By a vote of 168 to 55, with six abstentions, the bishops went forward with plans for a report on the meaning of the Eucharist in the church. The vote is part of a longer process, and a rebuke of Biden and other Catholic politicians who support abortion rights is not assured. The report will be developed over the summer and presented for amendments and approval in November.
"They have chosen to disobey Jesus's command to 'feed one another,' but everyday U.S. Catholics -- 67 percent of whom oppose withholding Communion and other Sacraments from supporters of abortion rights -- will continue to know better and do better."Biden has for years been asked to square his devout Catholicism with his politics.The President has been a regular at Mass since childhood and attended Catholic schools.
Cathalic Church , clean up your own petifile practice, before you judge others note: read Matthew gospel
Catholic Church (not necessarily Catholics) has all kind of stupid crazy rules Catholic enters marriage outside of the Catholic Church without the necessary dispensation, then the marriage is considered invalid and is not recognized
That church encourages and allows the raping of children and has for generations just hiding the criminals away to attack another church of innocent children along with the atrocities they have committed throughout history instead of judging good men clean your own house
So they don’t have time to address priest molesting kids problem but yet they have to time to be politic .....they need to be serving politicians and not Christ! This is completely wrong Christianity teaching!
They’re gonna be even more pissed to hear about his stance on child rapists.
he believes in a womans right to choose that dosen't mean he is for abortion it just means he believes a woman should have the same right a gun owner has .
How does the Bishop's feel about gun violence? They seem completely mum on the topic.
Discrimination, you say?
The US bishops SHOULD bear in mind, Jesus came to heal the sick, if Biden is wrong he needs healing, NOT REJECTION.
Boooooo
As a Catholic I believe the Church has alienated so many of it’s faithful already. It is not Christ like to disavow practicing Catholics. So it will be less money for the Church. The Church that is always demanding more money from it’s congregation. Too bad & sad.
Ok so we have to accept that everything the church says and does is always right!? Even how to run an orphanage? Celibacy? Forced adoption of children from young mothers?
The devil takes hold of the church. It’s a shame. I’ll cut off my monthly contribution. USCCB
The Catholic Church should learn to stay out of politics.
Blackmail apparently got left off the 10 Commandments...
Thereby disobeying Pope Francis, the infallible one.
The church shouldn’t have a say in shit until they start paying taxes like everyone else!
That will be the last straw for me.
Just what you need in the 21st century……church sticking its nose in to politics. The Spanish Inquisition was a little more extreme but the theology was the same!! Only in America.
Are they also rebuking the priests who molested little boys? How many BILLIONS of dollars has the catholic church paid out in sexual molestation settlements? Answer: over $4 Billion. Screw them and their rebuke!
Churches need to re-evaluate the value systems they claim to preach.POTUS VP President of a welfare democracy cannot take presidential decisions on the basis of their personal religious beliefs.Can d churches answer 'if abortion is wrong,how family planing is right?'
I remember that archaic saying when phone booths existed. ' here's twenty cents, call someone who gives a shit'.
Do they realize how many of the 'faithful' are using birth control and still going to communion?
Irrelevant.....the hierarchy is irrelevant.
This is why I hate religion! We don’t agree with your way of thinking, so you get no communion. Pedophiles, adultery and everything else is forgiven
Maybe, just MAYBE these bishops could make better use of their office by telling us WHY they buried hundreds of children in unmarked graves and then built playgrounds and schools over them? HYPOCRITES
Come on, Bishops. Don't stop there. Deny communion to Catholics that use birth control. rolls eyes
after all those sex scandals, how does the catholic church have any moral authority?
Great. They can be left behind like all of the other defunct organizations that still, somehow, exist.
