But not for decency. The author's point could still have been made w/o the coarse language

Yes, if minor, it is not necessary, as the Bible shows.

Yet attributing words of tradition to the Lord is profane:

Blessed Lord Himself told St. Catherine of Siena that it makes Him NAUSEOUS and that even the demons withdraw from it because it is so sick and twisted that their angelic natures – demonic as they are – cannot stand to look upon it or be near it.

There is zero evidence the demons are repulsed by this, any more than they are to swine, or even have any virtue, and in fact it is demons who are behind sodomy, not repelled by it.

But Scripture is only a servant for Rome, not her master. and insufficient to support her traditions, thus she can attempt to provide for herself what is needed.

Dolan has now taken it a step further – he HAS in fact JUDGED the sin of sodomy, and has JUDGED it positively. ”Bravo” means “good”. ”Good for him” means GOOD. FOR. HIM.

This is true. There is not such thing as no judging in this sense. The sodomites in Gn. 19 also came out - to get in Lot's door and his holy guests. Who did not say "Bravo."

Just for the sake of accuracy: the fact that Ann Barnhardt or Catherine of Siena credited a purported vision, does not mean that the vision was accepted as a source of doctrine by the Catholic Church.

In fact, no alleged "private revelations" --- including visions, dreams, infused knowledge, mystical appearances and so forth --- are to be used as sources of doctrine, nor are any of the faithful obliged to believe in them de fide --- not even if the apparent vision or locution was one that you, yourself experienced.

Keeping this in mind will help keep your criticisms of the Church better-defined and more judicious.
