The USCCB: On Issues Of Substance

The USCCB is talking about issues of substance, namely who may receive the Holy Eucharist. Catholic moral teaching on sexual morality is also being discussed. They have also been talking about music in the liturgy.

There was some back and forth between Bishop Burke and Bishop Niederauer on the Chastity based group, Courage, which ministers to those with same-sex attractions and their loved ones. Bishop Burke wanted the USCCB to endorse Courage. Bishop Niederauer was against it.

I am pleased with Bishop Burke: Burke takes lead role at meeting

Here are some articles:

U.S. Catholic bishops tackle contraception, gays, communion

Bishops stress sexual issues and warn on Communion

Serious sin a bar to receiving Communion, bishops say in new document

Any thoughts?
