Does anyone know if he received communion at the big shindig at St. Peters, when Dolan, Bloomy, and all the bigshots were there?

apparently cohabitating with a woman gets you deeper in Dutch with the Catholic Church than a career pushing public policies which results in....oh, I dunno....tens of thousands of abortions?

Andy & Sandy wouldn’t dare show up at St Pat’s in NYC. Archbishop Dolan would refuse them communion.
Saint Patrick’s Day is coming up March 17.

Since he was earlier married to a Kennedy, is that marriage officially annulled, or are they divorced? I remember a time when being divorced caused the Church to deny the sacraments. But this ain’t the Catholic Church I knew, tho it is getting closer in many respects to ‘that old time religion.’ What they operated the past 40 years or so was horrible, imo.

I’m a Protestant, not a RC, so I don’t know all the technicalities.
I am from NY and know that Andrew was married to Kerry Kennedy, daughter of RFK. they had a very messy divorce. Sandra Lee is also RC & divorced, but no children.
I think that Cuomo’s open support of Abortion is what makes him anathema to Archbishop Dolan of NY, who is closely associated with Pope Benedict XVI & shares his views.

Andrew Cuomo, who supports abortion, gay marriage, and lives with his girlfriend,

Reading for comprehension is a good thing.

The media seems to be stressing that Cuomo is living with his girlfriend, but I wish they would stress just as much that it is also Cuomo’s pro-abortion and pro-gay so-called “marriage” stands, as well, and all of these should be reasons to deny him Communion, according to the Catholic teaching.

Cuomo should continue to attend Church, but he should refrain from receiving Communion, until he realizes that abortion, gay “marriage,” and living with his girl friend are all extremely wrong.

If he doesn’t refrain on his own, he should be denied Communion. This is not political; it is the Church’s teachings.

You sure? Who was presiding? I mean, the archbishop was there. If Cuomo received communion there, Dolan’s looking rather feeble.

It was within days of his winning the governorship, he had his gf and daughters with him. The Church hierarchy was there. Not sure who exactly it was now as I read it back in November of 2010.

This looks just like the pic that was out there at the time........notice the red hat?

    Peters criticized Albany Bishop Howard Hubbard for committing a “failure in pastoral care by offering Communion to Cuomo and Lee during a Jan. 2 mass Cuomo attended with Lee, his three daughters and Lt. Gov. Robert Duffy.

Looks like it was Hubbard in the pic. He is good buddies with my own Bishop Clark.
