The archbishop of San Francisco said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is Catholic, can no longer receive the sacrament of communion because of her efforts to protect abortion rights.

Archbishop Salvatore J. Cordileone wrote in a public post Friday that his"many requests" have not been accepted to speak with Pelosi, who is from San Francisco, since. The archbishop said he communicated to Pelosi on April 7 that, should she not publicly repudiate her"advocacy for abortion 'rights" or refrain from referring to her faith in public, he would have no choice but to deny her communion.

The archbishop referred to the Catholic Church's Cannon 915, which says that,"Those who have been excommunicated or interdicted after the imposition or declaration of the penalty and others obstinately persevering in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to holy communion." The Chatecism of the Catholic Church is against abortion.

"As you have not publically repudiated your position on abortion, and continue to refer to your Catholic faith in justifying your position and to receive Holy Communion, that time has now come," the archbishop wrote."Therefore, in light of my responsibility as the Archbishop of San Francisco to be 'concerned for all the Christian faithful entrusted to [my] care' ...

Good that lady is a 2 face

meanwhile, he said priests can still drive drunk and molest boys.....

Go to the pope

Ok, get it right…please study the catholic faith a bit and understand what they stand for. Let her go to another church for communion. This is not a big deal. Intelligent folks understand.

OMG, she’s been excommunicated. Thank goodness they aren’t hanging or burning any longer. This should be acceptable to her and her comrade to her right. When I was at Air Force Survival training, they put us in little boxes and shoved us in this position

Good the way they have the law is crazy a woman can have an abortion up to the birth of the baby if that's not murder I don't know what is then

Don’t they say that every year? I don’t imagine she really cares beyond using that for political hay making.

ExcommunicateNancy and all pro-abort faux Roman Catholics.

Thank God.

Doesn't old Nancy support abortion for any reason throughout the nine months of gestation? That's why the archbishop spoke up. Good for him!

Good for him!

Fake news - her religion is her personal view

The nerve

Pontifex

Excellent

I bet she is so upset!

So does this mean SpeakerPelosi will go to hell?

He got it mixed up with her HAVING an abortion…and I doubt he can judge anyone. How about anyone who looked the other way while thousands were abused gets no Holy Communion?!?!

About time

Good Jesus will be more harsh than the archbishop.

If California were smart, they would build a wall around her house

The Pope needs to recall or punish this archbishop

I'm sure she's all broken up over that. Clearly she was a devout practicing catholic who had to choose between her faith and abortion...

She isn't a Catholic. She supports abortion. Her claims to Catholicism are as true as the Alphabet Media claims to 'not be Marxists'.

Good!!

He should rescind her ability to receive the other sacraments such as last rites and burial on consecrated ground.

Because the Democratic Party is so anti religion and anti God.

To the fanatics/self righteous/hypocrites, religion is just a facade of convenience 4 you. You are anti-abortion, don't see you cried about the millions Iraqis/Afghans/Syrians killed by US soldiers. You love peace, never heard you complained about weapons sent around the world

Who cares ? I mean really.

So what?

She can do whatever she wants.

These Archbishops😰

No cracker for you! That'll show em

They want to take a side they should pay taxes like everyone else

Wafer schmafer

Does he know her conscience? Has he even spoken with her?

Well I can hear it all now. Nancy pelosi calling for the termination of the archbishops employment 🤣😂😄

She publicly admits to being with mortal sin. Hell no she should remain in her seat and not take the Holy Eucharist. All Catholics know this.

Disgusting!

Hahaha!!!

Yes, she is a WITCH!

Nancy doesn't give a rats ass! These's plenty of churches in SF!

As long as he is at it, will he do the same to all Catholic parishioners who are on the pill?

Who cares!!! Keep it up Nancy!

Ssssooooo the Archbishop is God now, seriously who is he to think he did God step down and appoint him!

This dude recently from a 20+ year coma or just slow?

Rules are rules. Even for Mrs top shelf liquor lady.

Drunk, lying whooah

Where is your coverage of the moot testimony when he said Hillary planned all the lies

We’ll I guess we should give thanks that alter boys don’t get pregnant.

But priests can molest children and be hidden by the church for decades....

CatholicChurch has met their match in SpeakerPelosi and Pontifex has made it clear he’s not in favor in denying communion to politicians because of their views.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 go to another church.. no biggie 🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽

So now you’re not even allowed to talk about choice… let alone have any. What’s next… don’t say Gay? Oh wait.

She can receive communion…the Pope can suspend or fire the Archbishop!

If we had term limits, the headline would read 'Senior citizen denied communion by another senior citizen '

Why is this Radical Catholic Agenda Being forced on America? We must maintain the separation between church & state

Just another Mafia

He no playsa the game, he no maka da rules!

Nancy Pelosi, who needs to he a Catholic?

She is a woman who can stand up for herself and others..thank you..God bless you

Her constant refrain during her reelection process is... 'I do this for the children' Lying two faced (insert female genitalia pejorative).

