Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, the archbishop of Washington, will meet with Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry today.I pray that the Archbishop will have some stern advice for this "Catholic" politician (and others in Washington, as well, who continue to vote for the murder of the unborn).
The Archbishop is expected to question Kerry about his support for abortion rights and stem cell research, which contradict church teachings.
McCarrick is the head of a bishops' task force that's studying how to handle politicians who defy church doctrine. Some bishops have suggested denying communion to them, but McCarrick has said he'd feel "uncomfortable" doing that.
Kerry has said that millions of Catholics share his views and he believes the church should not govern his public stances.
This site is dedicated to promoting and defending the Catholic Faith, in union with Christ and His Church and in union with the authentic Holy Father, the faithful successor of St. Peter.
