    POLL ALERT! Another on Bp. Tobin and pro-abortion Patrick Kennedy

    CATEGORY: Our Catholic Identity, POLLS — Fr. John Zuhlsdorf @ 11:31 pm

    USNews & World Report has a POLL on Bishop Tobin’s decision to ask pro-abortion Catholic Rep. Patrick Kennedy not to receive Holy Communion.

    You know what to do.


    Here is the question:

    Should America’s Roman Catholic bishops ask elected officials who support abortion rights to forego Holy Communion, as Rhode Island Rep. Patrick Kennedy’s bishop has?


    I voted YES using option A.

    Here are the results at the time of this writing:



    I voted in this poll and so far the white hats and sanity are leading.

    Here is the link.  Cut and paste it into your browsers address bar:

    12. Looking at the comments under the USN survey, there is a complaint (time 10:07:50) about YOU, Father Z, for posting this. You really are succeeding in what you do!

    13. Speaking of polls, this headline was on the page Father linked to: “Poll: More Americans Attribute Biblical Passage to Obama Than to Bible”
