If he is unrepentant, the priest is under no obligation, as far as I’m aware.

Also, if the man did not feel his sexual acts were sinful.... WHY DID HE MENTION THEM?!

Sounds like this guy was trying to cause a controversy, so its just another rerun of the same boring story. Nothing to see here.

Also, Piglosi should be denied.

Exactly. Just can’t stand not having attention on himself.

Sounds like these coprophiliacs are attempting to stage another big fight against the Church over their “lifestyle”. Look for more disgusting displays inside churches during Mass.

It’s a good thing I live in a small town because I know that I would physically attack a person attempting such a protest at Mass, even though I am a grandmother and someone who hates confrontation.

It’s a matter of not being obligated.

But it’s also not wanting to contribute to mortal sin. The priest certainly wants the guy to gain eternal salvation.

Taking communion in the state of mortal sin is itself a mortal sin. The priest would never want to do that to this guy.

If the guy says he’s unrepentant after stating his sin, the priest can be sure he is in mortal sin. The priest endangers his own soul by administering communion.
