Archbishop enters communion debate
Advertisements [?]
DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- Communion should be withheld only in "extraordinary cases of public scandal," the archbishop of Denver said on Tuesday amid a growing national debate over religion, politics and voting.

Archbishop Charles Chaput, leader of Colorado's largest Roman Catholic diocese, said anyone committing a serious sin such as theft, lying or adultery should not take the sacrament, but "denying anyone communion is a very grave matter."

It's about time! It seems to me that the Archbishops are being a bit less partisan than the bishops. Mahoney has said similar things.

Let's put these fascist bishops in line or, better yet, get rid of them.
