Homosexual activist James Martin SJ published a propaganda article on Outreach.faith (September 18) for Francis' upcoming ex-synod. He claims to be reflecting on what he learned at the ex-synod from October 2023. His main points.
- In October 2023, "many" synod delegates were opposing homosexual sins.
- Martin allegedly heard "strong language" against homosexual sins. The terms "disgusting," "repulsive," "unnatural," and "sick" were regularly used in conversations.
- One delegate in a plenary session referred to homosexuality as a "Western ideology".
- Some delegates said that homosexual people either do not exist or merely agree with an ideology, which makes them homosexual. An African archbishop told Martin, "The reason that people are gay in my country is that Americans pay them to become homosexual."
- During the synod, the call to open the discussion on polygamy, raised by several African delegates, was [allegedly] received more warmly than the question about homosexuals.
- Martin asked an African bishop who supported accepting polygamous relationships, why we couldn't use the same argument for homosexuals: "Because one is natural and the other one isn't," the bishop replied.
- Several synod delegates told Martin that homosexuals hate the Church.

Sadly the Jesuit order and much of the hierarchy are dominated by people like Martin.
I assume Fr Martin agrees?
That’s the beauty of “Synodality”! You just keep synodizying until you get the consensus you want!
I hope he did, because that's what homosexual acts are. Any normal person who says they aren't repelled by these things are lying to themselves because of misplaced compassion brought upon by societal brainwashing.
“Martin asked an African bishop who supported accepting polygamous relationships, why we couldn’t use the same argument for homosexuals: “Because one is natural and the other one isn’t,” the bishop replied.”
Martin is so blinded by his own proclivities that he can’t see that the African bishop is objectively right. Polygamy may be socially undesirable but it is not contra nature.
We have bern set free by God to duffer the depravity of oyr free will choices.
What choices will we make! Infividually is how we are judged. Francis wont be there on the cross for uou, but Jesus Glorified will be there.
