I think it depends on what this “information booth” is promoting. Jesus himself went into the dens of sin to preach to sinners. It’s not the healthy who need a physician. If you want to save sinners you have to go where the sinners are. BUT...if the booth is encouraging or promoting this parade and what it represents then everything in the article is spot on.
What kind of information booth? I would pray that the Friars will not be there to condone the event rather pray for the depraved souls attending it.
How is it that homosexuals have co-opted the word “pride”, as they have done with the word “gay”????
I heard about these “Pride” festivals. They sometimes don’t say what everyone is so proud about, but, any pride festivals I’ve heard of are homosexual events.
Some of these pride festivals even market the events as “family friendly”, and say, bring the whole family, bring the kids.
How disgusting. Of course people have rights to put on their parade. I for one will not bring the children.
and the church wonders where its flock went...
Push back against the Gay Power Supremacist marches.
They are as ugly as the klan marches of the 1960s.
They poison the culture and HATE people (here Christians and specifically Catholics).
I once had the misfortune of seeing a news item that contained uncensored photos of a “Pride” parade. Public sex acts, nudity, grotesque behavior. If the Friars are there to spread the Good News and offer the way to forgiveness, God Bless them. Any other reason is an affront to faithful Catholics. Vivat Jesus!
The Catholic church seems to be hell-bent on destroying itself, by letting bearded savages pray with them, and letting the alternate-forms-of-sex crowd take over Catholic institutions.
Man oh man...what is happening to the Catholic’s?
I read the other day that the Vatican allowed muslim prayers. Islam is not holy, it is of the anti-Christ.
Why would pope Francis allow such a thing?
At first upon reading the headline and blub on the index thread, I was concerned. However, if they are only having a booth at the end as the article says, then it is actually a good thing. I am not Catholic, and I disagree with much of the Catholic doctrine.
However, If this were say the year 50 AD, I do believe you would have found the Apostle Paul at the end trying to win converts to Christ.
If the church were participating in a way that supported the lewd behavior, immodest dress, and lurid displays of exhibitionism and sadomasochism, then I would be concerned.
Truth is, there should be a lot of Christians standing were the Saint Anthonys Shrine is going to be to enlighten the lost by sharing the Gospel of Christ with the truth in hopes of saving some lost souls.
What a statement this is about my fellow Evangelicals who could lose some potential converts to the catholic church.
Saint Francis of Assisi wouldn’t have done this. He embraced Lady Chastity.

God has already judged homosexual behaviors, and clearly forbidden them. For example, the Holy Spirit had St. Paul write:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the Kingdom of God.

If there is a disagreement about something between some group of friars and the Holy Spirit and the written Word of Almighty God, there should be no doubt in anyone's mind as to who is right about the matter.
Cardinal Sean O'Malley was recently appointed by Pope Francis to serve in a Vatican antiabuse guiding panel, so he should not allow this, and he should also ask the Pope to clarify exactly what he meant when he was quoted as saying what they are putting on their t-shirts and buttons, so that no one can take it the wrong way in the future.
Tip of the iceberg.
