Which sacraments?
By Phil Lawler ( bio - articles - email ) | Apr 29, 2004
MSNBC is conducting a poll on whether pro-abortion Catholic politicians should be denied the Eucharist.
But the question is poorly worded; it asks whether these pols should be denied "the sacraments." Many of us would agree that they should be allowed to go to Confession.
We'll conduct our own poll of our subscribers on the CWN site this weekend, asking the right question.
