The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) voted overwhelmingly to draft a formal document on the meaning of the Eucharist after a contentious debate on whether President Biden and other politicians who support abortion policies are worthy of receiving Communion at Mass.

Either you stand with murder or you don't.
The Papacy sides with God and God is a murderer of untold amounts of humans, all over an apple, the great flood to destroy what he created and the assault on Egypt showed no mercy for the innocent.
God kills 100% of the human beings he creates and all the animals too.
Your argument is stupid.
Then his creation will kill also.

Panta rhei - everything flows. Nothing is able to be stable in this world here. An astonishing thing in this context is for example the eldest culture of the world, which existed continously and is still alive: the Jewish culture. And no one is able to say the Jews were many people nor able to say they had not many enemies. If I think about now again ... Is it possible this has something to do with the centre "god" and perhaps also with his son, who orbits around the human beings ? ...
The history of the Papacy is one of war and desolation they learned well from the God they worship.
The history of the Holy Church was it for example to rebear and bear most important elements of two big civilisations of the world: the West and the East.
Not really since the schism which rend the Eastern Orthodox church and the Roman Western church
And which one of them is in your view to the world now "the Holy Church" which I spoke about here?
Nothing on earth is holy
Hmm ... I see many holy things every day and every moment when I think about not to forget to take a look.
in the sense it is representative or has any connections to God. There is no God and never has been.
No wonder that youn don't see no wonder all around you. For me everything is a wonder - for you nothing seems to be a wonder. Question: Are you rich?
Religion gives them that name to demand respect from the punters.
... The word "punter" is diffcult to translate for me ... I have here a very strange list of possible meanings which exclude each other in my own language. ... Is "consumer" in the near of this what you thought when you used this word?
Nothing is blessed by any God. Like holy warer.
Holy war? Holy ware? ...?
It's normal water like every other drop on earth.
Ah holy water. Now I got it. Perhaps you are right - perhaps every drop of water is holy. That's what we somehow express with every baptism.
Some priest waving his hand and mumbling words doesn't change it.
Looks to me you think all Catholics are a little simple minded only because we love clear and simple signs and we use all our senses to be in god ... or on the way ... or both ...
What you see all around is evolution and absolutely nothing else.
What a nonsense. All natural laws for example started in the very first moment of the universe. They have nothing to do with "evolution". A circle was a circle since ever. An "evolution of cars" for example never existed and never will exist. Cars are made because of intuitions and knowlegde, because of ideas and plans. They do not evolve - we make this machines. In general is the word "evolution" outside of real sientific knowledge about biology often nothing else than only an empty phrase.
Bad intuition and I have to say to you I have for a laymen a relativelly good knowledge about evolution and about evolutionarily epistemology.
but attempt to link it to religion because religion has no relevance to today's world.
Religion (=rebound in god) and spirituality was since Göbekli Tepe was made always important.
Science and physics has blown you dopes away.
Let me say it this way. I'm sure my knowledge about natural science is capable under pressure while believers in science often say a lot of bullshit - not only about religion but also about science.
I can't disagree with you being simple.
What a pitty. I love it to be simple
Only simpletons would believe in immaculate conception and virgin births.
A problem of your language. In the German language "virgin" is just simple a "Jungfrau" = "junge Frau" = "young woman" what is very similiar to the original. You sexify in your language much too many things. And "immaculate" means in this context just simple that Mary had been without sin. She had to be without sin otherwise she not had been able to give god her own absolutelly free answer that she liked to be the mother of his son.
And "no"!!! You don't have any right to call me an idiot because you do not like to believe this.
Of course there's those resurrections and talking snakes. There always a good example if idiots.
I always speak with animals. No idea why some other people don't do so. This makes life much more easy and much more nice.
You have never heard seen or interacted with any God and you know it.
Ahem ... yes ... and no. And I don't know it. I'm an agnostics.
You do not have unique access to anything that I don't.
We are not an esoteric religion. But I will give you now a text which was important for me during the last week. It is old and in German so you will have difficulties "to access" - nevertheless you could do so, what needs some time to do so. That's all. The text is from the teacher of the Holy Catholic Church Hildegard von Bingen (*1098 +1179). She wrote it to bishop Gottfried. The part which impressed me is this here:
Das heitere Nachtlicht sagt: Das Gesetz bewirkt Leben, die Finsternis Spaltungen und die Nachtzeit Traurigkeit. Der Mensch, der nach dem Besitz des Lebens verlangt, muß frei sein von Spaltungen. Inwiefern? So nämlich, daß er - gleichsam als existiere Gott nicht - zu Ihm nicht aufseufzt, sich nicht nach ihm ausstreckt und nicht spricht: "Du hast mich gemacht." Wer dennoch so handelt, sucht zuweilen einen Kreis, das Glück der Welt. Und wer wird es ihm geben? Niemand, wenn nicht der Zeitenlauf sich einmal glückhaft erhebt - denn Gott hat den Menschen erschaffen -, ein andermal in Nichts zergeht - weil man an Gott zweifelt.
Hildegard von Bingen
You will not be going to eternity because you believe you will.
And I will not not be going to eternity because you believe I will not do so.
Faith does not equate to fact.
?
You are going nowhere so cut the crap that you hypocritical liars have an advantage over me.
Your problem is that you are not able to see your own belief. This reduces you. And what is outisde of this reductions you are not able to sense.
Don't try and be clever because you don't have the smarts.
We have a sweet which is called "smarties". Also not bad.
You're mealy mouthed religious gossip doesn't wash with me.
Mealy mouthed?
gossip?
Remembers me a to a song. It will come in the end.
Try it on someone else or a small child who is vulnerable to the religious dictatorship with which you want to destroy their lives.
Strange - very very strange. I fear you have a bigger problem than I thought first.
You have no right to do it children and should be charged by police for doing it.
I guess you heard that freedom of religion is a human right.
Keep going if you want. I love this.
Hmmm ... hmm ... do you have a problem with drugs?
