One Catholic priest is asking his parishioners not to take communion if they voted for Barack Obama for President.
Reverend Jay Scott Newman says the president-elect's pro-abortion stand is against the beliefs of the Catholic church and anyone who voted for him should not take the sacrament.
Reverend Newman says church law does not allow him to refuse communion to a parishioner but he believes Obama supporters should do penance because of their vote.

Political correctness teaches us to be tolerant of sin. Being politically correct most of the time is biblically incorrect. The bible teaches us to be forgiving of the sinner. None of us is without sin but nothing can separate us from the love of God. I didn't vote for Obama but its time to quit complaining because we have a big job in restoring our economy. Pres. Obama needs all our prayers.

Anonymous: You are VERY wrong. I voted for President-Elect Obama but I am strongly against abortion. I believe that it should be a person's choice and not the right of the government to dictate their beliefs. Just as God has given us a choice to ask for his forgiveness or not. JJ: We are ALL illegal alliens. The fact is that the only group of people that are not are the native Americans.
