Paul Ryan Boots Pro-Gay Jesuit as U.S. House Chaplain
LifeSite News ^ | 4/27/18 | Doug Mainwaring

WASHINGTON DC, April 27, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – Capitol Hill is in an uproar over House Speaker Paul Ryan’s request for the resigation of Jesuit, pro-gay chaplain Rev. Patrick Conroy as the official U.S. House of Representatives chaplain.

Conroy resigned yesterday after allegedly being given an ultimatum by Speaker Ryan. According to a report by The Hill, “Four different sources—two from each party—say Conroy was told that he must retire or that he would be dismissed.”

While those who serve as House Chaplain are expected to conduct themselves in a non-partisan manner, many sources are saying that Speaker Ryan wanted Rev. Conroy out because he had aligned himself with liberal Democrats.

Conroy said that Speaker Ryan had recently told him, "Padre, you just got to stay out of politics."

In the wake of Conroy’s dismissal, NBC reports, “More than 70 Democratic lawmakers have signed a letter demanding answers from Speaker Paul Ryan about his decision to oust the chaplain of the House of Representatives.”

Most of the Catholic Democrats questioning Conroy’s resignation have long histories of voting in favor of abortion as well as gay and transgender issues.

Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, a Democrat from New York, tweeted that Conroy’s ouster is a "shameful anti-Catholic move motivated by conservative extremists in Congress."

Ironic now that he’s retiring, Ryan isn’t acting all RINO on some things.

It’s not irony! Ryan got caught with some appendage in some cookie jar! The price for now is to behave as he is told to behave.

Remember, Q knew that the Pope was going to talk about revising the Lord’s Prayer a couple of weeks before it was announced. A “pro-Gay Jesuit”, Hum! Maybe there is more to this story. Time will tell.

The truth again comes out in regard to the true Demomcrat Party agenda: Pro-homosexuality. Nothing else really matters.

Thanks for the letter, Dems. The lack of Republicans signing means YOU MADE RYAN’S POINT.

Don’t expect to be treated like a Catholic if you don’t act like a Catholic.

You should expect a heightened level of liberal permissiveness from a Jesuit priest.

The only rational response would be a stiff middle finger. Don't think we've sunk quite that low in our discourse, though - so it should be shredded and ignored.

Hallelujah! I’ve read Ryan fired that guy, but first I’ve read he was pro-faggot.

Here’s another good question. Are there any conservative Jesuits that adhere to the teachings of the Gospel rather than the Book of Marx?

Sounds like this guy was a typical lib Jesuit like the Red Pope, pro-tax, pro-gay, pro-Muslim. Real Catholics should be pleased, not mad.

It’s sad what happened to the Jesuits, who used to be the greatest of Catholic Orders.

Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC) has said he thinks the next Chap should have a family so as to have better context to offer counsel to members. This is being attacked as Anti-catholic and that POV would exclude Catholic Priests from the position. But IMO Walker has a damn good point. For the record I wish they’d allow Priests to marry, it would be the beginning of the end for the lavender mafia infecting the Church.

The Lavendar Mafia are homosexual priests. How would allowing straight priests to get married do away with the sex abuse problem, when the vast majority of sex abuse cases involve homosexual priests molesting young teenage boys?

You could require that they be married to a woman before being admitted.

If, they screamed "Ewwww, girls are icky." then you should question if they should be allowed to be a priest.

I didn’t mention boy rape (not every fag is a boy raper) but because Priests can’t marry like most men would want to, you have a disproportionate number of queers coming into seminaries.

Letting more normal men in will reduced the % of fags and thus their power. There’s a priest shortage too.

The queer priest problem is because they lie to get in the seminary. They are not admitted in if they have deep homosexual tendencies. They are asked and they lie. Once they’re in, like all homosexuals I have met in my life they can’t control their urges. Even though they took a vow of celibacy it means nothing. A lot of times the bishops are also homosexual and they look out for each other, The only way the church will ever get a handle on the homosexual problem is to kick the offending priests out of the church if they’re found quilty of sexual misconduct. This problem is not isolated to the Catholic Church. It’s happens all over.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Are these the same LIBs that only last week were ‘damning’ PDT for ‘forcing’ P Ryan - the GREATEST speaker ever - to resign....

Kind of like the D opposition to ‘Mr Magoo’ when the hearings were going on and when it was rumored that PDT may fire him ALL the D & Rs that were AGAINST him were now claiming he was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Hypocricy is becoming a household word
