Sadly he isn't the first. There was a Jesuit congressman some time ago who voted for abortion.

Why should he worry about it? It's not like he'll be denied Communion or anything....

Of course I shouldn't say that, since he's not in the US and I don't know for sure what the Canadian bishops have said...

[quote name='Raphael' date='Jun 25 2004, 03:57 PM'] Ummm...doesn't Canon Law say that clergy can't run for civil offices? [/quote]
My guess is that his response might be: "Canon Law, shmanon law..."

I feel bad for the Jesuits, not all of them are like this. Unfortunately, the few within the Jesuits, make the entire Order look bad.
