There’s one thing they’re ignoring here .... being homosexual and committing acts of homosexuality are two different things.
Now, if this priest committed such acts, he’s guilty. If not, then he set the example for gays to follow ... celibacy.
Just to further clarify my first comment...
Yes, this article acknowledges gay, celibate priests. My point was that the gay community, while seeking to honor Fr. Judge, are at the same time ignoring the message he (and others like him) lived right in front of them. Even if he was gay, he didn’t (as far as I know) act on it. That’s the model they should be following.
hmmm...I had read that people who actually knew him said that he wasn’t gay, or at least no one knew because all indications were that he led a chaste life.
Yup. The really sickening part is that he’s passed on and could not defend himself. The fags truly are a screwed up bunch.
Its very unusual for gays to glorify someone who was openly chaste. They usually only celebrate promiscuity
Check out "gay history" anywhere and see how they distort sources to abduct people into "The Gay Community" after they're dead: King David, Jesus Christ, Abraham Lincoln, whoever they can get their hands on.
Even the LGBT's symbolic equivalent of Martin Luther King --- Harvey Milk --- is largely a posthumous creation. Yes, he was gay (and an active sodomite.) But he did not notably campaign for gay issues, and the guy who murdered him did not do so for anti-gay reasons: it was an unstable political rival with an unrelated grudge.
Fr. Mychal Judge's friends and his religious order should move strong and fast to set his story "straight".
Judge’s family and close friends say he was not a homosexual. The homosexuals are expropriating him for their own purposes. Hell,they tell the poor dumb kids in high school and college that people like Lincoln and Washington were homosexuals.

And yet no religious involvement with the 10th anniversary celebration. And no first responders.
He embodied both.
Placemark - turning comp off due to big thunderstorm heading my way, hearing thunder now.
I found many of the comments in that magazine disturbing, to say the least. One poster threw out the weird assertion that half the priests in the US are homosexuals. Others were not as ridiculous, yet their arguments were far from what I would expect from Catholics, even nominal Catholics.
Arguments similar to what might come from atheists, or liberals committed to dragging the church into the umbrella of leftism, subverting it totally to another cause.
