Who is Bishop Skylstad, and what should we know about him?
He is against witholding Communion to pro-deathers.
Some bishops have stated that they will deny Eucharist to Catholic politicians who have supported abortion legislation. Eucharist is God’s gift to us, God’s presence among us. It is a most precious part of our Catholic heritage. I strongly oppose using Eucharist as a weapon.
He has been in the headlines a lot lately.
So now the guy who bankrupted his own diocese will be leading the entire USCCB. Very appropriate.
