As for Mr Kennedy, I haven"t heard, but if he holds similar views,then he too should be held to the same standards. It troubles me that someone identifies themselves as Roman Catholic and then endorses such atrosities. Now I know that excommunication is not something to act on too hastily, but I do hope our religious leaders will not simply shrug this off and will reflect on it seriously. This is a grave situation. May GOD have mercy on us all.
