And you thought Mitt Romney was the only candidate whose religion raised issues for voters? Apparently the choice of Sen. Joe Biden, Catholic communicant and abortion supporter, as the Democratic VP candidate is raising a different set of issues for Catholic voters that may prompt continued debate right up until election day. Here's the lead paragraph of a story from the Catholic News Agency:
The selection of Sen. Joseph Biden as Barack Obama’s running mate is drawing a chorus of disapproval from Catholic intellectual and pro-life leaders because of Biden’s longstanding support for abortion. Most recently, Archbishop Charles Chaput of Denver has said that Biden should refrain from Communion.
