Catholic leaders are calling for New York Gov. Andrew Coumo to be excommunicated from the Church after he signed a new bill legalizing abortion up until the point of birth.
Last week, Cuomo signed the Reproductive Health Act, allowing non-doctors to perform abortions up to the moment of birth if the health of the mother is deemed to be at risk or the baby is not viable.

Cuomo celebrated the signing of the bill by ordering One World Trade Center to be lit up pink, a move many found to be in poor taste.
Foxnews.com reports: “It goes way beyond Roe v. Wade in so many ways, so I don’t see it as something to celebrate,” Albany Bishop Edward Scharfenberger told “Fox & Friends” Saturday. “The kind of procedures that are now available in New York state, we wouldn’t even do to a dog or a cat…It’s torture.”
New York state bishops have been asked to consider ex-communication, which Scharfenberger says is a “last resort” that may come about if Cuomo continues to distance himself from the church.
Scharfenberger said Cuomo, who has touted his Roman Catholic faith and the fact that he was a former altar boy in his State of the State address earlier this month, should not be receiving communion because of his flagrant celebration of the pro-abortion bill, a “very radical separation from the Catholic communion” and “light years away” from Pope Francis on abortion.
Tennesee Bishop Rick Stika of Knoxville tweeted on Thursday that if it were up to him, he’d excommunicate Cuomo.

“This vote is so hideous and vile that it warrants the act,” Stika wrote.
Other Catholics, including bishops, agreed on social media, but it is unlikely to happen.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the Archbishop of New York, told “Fox & Friends” Monday morning it would just be “ammunition” for pro-abortion opponents who would dismiss the issue as a Catholic one and not a human rights issue. He said he gets “wheelbarrows” full of letters a day asking about it.
“He’s not going to be moved by this, so what’s the use?” Dolan remarked.
The New York archbishop did note that excommunication for anyone who performed abortions or supported the practice was the norm until the last 50 years or so when the church focused more on mercy.
Cuomo’s father, the late three-term governor Mario Cuomo, was threatened with excommunication for his views on abortion.

Yes, Excommunicated and then give him the hard goodbye.
Catholic’s are NOT Christian!!! The black nobility of Europe has the authority to veto a pope. The knights Templar’s were the militia of the catholic church……red flag, Christians don’t have military groups. The knights Templars eventually evolved into what we today call freemasonry, both groups focus is on studying the mystery religions of Babylon which were created by Lucifer. The black pope, the Jesuit general, also will dispose of the pope if he goes against the illuminati plans. A scary moment in history was when you jewish Satanists (sons of Jalpheth Khazar jews) intermingled with the Roman satanists (sons of Esau mixed with the tribe of Dan) and Constantine V married the Khazar princess named Tzitzak. There son was known as Leo the Khazar. This put the Harlot Catholic church and Beast religion of the jews on the same team, and they have united against us to bring in their world government and antichrist bloodline
Uncle Timmy, the Knight of Malta jesuit, must have got his talking points from his ‘buds’ on “The Ninth Circle”.

If they don’t excommunicate him for this, then the Pope, the church and their catechism means absolutely nothing.
Jesus weeps!
