“The priest, a very nice man, gave us very little in the way of the Bible, but a LOT in the way of leftist nonsense.

His homilies contained subjects like the death penalty (it’s bad!).

But pro-life? Never.

He initially had petitions against same-sex marriage, but the next week he removed them, but never told us why.

I am CERTAIN that some “Good Catholics” told him that they wouldn’t come to the church anymore if he did that.

So he folded like a cheap tent.

If I wanted to listen to some squish drone on about leftist causes and continuously ask for money, I can go to some Episcopalian church down the road.”


You’ve summed up the problem with many (c)atholic Churches perfectly.

True, but Jesus didn't promise us all good priests and homilies. Nothing can replace the Sacrifice of the Mass. A good priest and homily is a bonus.

As for suffering with bland hymns, liberal priests and lame homilies, it's not much in comparison to Christ's suffering.
