Dutch Bishop Refuses Communion to Homosexuals

What the article by BBC doesn't tell you is that the Bishop Antoon Hurkmans of Den Bosch is backing up the priest who refused these people communion. It is confirmed by kathnet.

Hun[BBC]dreds of Dutch activists have walked out of a Mass in protest at a Roman Catholic policy of denying communion to practising homosexuals.

On this occasion, the church, in 's-Hertogenbosch, had already decided not to serve communion, so the protesters left, shouting and singing.

The dispute began earlier this month when a priest in a nearby town refused communion to an openly gay man.
