<html><head></head><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>I'm not sure of the politics of the catholic church. But I don't recall Christ ever sending anyone away. I guess this is one of the reason i'm not Catholic. Communion to me is a personal issue and not one I get to choose who gets to take communion and who doesn't. I'm sure there were many others in the congregation that day who were sinners, One of them being the priest himself. although there is no question that homosexuality is a sin, it's not the ultimate unforgivable sin. It is one of many sins that are mentioned in the bible. Each time this comes up, i think of the scene of the woman and the pharacies. He who is without sin should cast the first stone.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Personally I think this is one of the cases that C.S. Lewis was talking about when he stated that satan is never closer than on the steps of the alter. We have a commission to spread the word to all the nations. When we close a door on someone, we close the door. Although God can over come any obstacle we put in front of us, it's not up to us to decide.<br>
