Seminar examines merits of denying Communion to dissident politicians

Father Richard John Neuhaus said Catholic politicians who persist in supporting legalized abortion should be denied Communion. Monika K. Hellwig said that tactic would contribute to the misperception that abortion is a "Catholic issue" when it should be an issue with all candidates.

This would have been an interesting seminar, especially if Monica Hellwig was sharing the podium with Fr. Neuhaus.
