ATLANTA (ChurchMilitant.com) - Celebrity Jesuit Fr. James Martin is heading to Georgia, courtesy of pro-gay Abp. Wilton Gregory of Atlanta, Georgia.
On Friday, Martin announced on Twitter that Abp. Gregory has invited him to speak in October at two Atlanta-area locations.
"Archbishop Wilton Gregory of Atlanta has graciously invited me to his archdiocese to speak," Martin tweeted, "so I will be speaking at St. Thomas More Parish (the Jesuit parish) on Sat. Oct 20 and at the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception on the morning of Sun. Oct 21."

God save the Catholic Church.
Gregory — not on my good Bishop list.
Are all of these gay members or community members who want to join the church in monogamous relationships? Married? Living in sin?
Living in sin.
What’s that?
it’s spelled sodomy. Bible has warnings about this kind of sin.
Proud of your defiance to conventional norms and seeking the celebration of your lifestyle choice in spite of thousands of years of biblical teachings.

the sex positive agenda seeks to end all moral judgments regarding sexual pairings of any kind regardless of sex, age, relation, marital status, number, or species of partner(s).

It fits his very racist, very pro-illegal-alien, doctrine.
Do I believe he voted for Obama-Hillary-Kerry-Gore-Clinton?
Absolutely.
Would he vote for a pro-life candidate for anything?
Not if a democrat were on the ballot.
It’s too late to save the Catholic Church. I remember a bishop being interviewed on Fox. He said 50% of Catholic priests were gay.I expect the Catholic Church to accept gay marriage in order to regain this evil world’s approval.
Good, he just removed ALL doubts as to where he stands and what he stands for. He simply is just one more Cardinal/Archbishop, Bishop who has to be sent packing.
