White House won't say if unborn child is human being at 15 weeks
Washington D.C., Jun 21, 2021 / 16:10 pm (CNA).
The White House on Monday would not comment specifically on President Joe Biden and reception of Communion, and would not answer if a 15-week-old unborn child is a human being.
When asked by a reporter at Monday’s press briefing if Biden believes that a 15 week-old unborn baby is a human being White House press secretary Jen Psaki would not directly answer the question.
“Are you asking me if the president supports a woman’s right to choose? He does,” Psaki said. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments this fall in a pivotal abortion case on Mississippi’s ban on most abortions after 15 weeks.

Psaki was also asked about Communion on Monday. A reporter asked her what President Biden’s “reaction” was to a proposed Eucharistic document of the U.S. bishops. Psaki said Biden’s faith was “personal” and would not comment on the document.
Although the bishops moved to begin drafting a teaching document on the Eucharist – which included a subsection on worthiness to receive Communion – certain media reports framed the vote as part of a process to directly rebuke Biden or deny him Communion.
“Well Joe Biden is a strong man of faith, and as he noted, just a couple of days ago, it’s personal,” Psaki said. “He goes to Church, as you know, nearly every weekend. He even went when we were on our overseas trip.”
“But it’s personal to him, he doesn’t see it [faith] through a political prism, and we’re not going to be able to comment otherwise on the inner workings of the Catholic Church,” she added.
Psaki had been asked to respond to the U.S. bishops’ move to begin drafting a teaching document on the Eucharist last week. The reporter referred to it as a document “to clarify who should receive Communion” and one that “is targeted at politicians, people who have a high public profile.”
The U.S. bishops’ doctrine committee, which proposed drafting the document, included a subsection on “Eucharistic consistency” in its proposed outline, and noted the “special call for those Catholics who are cultural, political, or parochial leaders to witness to the faith.”
Communion for pro-abortion Catholic politicians has been a topic of conversation among bishops since Biden’s election.
Canon 915 of the Church’s Code of Canon Law states that Catholics “obstinately persevering in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to holy communion.” Then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, in a 2004 memo on Communion, said that Catholic politicians who are “consistently campaigning and voting for permissive abortion and euthanasia laws” are considered to be formally cooperating in the grave sin of abortion, and are doing so in a “manifest,” or public, way.
In such cases, Ratzinger said, the pastor of the official must meet with them and admonish them, instructing them that they cannot receive Communion. If the politicians persist in their pro-abortion advocacy, the minister of Communion “must refuse to distribute it,” he said.
Biden supports taxpayer-funded abortion, has promised to codify Roe v. Wade, and has ordered foreign assistance to once again flow to pro-abortion groups abroad. His local ordinary in D.C., Cardinal Wilton Gregory of the Archdiocese of Washington, has said he would not deny Communion to pro-abortion Catholic politicians. Biden’s ordinary in the Diocese of Wilmington, Delaware – Bishop Francis Malooly – has previously said he would not deny Biden Communion.
When the reporter followed up on Monday, asking Psaki if “statements by the bishops” would “make the president reconsider his public support for policies that increase access to abortion,” Psaki repeated her answer that Biden’s faith “is personal.”
“It’s something that has helped guide him through some challenging moments in his life, and that’s how many Americans see their faith as well – not through a political prism,” she said. “So, I suspect he will continue to attend Church, as he has for many, many years.”
On Friday, Biden was asked about a “resolution” of the U.S. bishops to deny him and other pro-abortion politicians Communion – even though the bishops’ vote last week was to begin drafting a teaching document on the Eucharist, not on any national policy of denying Communion.
“That’s a private matter and I don’t think that is going to happen,” Biden said.

#1 “ONE” not triune: ……Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!
Jesus is only a son by vertue of the fact that the human flesh that the SINGULAR PERSON GOD occupied belonged to God personaly there was no other spirit in Jesus to lay claim to the male human flesh/son of marry/”SON OF MAN” …..erogo “son OF GOD” bleonging to God (as a possesion) not a second or different person!! As such Jesus is not the bastard son trinitarians or muslims would try to make him out to be
