The main reason many states that allow for the killing of the unborn do not allow the mothers to see the ultrasound of their baby within is because they see that it's a human life they would be ending and they often don't go through with the murder. I'm using blunt words to describe what liberals call "terminating a pregnancy." That used to be the term doctors applied for the birth of the child, not the killing of one. So forgive me for being unabashedly blunt, but I'm telling it like it is because I hope if even one baby is saved by the truth, then my blogging is worth the effort.
The Cardinal of Chicago Blase Cupich [as a kid they must've teased him with the sobriquet "Jock Itch"] will now allow state politicians, who assisted in passing a law that allows women the legal right to kill their unborn child, to receive Holy Communion, aka the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
Imagine what Jesus is thinking. It's kind of like allowing Muslims who believe in jihad by the sword to slaughter nonbelievers. Really, what's the actual difference?
Speaking with Catholic News Agency, the Chicago-style Cardinal said that barring pro-abortion Catholic politicians from receiving Holy Communion would be "counterproductive."

Counterproductive? What would be produced by allowing them to receive Holy Communion other than more dead babies? Perhaps if the Church refused them Holy Communion it would make a difference to them. In fact, since they're okay with killing the unborn, what really makes them Catholic or Christian, for that matter, other than their claim of being so?
Cupich told CNA, "I think it would be counterproductive to impose sanctions, simply because they don’t change anybody’s minds, but it also takes away from the fact that an elected official has to deal with the judgment seat of God, not just the judgment seat of a bishop. I think that’s much more powerful. I have always approached the issue saying that the bishop’s primary responsibility is to teach, and I will continue to do that."

The purpose of not allowing Catholics to receive Holy Communion isn't to change their minds. The purpose is to prevent someone from receiving Holy Communion whose soul is unclean, in the eyes of the Church. But even so, it's probable that it would change at least one mind, and that's a start.
According to Catholic Canon Law 915, people who publicly express grave sin are not to be admitted to Holy Communion. The Catholic Church has always taught abortion to be intrinsically evil and that people who either procure or support the practice are in grave error that can only be reconciled through the sacrament of Confession.

So Cardinal Cupich is one hell of a Cardinal. Maybe a better sobriquet now would be Cardinal Culpable.
Some of my best friends were almost aborted.
