He has been removed from office automatically by virtue of his formal defection from the Catholic Church, but this does not affect his ordination as a priest. Of course (and here's the danger where his former parishioners are concerned) any Catholic who receives communion at a Mass he knows to be illicit commits mortal sin. (I think I am correct about this; please correct me if I'm wrong). I pray that Father Cutie will see the error of his ways and return to the Catholic Church. In this age of priest shortage, we cannot afford to lose priests, even bad ones.Chants a Lothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02518418713994381645noreply@blogger.com
