He got fired from his job, but he’s still a priest.

but it’s time the Church opened its eyes

Indeed.

Open your eyes, RC Church, and kick the rest of the sodomites to the curb. Let them form their own "Church of Buggery".

There is no prohibition of homosexuals in the Catholic Church as long as they refrain from sexual activity. “Love the sinner, hate the sin.” That is what the Church bans. The argument that the Church “bans” gays is misleading and false.

Consider the great irony.
He entered a profession where you have to practice celibacy and instead he practices deviancy. Yet he probably feels he is being persecuted.
The Left abhors hypocrisy unless it is their hypocrisy.

I doubt that he and his homosexual “partner” are celibate. Anyone who does not consider homosexuality a sin, whether celibate or not, should not be in any leadership position of any Christian church.

Since when has making misleading and false statements prevented the liberals from making their political statement?

The liberals are fabulously happy that he chose this time to come out of the closet, and introduce his boyfriend. So by having a boyfriend he is rubbing in our faces that he is not a celibate person with same sex attraction. So we have to deal with the fact that he acts on those attractions.

Listen to their arguments.

They don’t believe they are tearing down the church.... they believe that they are making the church “inclusive” and “tolerant” ( TWO COMMON LIBERAL BUZZ WORDS ).

In other words, they want the church to keep up with the 21st century, which they consider to be “progress”.

They measure morality by the calendar.
