I want to PUKE - shame on the priest - the Church stands for NOTHING if it won’t call its members to task for going against teaching - major hypocracy!!!!!

Agreed. Excommunication latae sententiae is NOT the answer. When priests like this one actively spread heresy and involve themeselves repeatedly in public scandal, it’s not enough to say that, well, he will quietly go to Hell in due time.

No. In the first place, it is the duty of his superiors to try to save his soul by counseling him. And if that proves futile, then it is their duty to remove him from the priesthood. Latae sententiae should serve as a threat and a warning to people not to commit these sins. But if they flagrantly, repeatedly, and publicly commit them, then it’s past time for the next step.

Since his immediate superiors are Jesuit heretics, it is AT LEAST incumbent on the bishop to refuse to allow him to preside over masses or to give sermons in any parish churches in the Diocese. And frankly, it’s time to kick the Jesuit order out of dioceses like Washington, if they are going to continually be a public scandal to God and the Church.
