I wish there was a loving & accepting Catholic Church in every community, such as the Paulist Center. I've known Catholics who have been refused Communion because they were divorced. We all know of certain people who were granted Church anulments because of some supposed impediment at the time of their marriage. They're up there at the communion rail. I've often wondered how much do those anulments cost?   

I think the Vatican just wants 4 more years of the Bush Baby. It doesn't have to issue a Papal Bull to turn a significant number of voters away from Kerry. They are turning already.
