As a woman of faith this just burns me up...

I am a lifelong devout baptist. I believe my faith and my church help me stay grounded and my relationship with God makes me strive to be a better person. So when I see things like this is just gets me seeing red. Political views aside Biden id a devout Catholic and I hate that backing a medical and science opinion may stop him from being able to fully practice a faith he has had for a lifetime. To me this just isn't right and even the Vatican has opposed the idea. I feel for anyone who will be effected by this if it sticks and is enforced.

I’m not religious but I agree with you that just isn’t right. Church and state are separate. He should be able to practice his faith regardless of what political movements he is involved in.

It’s about his personal beliefs, that it’s fine, not his political affiliations. And additionally, separation protects laws not religious things.

Sounds like a personal problem for Biden. Politics come with sacrifice. He can pick one.

Ya, basically. I don’t know too many devout religious people that would sacrifice religious beliefs so they can win votes. So whatever.

I guess they don't want to be hypocrites (something God hates more than anything) by saying it's ok for one but not all.

He must not be that devout if he doesn’t believe what Catholics believe.

That has nothing to do with how devout someone is - the majority of Catholics believe what he believes (Pew Research 2014) and the Pope disagrees with denying him communion. I mean, if the Pope doesn't question the sincerity of his faith, why should the Bishops or anyone else?

So when I read about it (Catholic who supports B, btw), it was going to be up to the specific dioceses in which he attends, and both bishops said they'd not refuse him.But yes, let's alienate more people from our religion. Right? Yikes. Idk what they are thinking.

He made the choice to become POTUS. If he is devout as he claims to be, I can almost guarantee he knew what would happen if he went against his faith. We all have choices in life. He made his.

True. But I didn't even know there was a religion group so I'd never have found it. I'm pretty sure this post isn't against the rules if this group, though, right?

1. This seems like a religious topic. As someone who had really really terrible experiences with Catholicism and Christianity I feel that YOU SHOULD POST IN THE RIGHT GROUP. There’s a rule about religion. For some of us, it’s important that it be respected. 2. How are you complaining? You don’t know what Catholicism is about if you’re against this. Let them bar him. The whole system is a fucking dumpster fire anyways. Let’s the Catholics crucify themselves over their petty squabbles. If he were “devout” he would already be baptized he’s fucking old as ever and has had ample time before becoming a goddamn president to do it.

Huh. Didn't see this earlier. I don't think you're horrible or great. I don't think about you until I came across this post again.🤷‍♀️ But yay you for hating Catholics, I guess.

The Church can do as it wishes. If a person is not following their views, they should be denied access to the cults treasure trove of cultures. Oh no🙈 a Catholic thinks I’m terrible 😂😂

That's kinda messed up, yeah... it's like they are forcing every religious person to have the same opinion... Classic Catholic Church as I understand it :/ I really hated this about religion, and when I started thinking even more for myself I left the church.

It’s not about what it symbolizes. It’s like copyright, that’s their thing and they get to chose.

Besides, what communion is meant to symbolize should be available to everyone, as I understand it.
