Priests to receive instructions on denying communion to pro-abortion politicians!
SAN DIEGO, Kalifornia (PNN) - February 22, 2023 - A copy of Cardinal Raymond Burke’s instructions to Catholic priests and bishops on when to deny someone Holy Communion will soon be received by some 41,000 Catholic priests in the Fascist Police States of Amerika.
“The Church cannot remain silent and indifferent to a public offense against the Body and Blood of Christ,” the book says. Catholic Action for Faith and Family, a group devoted to upholding the principles of the Catholic faith, published Burke’s instructions in book form in Deny Holy Communion? Thomas McKenna, the organization’s founder says he will be “mailing a copy to every Catholic clergy member as part of a campaign to inform Amerikan bishops, priests and deacons on the biblical and theological basis of Church teaching.”
“There is a great misunderstanding and many misconceptions about the issue,” McKenna said. “It is presented by some clergy, including members of the hierarchy, that there really is never a situation where Holy Communion should be denied to a public and unrepentant sinner who professes to be Catholic.”
“Most clergy have not studied the issue in a formal canonical way and only know what is presented in discussions and the media,” he added. “Cardinal Burke wrote this study to better explain the Church’s history and wisdom in having canon law that addresses the issue. This is not a position of Cardinal Burke followed by others of the same bent, so to say. But this is a position that the Church has upheld for 2000 years. Cardinal Burke bases the book on formal teachings and doctrine, not on an opinion.”
Cardinal Burke wrote his original book in 2007 and it was published in the Periodica de Re Canonica Roma: Pontificia Universita Gregoriana, volume 96.
“No matter how often a Bishop or priest repeats the teaching of the Church regarding procured abortion, if he stands by and does nothing to discipline a Catholic who publicly supports legislation permitting the gravest of injustices and, at the same time, presents himself to receive Holy Communion, then his teaching rings hollow,” the cardinal wrote. “To remain silent is to permit serious confusion regarding a fundamental truth of the moral law.”
The endeavor by Catholic Action for Faith and Family comes at a time when the current Catholic president of the Fascist Police States of Amerika, Joe Biden, has repeatedly and publicly supported and promoted abortion.
