Legal Battle Erupts Over Planned Black Mass in Kansas Capitol | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A legal dispute is unfolding between the faithful and Satanists over a planned Black Mass at the Kansas State Capitol. The "Satanic Grotto" group is hosting the event, and Catholic Archbishop Joseph Naumann has filed a lawsuit, alleging they unlawfully obtained a consecrated host and wine. The Catholic response has been strong, with some support from the Governor of Kansas, who has moved the event outside the Capitol while stating his duty to uphold First Amendment rights. Legal and religious leaders are weighing in on this controversial issue. Chuck Weber, Executive Director of the Kansas Catholic Conference, discusses whether the Satanist group possesses a consecrated host and how Catholics are responding to this. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
