Did Obama receive Holy Communion at Senator Kennedy's Funeral Mass?
August 31, 2009 | Irisshlass

I read on facebook a woman who watched Senator Kennedy's funeral mass, stated that President Obama received Holy Communion. Is this true? Did anyone watch the Mass?

I have no knowledge of that day’s events, but I cannot imagine a priest giving holy communion to a non-Catholic.

What does it mean if he did? He’d cut open a living human being and eat the still beating heart if he thought it would help him curry favor with a group that would keep him in power.

Do not use potty language - or references to potty language - on the Religion Forum.

I happen to turn on near that part and noticed that the camera panned away (showed choir, etc) during Communion - you could not see who did or did not receive.

She said it appeared to her that Obama did receive but suddenly the cameras (all stations) aimed up at the glass window. She also said it looked like he got up from the pew and was taking something from the Priest.
