Andrew Sullivan: "FATHER MYCHAL JUDGE: When I mentioned a while back that the New York City firemen's friar, Mychal Judge, was a gay man, some of you asked me for evidence. Here's a poignant piece on the man, partly prompted by my posting about him a while back, in the current New York Magazine. Prepare to be surprised and inspired."

I still don't see a shred of proof that he was a homosexual. Only that he was an honorable celibate Clergy who rejected the homosexual lifestyle and its dangers.

This is pretty chilling, but I just got warned that an abuse report was filed against me and I am in danger of being banned for posting something "anti-gay". What the heck is going on when even at FreeRepublic you can't post an opinion or information that just may not agree 100% with the New Butt Order (N.B.O.)?

Is this enough EVIDENCE for you???

It was linked to in the sentence right after the one of Sullivan's you quoted.

Although Father Mychal Judge is not known to have strayed from his celebacy, he was always ready to offer words of comfort and inspiration to people facing terrible challenges, including those facing dangers, those suffering as sexual outlaws, those who would otherwise be unheard and uncared for. Kinda like someone else I could name.
