Perhaps a better headline should read:
Catholic priest makes heroic attempt to get sinner to heaven - the sinner refuses.
You have to applaud this man, a member of a maligned minority, who has the courage of his convictions, and expresses those convictions in a gentle and loving manner.
By "this man" I mean, of course, Fr. Coelho. He saved Mr. Plishka from a disastrous misstep, which is, to receive Our Lord in Holy Communion while in a spiritually unready state. Instead, he kindly invited Mr. Plishka to receive his priestly blessing -- at which time Pishka told him to "get the fuck out of here."
This is not a spiritually radiant response to a man who has just offered you a blessing. Sadly, it tends to confirm that Mr. Plishka was demanding Holy Communion in an inward state of turbulent wrath. It demonstrated that he was in such condition that the type of union implied by "communion" would be a lie.
Fr. Coelho's hand of benediction was verbally slapped back. Plishka was offered a blessing and he responded with a curse. May God bless Fr. Coelho. May God keep offering Mr. Plishka the grace he so angrily rebuffed.