I'm more holy than you said the spokesman for a church that hides pedophiles

Do all the Catholic pedophile priests still get communion? You bet they do.

Some good news. That every illegal the Biden Admin is allowing to cross our boarder right now, except for the terror cells, drug cartel and gang members; nearly every single one of them is pro-life and Christian.

I don’t support abortion be it of any kind, why are these religious groups participating political issues? Who os he to judge anyone and refuse offering her sacraments?

Archbishop Cordileone refers to Pelosi's efforts to protect abortion access. He doesn't, of course, believe that there are any such things as abortion rights. Catholic

Good…

This morning, Iran is on fire. Where is the world to kill protesters? Where are the Western flags that call for freedom, damn you?

👎👎👎👎

This is not the catholic way. How upsetting Cordileone hates women PopeFrancis MSNBC abc SanFrancisco

Why Church is against abortion rights? Can someone pls. educate me? Thanks..

Can’t stand Pelosi but this is breaking new to the Priest? GTFOH!!!!

As it should be! That is not how our religion should be represented

Let’s fix headline, because of SpeakerPelosi’s efforts to kill unborn children. Years from now, reflecting on abortion could be viewed as HumanRights violations. Understand first trimester, after 13 weeks, does late term abortion make sense. Is adoption an alternative.

I recall them saying Biden couldn't too but the Pope said he could and that he was a very good Catholic.

Leave it to the CatholicChurch to demonstrate Medieval practices at a time of much needed tolerance and admission to pragmatic teaching. GOD expects us TAKECAREOF of what we bring into this world

Fk'em

The Catholic Church should lose it's non-tax status immediately if it is going to involve itself in politics.

julytetoo Pontifex , think you may need to have a talk with your guy.

Does she still have to give the Church 10%? or since no communion does she get a discount? Asking for a friend who attends St. Mattress of the Springs

She doesn’t care! She cares more about others then the Catholic Church.

The Catholic Church has too much power in America. See the Supreme Court.

So, let me get this straight, Christians aren't allowed to receive communion in a Christian church. I am so confused. Time to appeal to the Pope. Pontifex CatholicNewsSvc

Obligatory reminder that the Bible, and therefore Christianity, is pro-abortion.

:

The backward Catholic Church. Why would anyone..?

Like he has the right to do that foh

It's about time somebody told her NO to something

i think She have right to declare she's efforts to protect abortion rights, how ever Catholic Church also had rights to do based on Their Religion.

So Pelosi's is doing God's work while the archbishop is doing Satan's bidding. Religion is a creation of Satan as a way to divide humans and create hate in the world. Churches/'holy' buildings are just temples made to worship and praise Satan.

Why are atheists mad at a christian catholic church and trying to force it to change it's rules? Honestly ya'll should sit down and leave it to those who actually have anything to do with the matter.

Imagine living your life based off of and around a bunch of made up fairytales. Ridiculous.

No Christian should be denied Communion by any human being. Communion is strictly between the Believer and God. The Archbishop is sinning, by interfering with God’s relationship with mankind!!

CBS the Archbishop of SF is right about Speaker Nancy Pelosi not being able tom receive the Sacrament of Communion. I am praying she burns in Hell.

If this is the case, it should be between Nancy Pelosi and her priest . Otherwise she’s upholding the promises she made to her constituents. Separation of church and state.

Tax that church...

He gets big ones. He gets little ones

Not for her efforts to 'Protect abortion rights' but rather her advocating the killing of innocent babies. That is what abortion is in fact. She has ex-communicated herself from the Catholic Church

old rules for old minds. a book that was write 2,000 years ago....ok....we have people in space now.... bye

The Archbishop of San Francisco should sit down and shut up.

Look at the bright side pelosi can't receive the Holy sacrament but John Kerry gets 2 wives at once.

well, So.much for following Christ's belief in Forgiveness.

The death penalty is also contrary to Catholic doctrine. Shouldn't pols who support capital punishment also be denied Hypocrisy

Chatecism?

Then they should lose ta. free status for denying someone of their religious freedom.

This archbishop is so mistaking. His “title” must have got to him or something. He should know he’s not the judge for the choices we make. God wants us to choose on our own. Satan tells us what to do. We will only find out how we did on this earth when we see Him again.

What a guy. Guys really know a lot about rights. Especially ones who say women can’t be priests.

Will be interesting to see if the Pope reverses this.

The archbishop should instead focus on the pedophiles within the catholic church and stop policing women's body on the guise of religion. Yes, I too am catholic. My faith is in God more that religious org.

That’s between her and God.

He has every right to refuse to give her communion,

How unholy of the holy

Excellent! She is Catholic, then follow the rules. That's it!

Does this mean Pelosi doesn’t have to give to the church?

Oh no! She will melt in the ground now! Stop these foolish man-made rituals. Keep the religion out of our government!

That is disappointing and shameful. The Democrats are the only party doing things to help the poor.

Archbishop shouldn’t be casting stones. Not what Jesus would do. Needs to get his pedo rank and file under control.
