Pope Leo XIV met Monday with one of the most prominent advocates for greater LGBTQ inclusion in the Catholic Church and encouraged his ministry, just days before a planned Holy Year pilgrimage of LGBTQ Catholics to the Vatican.

The Rev. James Martin, a New York-based Jesuit author and editor, said Leo told him he intended to continue Pope Francis’ policy of LGBTQ acceptance in the church and encouraged him to keep up his advocacy.

The message he received from Leo was “that if people were happy with Pope Francis’ approach to LGBTQ Catholics, they’re going to be happy with Pope Leo’s approach. And he asked me to continue what I’m doing, which was very encouraging,” Martin said.

Nope. Sorry. This won’t bring Catholics home.

Another Red Pope for the next 10-20-25 years.

“On Earth as in in Heaven”. Well, there are no rainbow flags or LGBTQ pride parades in heaven. No drag queen story hours, no gender affirming care, and no gay marriage. If you’re not willing to give all those up, then you’re not going to heaven. So why is there church acceptance of them?

“Nope. Sorry. This won’t bring Catholics home.”

Indeed. It’s tragic that there’s so much willful blindness on this... There’s no easier way to kill a church than to queer it, cf. every liberal protestant sect that has gone in that direction, e.g., Anglican/Episcopal, United Methodist, mainline Presbyterianism, Lutheran state churches of Scandinavia etc etc

I pray nightly for the Pope to follow Saint Peter and not go woke, I will continue.

I would not put it past Martin to lie about his meeting with Pope Leo.

What, did he meet with Son of Satan Democrat Barack Hussein Obama? The Dark Principalities in the Heavenly Realms are certainly busy with Satan's LGBTQ+ Godless Reprobate Agenda to Destroy Normal Society. SMH

We ARE in the Days of Lot (Luke 17:28-32). Pray up, dear friends.

Leftists are at War

ALL CHURCHES must STOP promoting the Godless Reprobate LGBTQ+ Agendas - these are the works of That Old Serpent Called the Devil and Satan to destroy the Church(es) from within.

Jesus and Mary with Symbol of Sin

“The photo shared by Fr. Martin was made by pro-abortion activists in Poland who openly attack God, the Catholic Church and moral values.

Radical pro-abortion and pro-LGBT activist Elzbieta Podlesna, for example, posted copies of the desecrated icon of Jesus and Mary around St. Dominic’s Church in Plock.

According to AP, the altered icon was also displayed on “garbage bins and mobile toilets.”

Who else uses the desecrated icon? The same pro-abortion mobs who stormed Catholic Churches and vandalized statues of the Saints after the Polish government restricted access to abortion.”

Leo simply is a thinner and better dressed version of Francis.

I was at first pleasantly surprised by ol’ Pope Leo.

Looks like I was wrong. He’s cut from the Francis cloth, only better at disguising it.
