New York Gov Andrew Cuomo gets called out by Vatican for living in Sin with girlfriend Sandra Lee
Posted by ai at 9:00 PMWell, I’m glad somebody brought up an issue I wrote about nearly a month ago.
It’s still called fornication which makes Andrew Cuomo and Sandra Lee fornicators in the eyes of the church.

As such, Cuomo ought not participate in Holy Communion, a very serious sacrament, unless his heart is right with God.
There’s no way in the world he can claim that while living with a woman he’s not married to.
He’s making a mockery of the sacrament!
You’d think a governor of a state would set a better example for others. But, then again Prince Cuomo is one of the biggest and most shameless phonies in New York State.
The Daily Mail reports that a Vatican adviser has condemned New York Governor Andrew Cuomo as 'gravely sacrilegious' for receiving Holy Communion - because he is not married to his live-in girlfriend, Food Network star Sandra Lee.
Edward Peters, a consultant for the Vatican's high court, said Mr Cuomo should not take the sacrament of Communion while he is engaged in what he called 'public concubinage' with Ms Lee.
His scathing attack comes after an interview with television cook Ms Lee was released in which she frankly discusses her harrowing childhood and present-day success - and says she is happy not being married for now.
She and Mr Cuomo have been together for five years and share a home with his teenage daughters from his first marriage. In the interview with Vogue, Ms Lee, the host of Semi-Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee, describes how she reorganised her company to make life easier for her partner.
But Mr Peters, who is also a conservative Catholic blogger, condemned their living arrangements. He particularly criticized the governor for receiving Communion at Albany's Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception on January 1, the day after his inauguration.
The adviser described it as a 'gravely sacrilegious' act and said Bishop Howard Hubbard committed a 'failure in pastoral care' by praising Mr Cuomo at the Mass, which he attended with Ms Lee and his daughters.
Mr Peters told CNSNews the governor should be denied Communion if he tries to take the sacrament again 'as long as he persists in such conduct'. He was referring both to Mr Cuomo's living arrangements and his views on abortion and gay marriage, which he supports.
Mr Cuomo today said: 'My religion is a private matter, and that is not something I discuss in the political arena.'

Andrew Cuomo can say it’s a private matter all he wants. But, he’s flaunting his beliefs that are in direct conflict with the teachings of his church. He should either marry the woman to get right with God or leave the church entirely.
