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.
Don't hold your breath. Dolan has apparently been a little over-tolerant toward gays himself.
Wuerl is going to jettison any priest, however brilliant, talented, and holy, who runs afoul of the gay lobby. He doesn't want anybody in his archdiocese, including himself, to be outed.
Thanks for your sympathy. The fact is, I’ve known many homosexuals of both sexes and find they are no better or worse than any run-of-the-mill human beings.
Stories like this one make me suspect that the world is upside down and the Roman Catholic church is on the slide.
