2. Catholics Are More Supportive of Church/State Separation
Edited on Fri Sep-24-04 04:22 PM by Xipe Totec
Than the general population, and more opposed to having Catholic doctrine used for political purposes. To the question:

"Do you think it is appropriate for Catholic bishops to refuse to give communion to elected officials who publicly disagree with the Church's position on issues like abortion, or is that not appropriate?"

72% of the population said not appropriate, but a greater 78% of Catholics said not appropriate.

The Bushistas are barking up the wrong tree again.
