More interesting fact.
1. Before the funeral mass, Barbara Johnson went into to the sacristy and introduced her lesbian “partner” to Father Marcel.
2. Father Marcel also did not publicly denounce Miss Johnson, instead he quietly whispered to her that he could not give her communion.
Wonder if the WaPo will not print a retraction.........Bwahahahahahhahaaaaa.....When pigs fly!
“Wonder if the WaPo will not print a retraction.”
And will the Washington Archdiocese rescind its apology to Ms. Johnson and its reprimand to the priest? As likely as the WaPo retraction, unfortunately.
Actually, it is said that she used the word “lover” when she introduced her partner to Father Marcel, in the sacristy before Mass. He explained to then, in private, that she should not present herself for Holy Communion. This is exactly what he should have done, completely in accordance to the way the Archdiocese explained that he should have.
I fear for the Church. By not standing up for Father Marcel the way they should have, they will confuse many, and many will be led astray.
