St. Joseph's in Largo (Landover, wherever - right on Route 202 by the Beltway).
I know a lot of folks over there. Lots of nice people. They have a great Knights of Columbus Council. But this guy Brown should be disciplined.

Visited there a couple of times myself and fully agree with your assessment.
But this guy Brown should be disciplined.
You know if the pastor has talked to him? Has anybody, charitably, talked to the pastor or shown the pastor Abp Burke's writing on The Discipline Regarding the Denial of Holy Communion to Those Obstinately Persevering in Manifest Grave Sin for his prayerful consideration?
Has anybody complained on how the laity are scandalized by seeing this individual receive the Blessed Sacrament on a weekly basis while fiercely advocating for the genocide of infants while still in the womb? (Or does he not actually show up for Mass, except if the cameras are around)
Just curious. Because most politicians don't generally brag about their support for infant dismemberment. Most of them coach their support in euphemisms, such as "support for comprehensive women's health" or some such.
I'm asking not to start an argument, but if I'm assured that what can be done locally has been done locally (per the guidance of the documents cited above), then I am bullheaded enough to ask His Excellency when I see him. It's not that I see His Excellency on a regular basis, but I do see him in person two or three times a year. I've asked uncomfortable questions before and won't hesitate to do so again. But I would hate to do so and then get egg on my face.
