LGBT launches offensive against Krakow archbishop; fellow prelates hit back
GYŐR, Hungary (ChurchMilitant.com) - "We brothers drink from the same cup," goes a saying shared for centuries between Hungarians and Poles.
The old saying is finding new meaning as Hungarian bishops — and others in the region — come to the support of Krakow Abp. Marek Jędraszewski, who is being slammed by leftist LGBT forces.
Archbishop Jędraszewski has been roundly criticized by pro-LGBT groups, both in and out of Poland, for calling the movement "a rainbow plague" replacing the old red one. But the Cracovian archbishop has also been defended by the Polish people, a 15-year-old young man who held high the cross and the Rosary to stop an LGBT march through his town representing one example.
Hungarian bishops, too, have expressed their support for Abp. Jędraszewski and their "amazement" that he is being attacked for simply expressing the teaching of the Catholic Church.
"We would also like to express our solidarity and fraternal support with this letter," Bp. András Veres, president of the Hungarian bishops' conference, wrote to Abp. Stanisław Gądecki, chairman of the Polish bishops' conference.
Their full letter reads:
Venerable Excellency,
We know from our history that persistence in teaching our faith has repeatedly caused the anger of others. Nevertheless, we are observing with amazement the last unjust attacks because you have only expressed the teaching of the Catholic Church in the face of the phenomenon of our time. It is shocking that those who demand acceptance of their beliefs at the same time refuse to have the right to speak to you and those who have a different opinion on a given matter.

Too bad we don’t have that kind of bishops here.
