Video: “Joe, You’re a Disgrace To The Catholic Faith!” Bystanders Shouted As Biden Leaves Delaware Church

A handful of protestors heckled Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden outside his Delaware church on Sunday — telling the former veep he was a “disgrace” to the Catholic faith, photos and video shows.

Three people were spotted outside St. Joseph on the Brandywine in Greenville holding signs decrying Biden’s position on abortion, in a photo posted on Twitter by Bloomberg News politics reporter Jennifer Epstein.

“Joe no devout Catholic supports abortion,” one of the signs read.

As Biden entered the church, according to Epstein, the protesters told him to “repent for your soul” and “repent for Beau’s soul,” referring to the ex-vice president’s eldest son, Beau Biden, who died in 2015 at 46 after a battle with cancer.

Beau is buried in the church cemetery, as are Biden’s former wife Neilia and daughter Naomi, who were killed in a car crash in 1972.

People also waited for Biden to exit the back of the church to let him know how they felt about him.

“Joe, you’re a disgrace to the Catholic faith!” bystanders shouted as Biden left church.

Last year a South Carolina priest denied Holy Communion to Joe Biden because “any public figure who advocates for abortion places himself or herself outside of Church teaching.”

“Holy Communion signifies we are one with God, each other and the Church. Our actions should reflect that,” Father Robert Morey said in an email to the Florence Morning News last year. He said that “as a priest, it is my responsibility to minister to those souls entrusted to my care, and I must do so even in the most difficult situations. I will keep Mr. Biden in my prayers.

Biden has said he supports Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision protecting a woman’s right to an abortion.

If elected, he says he would work to codify the ruling into law and try to stop states that violate provisions of the case.
