The bishops of Atlanta, Charleston, and Charlotte deny Communion to pro-abort politicians.
Get the story.

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

WOO HOO!
The gauntlet is cast. Who’ll be next to sign on?
Bravo.
Does a list exist of the bishops who will deny communion to pro-abort polticians? I know of Burke, Bruskewitz and Vasa and now Donoghue, Baker and Jugis. Did I miss anyone else?
