...married to another believing and practicing Catholic.

A believing and practicing Catholic who preaches the gospel of prenuptial agreements.

The need is to pray for the potential leaders, as opposed to simple condemnation. Can John Kerry return to faithful Catholicism?

Kerry can run across the street and join Bill Clinton's old church. They don't care what you believe or practice.

>AS KERRY EMERGES, SO DOES CONCERN THAT AS PRESIDENT HE MAY BE DENIED COMMUNION

If Kerry does not become president then this is not a problem. Solution: Make sure Kerry loses the election.

Dear cpforlife.org,

"Can John Kerry return to faithful Catholicism?"

Sure, it's possible.

Will he?

I'm not holding my breath.

My guess is that Kerry would respond by creating the Church of England America.

And maybe taking a few more wives and lopping off their heads...

he presents himself both as a staunchly pro-choice politician and as a practicing Catholic

Ok, John it's time to pick, one you can only have one..

I am a believing and practicing Catholic, married to another believing and practicing Catholic

Sorry, his beliefs are not consistent with the church, he needs more practice. Maybe he can get some pointers from his buddy Ted.

I think it should read "I am a non believing but still practicing Catholic, as long as I can get away with it"

I doubt very much if Kerry will care whether he is denied communion. He doesn't seem like a very religious man, anyway. The man has no deep convictions of any kind, much like Clinton, the only thing that he believes in is himself.

Supreme Court --- Catholics need not apply

It is about time that my church is publicly going after abort-supporting Catholic politicians.

Why would I be concerned about that? Sounds like a great idea to me!

But only a week ago, newly-installed Boston Archbishop Sean O'Malley struck out against pro-choicers like Kerry, telling a Catholic website called LifeSiteNews.com, "These politicians should know that if they're not voting correctly on these life issues that they shouldn't dare come to Communion."

Come on Bishop, let's formalize this. Inaction scandalizes the Church.

His votes for abortion weren't really votes for abortion. They were votes for the "threat" of abortion.

Rivals assail remarks on abortion, South
By Patrick Healy, Globe Staff, 1/30/2004

GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Senator John F. Kerry, facing the increased attention that comes with front-runner status, came under multiple attacks yesterday from rival Democrats over his recent remarks on abortion and winning Southern votes, while top Republicans assailed him as soft on national security.

Kerry struck back immediately with retorts that he and his advisers had crafted beforehand, a sign of his campaign's zeal for avoiding the political damage suffered by other Democrats who did not respond swiftly to attacks, including Howard Dean, who was weighed down by attacks from Kerry and other rivals when he was well ahead in early polls.

Advisers to one Democratic candidate circulated a newspaper article in Missouri -- which holds a key primary Tuesday that Kerry has targeted for victory -- that said Kerry personally opposed abortion "as an article of faith" because he is required to do so as a Catholic. Kerry added that a lawmaker should not "legislate his personal beliefs," according to a transcript of the interview with Missouri reporters, but that was not included in the published story.

Kerry was raised a Catholic, served as an altar boy, and once considered becoming a priest. Nevertheless, he said yesterday, "Whatever my personal beliefs are, they have no place here," and repeatedly stressed his view that the constitutional separation of church and state forbids lawmakers from regulating abortion based on their religious beliefs.

On a day when the seven Democratic candidates gathered here for a forum, rival John Edwards sought to sow doubt in Southern Democrats' minds about a key campaign theme of Kerry's -- that he is the most "electable" of the Democrats challenging President Bush. Edwards told reporters that the Massachusetts senator would be a "risk" as the party nominee because his mix of liberal and centrist views would not appeal to Southern voters.

"We've never elected a Democrat in the United States without winning at least five Southern states," Edwards said. "If Democrats across the country want to take a risk that for the first time in American history that's a possibility, then they can do that."

Voters in both Iowa and New Hampshire expressed similar concerns in the weeks before Kerry's recent victories in those states. He reassured them -- in comments that Edwards and others are now seizing upon -- by saying that he would compete in the South but didn't necessarily have to do well there during the general election. Instead, he said, he would seek to win all of the states that Al Gore carried in 2000, plus New Hampshire, Ohio, or West Virginia.

Yesterday, Kerry said his remark was not tantamount to writing off the South, but rather that it was "merely a comment on mathematical counting."

"It is not possible for me in my strategy to not campaign in the South and not win states in the South, and I intend to," Kerry said during a stop at Midlands Technical College in Columbia, S.C., where he picked up a key endorsement from the state's senior black congressman, James E. Clyburn.

"I've been to Alabama, to Tennessee, to Arkansas, to Florida, to Georgia, obviously to South Carolina," Kerry added. "I think it is time that we create a new coalition in America. In my race for the presidency, I intend to prove that we are indeed `one America,' " a phrase that Edwards has invoked for months.

Kerry also fended off a new line of attack from Republican National Committee chairman Ed Gillespie, who said yesterday that the four-term senator had consistently opposed greater defense spending and laws that Gillespie said enhanced US national security.

While Kerry plans to use his Vietnam War service record and his foreign policy expertise as a bulwark to Republican attacks on his national security credentials, Gillespie drew a distinction between Kerry's experience as a soldier and his Senate record.

"John Kerry's record of service in our military is honorable. But his long record in the Senate is one of advocating policies that would weaken our national security," Gillespie said at the RNC's winter meeting in Washington yesterday.

Kerry said he welcomed a debate pitting his views on defense and security against Bush's, and called Gillespie's remarks "the greatest form of flattery."

"I have voted for the largest defense budgets in the history of our country. I have voted for almost all weapon systems that we have today with few exceptions. Unfortunately, these are people who've never met a system they didn't like. I have," Kerry said.

Before last night's forum with his rivals, Kerry earned bragging rights in South Carolina as he won support from Clyburn, who had previously endorsed Representative Richard A. Gephardt.

Kerry, who toured the technical college's manufacturing learning lab with Clyburn before announcing the endorsement, said that the two men had become friends during some of Kerry's visits to the state, where he has not campaigned since Sept. 12.

"I've had some good times with him, learned how to talk over the loud noise in a garage in a fish fry, and dance a bit late at night," Kerry said.

"I wouldn't call that dancing," Clyburn interjected.

"I thought for a white guy I showed some rhythm," Kerry replied. "I guess I'll have to take a few more lessons. I'm ready for it, folks, come on at it. Bring it on!"
