cathedral of St. Matthew in Washington D.C., Joe Biden ate and drank his own spiritual death. That he received the Holy Eucharist from the hands of a Cardinal of the Church adds scandal upon scandal. One radio wag called it a mass for Planned Parenthood. And so, it was.
Joe Biden is an enemy of the Catholic faith. This fact must be repeated as often as humanly possible. Joe Biden holds himself out as a faithful Catholic, yet he does not believe in the faith’s fundamental teachings about the human person or human sexuality. What’s more, he advances this unbelief in public policy and will now have the full force of the federal government behind this unbelief.
We know what he will do soon after taking the oath. He will reinstitute a policy that will use American money to target and kill unborn children in the developing world. Biden is an abortion extremist. He favors abortion through all nine months of pregnancy and beyond.
On the LGBT issue, Biden has gone full crank. Consider that the only time Joe Biden has officiated at a wedding, it was between two men. That is relatively mild compared to the fact that he will sign the Equality Act, which will end women’s sports in America. Shockingly, feminists are not up in arms that “girls” with male genitalia will be allowed to compete and even shower with real girls. Biden is going to allow transgender “women” into the military. And this is what will happen. Men who think they are women will be allowed into women’s showers, and if a real woman turns away in modesty, he will bring charges against her for harassment. This kind of persecution is similar to what has happened to Christian ministers in the military who preach gospel truth about men and women.
He will also sign the Global Equality Act that will have the purpose of exporting the LGBT sexual revolution through American foreign policy. The act will also be used to block foreign religious leaders from coming into our country as if they are Russian oligarchs or ISIS leaders.

All of this points to a subject I examine in my next book, Under Siege: No Finer Time to be a Faithful Catholic (Sophia Institute, 2021). We no longer live in a pluralistic society where Catholic, Protestant, Jew and all others are equal before each other and equal before the law. We now live under an established church, what John O’Sullivan describes as an “odd syncretic blend of paganism, sexual polyversity, and scientism.” The establishment of this official church began with the school prayer decisions in the early sixties when the Supreme Court joined as a combatant in the Culture Wars. The new church proceeded through the advent of the pill and its protection by the Supreme Court in the Griswold and Eisenstadt decisions. The new church gathered steam in the Roe v. Wade decision and Lawrence v Texas that constitutionally protected homosexual sodomy. And then the capper, of course, was Obergefell on homosexual marriage.
Consider these new dogmas are now routinely taught to our children in school. They are taught that sex is chosen at birth and that boys can be girls. These are nothing short of religious heresies being imposed on Christian, Jewish, and Muslim children by the New State Church.
Cardinal Wilton Gregory needs to understand that this, and not Catholicism, is Joe Biden’s faith.

I honestly thought that American Catholics would reject this man. I honestly thought they would be uncomfortable having not just a dissenter in the White House but a heretic. I thought they would reject him for the same reasons they rejected that previous heretic, John Kerry. Even “generic” Catholics rejected Kerry. Practicing Catholics rejected Kerry overwhelmingly. It is reported that Biden split the Catholic vote with Trump, but this is very likely not the whole story. Biden probably won the generics but overwhelmingly lost the faithful Catholic vote.
Biden is often compared to John F. Kennedy, the first Catholic elected to the presidency. But I am not aware that Kennedy was a dissenter in matters of the faith, let alone a heretic. He was a sinner, to be sure, just like all of us. But it is my firm belief that when that bullet let fly from the Texas School Book Depository and in the split second before it entered Kennedy’s brain that all those millions of Aves recited for him by Catholic grandmothers reached out from the beatific vision, and he was given a moment of contrition for his sins. In precisely the same way, faithful Catholics must pray for Joe Biden so that at his appointed hour his particular judgment will be, if not a sweet one, at least bittersweet.
In the meantime, every faithful Catholic must oppose this man and his new faith.

No I think he’s right in line with the pope per abortion and men in the girl’s bathrooms.
I was taught through my church (baptized Free Methodist) that if a person is not right with the Lord they should refrain from taking communion
Paul said, “So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord unworthily is guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 11:27, NLT).
Anyone who harbours Sin in their heart eats and drinks unworthily
For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.
He's Pope Frankies chosen man.
“Joe Biden is an enemy of the Catholic faith.”
An enemy of the old Catholic faith, yes. But he’s no enemy of Jesuit Pope Francis’ neo-Catholic faith.
And Pope Frank is just fine with it because they serve the same false God.
Joe Biden is in his own demonic control.

Hate speech. It’s a matter of time before it is banished. /sarc
Good article. The person who chooses hell starts making that choice on earth. Biden has made the choice between his will and the Will of God, and he has chosen against God (over and over). It has been far easier for Biden to develop a hardness of heart toward God than to serve Him well. He really is a sad, pathetic old man.
The Cardinal isn’t much of a pastor.
We all know democrats love killing babies. But how the hell did they get so compliant to the transexual nutcases?
Biden is an abortion extremist.
Jill Biden was previously married and her first husband is still alive—he divorced her because she was having an affair with Joe. In the old days a Catholic who married a divorced person could not receive Communion. I guess that does not apply to important people.
Well I wish he would drink more
It may come as a surprise to many Catholics to face Jesus at their judgment and to learn that He isn’t a Democrat.
AMEN! I grew up in the Methodist church, then we joined Baptist church. Went there until I met husband and we agreed to go to Lutheran church. But at all of these and all the other churches we ever attended or visited we were taught that you do not take communion unless you are RIGHT with THE LORD. You are absolutely right.
It's only marriage between two baptized people that cannot be dissolved; a church annulment would be a finding that such a marriage was never actually contracted.
