5. I am going up for communion today...I will let you know if it burns

I am missing the march on Washington due to my bad back ..so I am taking my pre-communion son to mass to help get him ready for his big day....

Of course I'm laughing now. If you don't come back and post, we will now all know why. Watch out for lightning bolts from heaven too.

15. I am back...and all is well

the wafer tastes the same and no burning...I even saw a woman with a pro-choice pendant on during mass....I bet she was waiting to be refused...I smiled at her....

9. how about to politicians who support illegal wars?

how about that???

12. I was just about to ask the same question.

Are there any Catholics in the Bush Fraudministration? And if so, have their priests refused their communions? I believe the Pope DID condemn the invasion, so there is certainly grounds for refusing.

14. and politicians who support the death penalty

how about that?

17. Tom Ridge is Catholic.

There are more, but I can't remember which ones.

I think you/re missing the point here. It's not up to the priests to deny them communion. If the Pope declares it a mortal sin, the individual Catholic cannot receive communion and not be damned by God. It's up to the individual to decide if they are going to remain faithful to their religion of not.
