    You cant have it both ways, break the churchs tenets, then use it for political gain during campaigns.

    Joe Biden denied communion at mass because of abortion stance

    Democratic front-runner Joe Biden was reportedly denied communion by a priest at a South Carolina Catholic church over the weekend.

    Biden, a lifelong Catholic, stopped by Saint Anthony Catholic Church in Florence on Sunday, but was denied Holy Communion by Father Robert E. Morey, local newspaper the South Carolina Morning News reported.

    “Sadly, this past Sunday, I had to refuse Holy Communion to former Vice President Joe Biden,” Father Morey told the newspaper in a statement.

    “Holy Communion signifies we are one with God, each other and the Church. Our actions should reflect that. Any public figure who advocates for abortion places himself or herself outside of Church teaching.”

    He should leave that poisonous organisation, which protects child abusers, and join a church which is less morally bankrupt. Better yet, he could throw away the religious nonsense altogether.

    Well if he wants to avoid nonsense seems to me secular humanism is what he should avoid. Religion based an humans being God, nothing is more nonsensical than that.

    I wonder if they would offer communion to an adulterous, lying, con that is killing living children by separating them from their parents?

    Well, Jesus still has his human body and is still fully human and fully God.

    Albeit Jesus is more than human only.

    Hmmm, that's a great question. I am wondering if he would deny communion to parents that dragged their kids across a dangerous desert so they could get free shyt

    absolutely, He should join a church that gives communion to godless baby killers because you think they would be less morally bankrupt, good idea!

    FWIW, I only go to Church for weddings and funerals, but I was raised catholic (alter boy) and attended catholic school, fortunately I survived all those years w/o having to test my gag reflex :brushteeth:

    I'm familiar with the scandals, and I have no love for the catholic church, or the coverup, so I'm not a fan, but with that said they are allowed to have standards, and refuse communion to anyone that they feel the need to refuse, its their right.

    ya, I agree here, even moses wandered the desert for 40 days (or was that noah and the ark, and moses was 40 years?) Not sure if he brought kids with him but after 40 years he probably thought he saw one. The details are sketchy to me, I fell asleep during that sermon.

    now THAT part I'm pretty sure is supported in the bible, somewhere :) but to confirm you'd have to ask someone who gives a dam

    Let me explain Christianity

    We believe that everyone can enter God's dimension if they open their hearts to Him. This happens when a person recognizes themselves as being a sinner and repents. Repentance therefore is the key in uniting with God, so it doesn't matter if a person is a saint or a murderer as long as they repent. The Church's job therefore is to edify people towards repentance, and also to preserve people's lives so they will have the chance to repent.

    If someone doesn't realize that they are sinners and receives Holy Communion without repenting, it means they see themselves as being the decisive factor of what is right and wrong. In other words they have become gods in their own right. So instead of growing in Grace by receiving Holy Communion (Eucharist), they are adding to their self pride. That makes the Eucharist detrimental to their soul rather than beneficial.

    Biden should not have tried to receive the Eucharist, since he lacks the enlightenment of God's Grace. If he didn't lack it, he would recognize abortion as being a sin. The priest was actually doing him a favor.

    LOL! What a load of poppycock!

    So it's OK with the Church if priests rape as long as they repent...ya, I knew that long ago how they wriggle out of everything they do wrong and damn the consequences..

    ....it's quite sickening what they do to actual BORN, feeling, children...and how they excuse it...
