Sheesh! Just because you attend Mass regularly and receive Holy Communion does not make you a member of the Church in good standing.
Gee, I wonder if Kerry's going to go to Mass on November 2, All Souls Day. It's a holy day of obligation for Catholics. If he doesn't go, he's committed a mortal sin and not a "member in good standing." Do ya think he can find time on Election Day to go? It would be intersting to see just how devout he really is.
He'd go to church early on election day, making sure he is followed by a camera. There are still people that are going out to vote and he will make sure it is known he took time out, even on election day, to attend mass. Such a devout man.
