Some Vatican insiders say Father Jim has been a conduit to help communicate what Pope Francis really wants to say outside of the constraints of the Catholic cardinals and archbishops who run the Vatican.

I do not know how any Catholic can look at Francis and call him their religious leader.

Romans 1:18-32 ... if you see the fruit of championing homosexuality in society know that the proverbial canary in the coal mine has already died and the probervial air is bad where the fruit is displayed.

Flee from fellowship with those claiming to be Christians who are displaying this fruit. They are bad trees.

This is a bogus wedge issue. All good Catholics understand the concept of Christian charity. Some poor Catholics don’t understand or are not willing to accept that part of charity which requires them to inform to those who stray from the faith exactly where they’ve gone wrong, that they must cease doing so and, together with confession, that they must sincerely repent of it. Father James Martin, S.J. has a way of confirming these poor Catholics in that way of thinking, hence the “wedge” drives those poor Catholics even farther from the One True Faith and from the rest of us with whom they are supposed to be in communion.

Let me know when there's a Straight Pride month. I'll ignore that one too.

WTF is wrong with people who are "proud" of their sexuality? How can one be proud of something they were simply born with? It's not like anyone worked hard or sacrificed to become straight or gay. This "pride" BS is just nuts. I am "proud" that I plook women! I am "proud" that I eat corn the "long" way! GTFO

Catholics needs to wake up to the reality that the Church has been taken over by the left.

We saw the support for communism coming from the Church in Central and South America.

The US Catholic Church became home for gay pedophiles that were protected by other gay pedophiles for decades.

Now that global communism is on the cusp of victory over the forces of freedom, the Church can reveal itself as a long-time supporter of whatever the communist party leadership says they should support.

Our universities, media, entertainment and sports have all been indoctrinated and taken over by communism.....why shouldn’t the church?

I know a Father Jim who would vociferously disagree with this. Unfortunately the bishop in San Antonio forced him to retire.

Speaking of homos, I came up with a good name for a Seattle gay bar, with an aviation twist, called “ Reverse Thrusters”.

The nuns who taught me in the 50s and 60s would say otherwise. I'm sticking with them.

Martin is as queer as a wooden nickle. Benedict wouldn’t allow him near the Vatican. With Bergoglio he’s just another member of the Jesuit lavender Mafia who tell Pope Disaster what to do.

Read about the “House of Pride (Faerie Queene)” by Edmund Spenser

Here is address: spenserians.cath.vt.edu/TextRecord.php?textsid=68

two verses I’ll copy/paste in.

So forth she comes, and to her Coach does climb,
Adorned all with Gold and Garlands gay,
That seem’d as fresh as Flora in her Prime;
And strove to match, in royal rich Array,
Great Juno’s golden Chair, the which they say
The Gods stand gazing on, when she does ride
To Jove’s high House through Heavens brass-paved way,
Drawn of fair Peacocks, that excel in Pride,
And full of Argus’ Eyes their Tails disspredden wide.

But this was drawn of six unequal Beasts,
On which her six sage Counsellors did ride,
Taught to obey their bestial Beheasts,
With like Conditions to their kinds apply’d:
Of which the first, that all the rest did guide,
Was sluggish Idleness, the Nurse of Sin;
Upon a slothful Ass he chose to ride,
Array’d in Habit black, and amis thin,
Like to an holy Monk, the Service to begin

Father Jim is an agent of satan. For the Pope to even acknowledge him is wrong. Homosexual people are doing something wrong and we all know it. They are using something nature has created for the purpose of childbirth to perversely use to titilate themselves without any responsibility for what they have done. This is a very serious sin. Father Jim and Pope Francis are trying to make us accept the sins of these people as being okay. They are not! Sexual perverts should not be treated as if they are okay, anymore than treating a murderer or an abortionist as if they are okay. To do so is to turn our backs on what the church teaches. Homosexuals should be treated as what they are. They are people who are playing with something that is created for a higher purpose which they are not entitled to. They were called an abomination in the bible. They are still an abomination trying to shake the title. Nothing has changed. Treat them as who they are and for what they are doing.

Oh good lord. How is anyone a follower of this apostate clown?

Jesus said go and sin no more. He did NOT say now go prance in the streets wearing assless chaps.
