Apostate Catholics
(Please, Mrs. Pelosi, Go Haunt Someone Else's Church)
If anyone had doubts about the standing in the Church of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and other renegade Catholics, a canon lawyer has again put them to rest.
Last week, Ed Peters, who writes a blog titled “In Light Of The Law,” restated an opinion he offered on Pelosi two years ago: She is not to present herself for Holy Communion. Peters offered his insight in light of the San Francisco’s radical leftist’s voluble support for the Obama Administration’s highly controversial mandate that Catholic institutions must provide insurance that covers contraception, sterilization, and abortifacient drugs with no copays. Obama supposedly “bent” on the matter on Friday, as The Boston Glove described his tricky maneuver to accomplish what he intended.
Anyway, Peters’ opinion applies to more people than Pelosi. It applies to every Catholic in the U.S. Congress who votes as Pelosi does, as well as every Catholic politician in the United States who promulgates Pelosian public policies.
In Congress alone, the list of those politicians is long, given that nearly 30 percent of congressmen and senators are Catholics. But let’s focus on Madame Pelosi.
