"BLACKWOOD, N.J. -- The incoming leader of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Camden said that he would not serve Holy Communion to Gov. James E. McGreevey, a divorced Catholic who supports abortion rights."

This is terrible.  Just pathetic.

If you are against the church, why should you be able to take part in its most sacred practice?

He is not 'against the church'.  He does not agree with every last thing the pope (or some other bishop or w/e they call them) says.

He is certainly not WITH the church. The pope has said abortion is wrong, and that cannot be questioned as the pope is infallible. He is AGAINST fundamental Catholic doctrine, and therefore should be excommunicated. He is a heretic.

If you excommunicate all pro-choice catholics you excommunicate a helluva lot of people...like RUDY GIULIANI (REPUBLICAN).

(Giuliani is also against a PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION BAN!  OFF WITH HIS HEAD!)

I am not for excommunicating Giuliani, but am I do support denying him communion

Why do you support excommunicating McGreevey, but you do not feel the same way towards Giuliani?  Their stance on abortion in exactly the same.

Go away and read the Bible...

I would imagine you're talking to aaron.

Now you guys see why I stay away from religion?  Look at the hatred it causes.

Being pro-choice is equally as bad as being pro-holocaust.

You lower the quality of your whole post with a last line as blatently disgusting as that one.

If one believes that abortion is murder then why should they not feel it is comparable to the holocast? In fact it would be much worse. 43 million compared to 6.

The people in the holocaust felt pain, and lots of it.  Most (not all, but most) aborted pregnancies do not.
