Cardinal Mahony: Williamson "never" welcome in Catholic Church

Huh? Cardinal Mahony decides who can become Catholic and who cannot?

As reported by Rorate Caeli,

Mahony and two officials of the American Jewish Committee signed a commentary that stated, "Holocaust deniers like Williamson will find no sympathetic ear or place of refuge in the Catholic Church, of which he is not — and may never become — a member.”

Again, huh?

Rorate Caeli wants to know: will this also apply to pro-abort politicians who claim to be Catholic?
