For quite some time, the Vatican has been aware of its gay mafia, of the drug-fueled gay sex parties in Vatican City, etc.
This makes the official position of the church authority: Gay is OK, We Look the Other Way.
It is no surprise that the authorities have no problem with gay revelations in a parish.
It is sad.
A real Church doesn’t have a “gay” person as a leader, even if he is not practicing. A Church leader must be above and beyond others in their spirituality and above reproach in their practices. Someone struggling with being “gay” can be accepted, loved, encouraged and supported in their endeavor to follow Christ, but they are not eligible to be a Church leader. Not every Christian is.
That being said I do not support the Catholic Church in the first place, as it is engulfed in way to many false doctrines and practices.
Will any journalist ask the archbishop how he wants to prevent a mistaken impression that homosexual acts are not immoral?
I still think he announced because he is looking for sex and doesn’t want his parishioners shocked if they see him smoothing other men...Otherwise,why bother saying anything???
They also supported priests who molested children too.
So why “come out” if he plans to honor his vows?
What a queer religion!
I can’t figure out why gays think I care about or am interested in their sex lives anyways.
They know that normal people aren’t interested.
All I can see the advantage for someone coming out is to announce to new potential partners that they are available.
The serious problem here is that it appears that the bishop is buying into, and publicizing, the line, not established, that homosexuality is something a person is born with.
another narcissist homosexual. Breaks his vows and commits adultery, but its all about HIS Journey
“Every week there are people in our pews who struggle with the question of homosexuality.” Projection. They wish.
Satan whispers in the ears of the easily-offended and says, “You are gay. You are attracted to…”
I heard this from a Protestant street preacher in Berkeley in 1985 and after studying Freud and Jung about trauma, I conclude that the preacher is correct.
The bishop is walking on thin ice above a pit of bad forces. The priest should go live in the desert and eat bread and water for a year before stepping on a church altar.
Church doctrine on vicious actions is accurate and only the vicious spit on Church doctrine.
Interesting article. Thank you.
“At least 300 U.S. priests suffered AIDS-related deaths between the mid-1980s and 1999.” 300 over a 15 years period is .01% of the fifteen million people that died of AIDS over the same period.
“For the wages of sin is death,” wrote St. Paul in Romans 6:23. Priests know it as well as anyone.
That's because the 'authorities' are homos as well...
Had I been a Catholic I would have wondered if my boys had been coerced into servicing one of these perverts growing up...
Your Grace, will you be so supportive of him when the police come calling and the lawyers start filing claims?
Great question.
There’s nothing “unlikely” about the successive proliferation of eunuch parrots perched atop Akhenaten’s state-establishing self/sun-worshiping empire.
Same ol’ Ba’alShyte, different municipal toilet.
‘No, no and no.’
