Is the guy really named Cutie?

If he wanted to avoid temptation from women, he should have changed his name.

Come on, lady! Why don’t you just follow Padre Al to the Anglican Communion? Nobody’s stopping you! You’ll be much happier!

“Catholic Church Too ‘Stringent,’ Should Be ‘More Progressive’ “

####

Rodriguez is too empty-headed and morally groundless, should be more firmly rooted and sure of her moral compass.

No one forces people to stay in the Church.

But perhaps misinformed “reporters” can take a lesson from a holy priest like Fr. Pio.

I never saw anything in the Bible that said priests should be celibate/single. Because the Catholic Church decided to do something that is unnatural, a lot of the people who chose to become Catholic priests are gay. Changing this rule will do nothing to degrade the standards of the Church, and will bring in some badly needed new blood to the priesthood.

Quick ... alert the pope! The US media says the Church should change!

Good grief.

CBS’s Rodriguez: Catholic Church Too ‘Stringent,’ Should Be ‘More Progressive’

Ms. Rogdiguez, I presume you have the same recommendations for the Republican Party?

” But Father Cutie is a single person, loving another single person, and when you have to obey your heart, indeed, what – the teaching that he could tell our people is that love is able to conquer everything.”

Oy. The Episcopal Church is certainly welcome to those who think love of self, living a lie, disobedience, pride, and scandel is a higher good than Christ.

Cutie could have asked to be laicized. He chose to be a publicity hound celebrity scoffing at his vows.

Y’all are welcome to him.

The problem is that ‘Progressive’ has religious connotations all it’s own. It’s not much more than saying ‘my religious beliefs are better than yours’.

To which I always ask ‘by what divine authority?’
