this is lame. catholic law or not its all the same god. if he wants to take communion thats his choice...
and i dont even like the bugger
Actually, it isn't his choice.
Within a Catholic church, Their rules apply and should be respected like one should when visiting a religious culture or their churches. If you don't respect other's beliefs, then why should anybody respect your's?
As it goes, only Roman Catholics are allowed to accept communion. Harper is Protestant last I checked.
It would been more respectful if he just stayed seated like what everybody else does. Even some Roman Catholics don't go up if they don't want to.
I know... all trivial crap and really doesn't matter in the run of our days, but I figured I'd comment regardless.
And no, while I grew up RC, I am no longer a follower of any of the main relgions.
They're all full of sillyness.
