"... to self-righteously condemning them - you don't have that authority -"

Hyperbole much about condemnation, where is that at? Her home Church already told her what she needed to do to get back into the good graces of the Church. She caused a scene and the Pope did a photo-op. Why? She left the meeting declaring that a family will be formed within the Church with her girlfriend (In another article). The conclusion does not take much thought on how the meeting went if you actually learn more about this story.

Also since I am a male who has chosen to remain a male as well as her Pastor and mother, who she defied (After her death btw) by attempting to become a "male", I and they are sure as Christmas can righteously judge this already self admitted "Christian" lesbian trying to pervert the Church by strong arming her way in having the Church celebrate and accept her sin.

1 Corinthians gives the Pastor, Bishop, and yes, Congregation to *Judge* her full admittance into the Church. That fact that she already claims to be a practicing Catholic does not ring a bell at the main intentions (Hello).

The believers are to judge within. If this lady was a non-Christian you would be correct.

However you don't seem to know the difference between judging and condemning as well as what Jesus meant by righteous judgment (Who commanded us to do that btw) so unless you can grasp that along with 1 Corinthians 5, I Corinthians 1:10,etc... come back at me with something of substance.

I apologize for the backhanded swipe at your religion - I left it to keep things simpler and more straightforward and that works for me - if Catholicism works for you and for others who may have trouble staying in good graces with the Church, but keep plugging away, I really have no dog in the fight. Once again, I apologize.
God Bless
