Barbara Johnson is known to be a Buddhist, and marching in and declaring that the woman accompanying her was her lover purposefully set up a situation where the priest had every right to refuse her communion.
Her only reason for committing such a scene at her mother’s funeral was to embarrass and discredit the Roman Catholic Church AND I suspect to childishly and horribly disrespect the memory of her deceased mother.
This was a full-on assault on religious and conservative culture - Barbara Johnson displayed no tolerance for the dignity or feelings of others and reminds me of my own experience with radical homosexuals 35-years ago.
I was walking on a city street in Portland, Oregon, near the Pioneer Courthouse when accosted by two men. They crowded me agaisnt a store front, spit on me and shouted that I was “breeder shit”.
From the incident with Barbara Johnson, it is clear that radical queers haven’t changed at all.
I’m sorry for your attack.
The Washington Post featured this today. The first half was Guarnizo’s account: He has been put on admin leave because of the incident. The Church is saying that is not the case, but there can be no other reason. He has been accused of some questionable behavior when all he wanted to do was get written corroborative accounts from two individuals from the funeral home who might have witnessed the event. He also said that he had to temporarily excuse himself from part of the service because he had a migraine attack.
The last half of the article was Johnson’s brother slamming the good priest and demanding his head for Guarnizo’s treatment of his sister.
I saw a picture today of Martin O’Malley, Maryland’s guv, reaching out and shaking Johnson’s hand. O’Malley pushed for a gay marriage bill here. His wife is a judge and was quoted in the press calling opponents of the gay marriage “cowards”. Clearly they are all activists.
I sure hope that Dolan puts the fear of God on Wuerl to do the right thing on this.
RE: Barbara Johnson is known to be a Buddhist,
Then what business does she have demanding to receive communion?
This is not very different from Sandra Fluke demanding that a Catholic institution offer contraceptives to fornicating students.
You are 100% right about Johnson's probable motives. She was cruising for her cause, deliberately setting up the priest for that confrontation. Homosexuality ISN'T ever going to be normalized...because it IS abnormal, down to the bones of our human DNA.
As for the two men who accosted you, they deserved to be reported to the police, charged with assault. With THEIR attitude they would end up in the POKEY, where they deserve to be for their assault on you.
Radicals of any ilk are scarey. Part of the scarey is that they are emotional retards who can be swayed with the emotion of the moment. That's how lynch mobs start.
The next time you feel a scarey moment, get outta Dodge...hit the road and run. Discretion IS the better part of valor.
You've erred a bit here. It isn't that he had a *right* to refuse the Eucharist, he had an *OBLIGATION* to do so...
