In our last post, we reported on how Boston priest, Fr. Walter Cuenin, promoted a petition to have the gay “rainbow” flag cover the Oval Office in Washington, but we learned hours later that we missed some even more scandalous things this priest has done.
For the month of October, Fr. Cuenin has had what he describes as “an enormous gay pride flag” displayed outside the chapel to “recognize both Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer History Month. A photo is below.
Here is what Fr. Cuenin had to say about this in an interview with the Brandeis student newspaper, The Justice:
In an interview with the Justice, Rev. Walter Cuenin, the University’s Catholic chaplain and coordinator of the Interfaith Chaplaincy, explained the chapel’s display and its significance in detail. He described the flag right beside the chapel as an “enormous gay pride flag.” He also mentioned that a pink cloth covers the altar and added that there are also pink candles in the chapel. Cuenin said that he wanted students to be aware of issues regarding discrimination pertaining to the LGBTQ community and breast cancer awareness and research.
Cuenin acknowledged that a priest hanging an LGBTQ pride flag outside of the chapel might be a bit of a surprise, stating that many believe “a priest would never do that,” given the Catholic Church’s stance that homosexuality is morally wrong. He said he feels deeply that there needs to be more focus on how people act outside of the Church as opposed to good deeds and social activism being confined to the Church.
As we all know the gay rainbow flag is a symbol of “gay pride” and LGBT social movements. This is commonly associated with gay pride parades and gay pride weeks, where the following is typically on display:
Sado-masochism Profanity and vulgarity, much of it in an angry tone Homosexual sex; condoms and anal lubricant given out almost everywhere Horrible “gay” diseases and psychological problems The problem of “gay” domestic violence Hatred of traditional religion, particularly Catholicism Perversions such as cross-dressing and transsexual body mutilation An obsession with children and teenagers This is what Fr. Cuenin promoted outside the church in October. One article reports that when one enters the church, inside the foyer year-round he also proudly displays a multicolored gay pride flag, while this article says he has the rainbow flag inside the chapel. The article continues, “Father Cuenin is also a official LGBT ally on campus, through his work with Trisk (Brandeis’ GLBTQA student group). He also continuously makes himself available and accessible to struggling students in his role as a confidential resource. This article says, “Father Cuenin has always displayed a rainbow peace flag inside the chapel, as a statement that the chapel is friendly to people of all sexualities. That will continue to be the case when the pride flag outside is taken down at the end of the month. Cuenin also commented that he takes his role as a confidential resource on campus very seriously, and hopes that more students will feel welcome to talk with him as a result of these displays.”
There are so many things wrong with what is going on there, it is tough to express in words. How can a Catholic priest be allowed to promote “gay pride” and gravely sinful, immoral behavior and remain in active ministry? Imagine a 17 or 18-year-old child away from home for the first time who might be confused about their sexual identity going to talk to Fr. Cuenin for a Catholic perspective–and instead of hearing about how Christ calls them to chastity and holiness, they see the gay pride flag there with a Catholic priest advocating for the gay lifestyle and the sinful, disordered, medically unsafe behaviors that are a part of it. (The matter of the pink cloth on the altar for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and using the altar to advance his own ideology and agenda is an entirely different issue).
This crap from Fr. Cuenin has been going on for at least 12-15 years, if not longer. His public testimony to the Mass Legislature in 2002 opposing a ban on “gay marriage” should have gotten him permanently removed from ministry then. Write to the following people and ask for his immediate removal.
Dir. of Campus Minisry, Fr. Richard Clancy: frclancy@mit.edu Vicar General, Bishop Peter Uglietto: vicar_general@rcab.org Terry Donilon, Secretary for Communications: tdonilon@rcab.org. Cardinal Sean O’Malley: archbishopsean_o’malley@rcab.org U.S. Papal Nuncio Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano: nuntiususa@nuntiususa.org
might as well wave a phallic symbol on top and in the faces of people going there. Let us be real.
O'Malley - one of the elect members of Francis’ Gang of Eight.
This man did not really have a vocation to the priesthood. God would not call someone who has no intention of putting Him first.
Who are we to judge?
Apparently Cardinal O'Malley values his contributions.
These disgusting people are supported by the contributions of faithful Catholics. They take our money and use it to support their immoral decadent lifestyle.
Our contributions are used to support their gay sex and pay for their lawsuits.
Faithful Catholics give so much to the church and ask for so little in return. It is disgusting that they take our money to support and promote this homosexual network.
They are destroying the church.
The man needs to read the Bible and this:
Catechism of the Catholic Church
|
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. |
Is he a homosexual?
There is anecdotal evidence that disproportionate numbers of Catholic priests are homosexual.
And, disproportionate numbers of Catholic Church child abuse cases were cases of homosexual child abuse.
Brandeis is in Waltham, Massachusetts. It’s a Jewish school.
There are apostolates which continue to unabashedly uphold Church teachings in full. We need to carefully discern the types of activities our donations are supporting either directly or indirectly and stop contributing to the wolves.
The interfaith movement, which began with the 1893 World’s Parliament of Religions in Chicago, has grown worldwide. Although largely unknown to the public, the interfaith movement is a syncretic movement consisting of nature religions from around the world, neo-paganism, mystical pantheism and liberal progressive Christianity that now provides a spiritual face for the spiritual, economic and political forces leading us all to ‘One World’.
The most ambitious organization in today’s interfaith movement is the United Religions Initiative (URI), founded by William Swing, the Episcopal Bishop of California. ( http://www.falsedawn.us/ )
The man needs to be removed from public ministry by Cardinal O'Malley (one of Pope Francis' Gang of Eight). Cuenin has been an activist for years, yet Cardinal O'Malley continues to allow him a pulpit.
Cuenin is the un-Catholic chaplain at Brandeis, appointed by O'Malley.
“The Rev. Walter H. Cuenin, the popular pastor of a vibrant Newton parish who was forced to resign over a contested allegation of financial impropriety, is being appointed by the Archdiocese of Boston as Catholic chaplain at Brandeis University.
The appointment, by Archbishop Sean P. O’Malley, could reduce some of the controversy over Cuenin’s treatment by the archdiocese; the Brandeis appointment is considered desirable by the priest’s supporters, because of his longtime interest in Catholic-Jewish relations.”
Thanks. In another recent development, Francis reached an ecumenical hand out to representatives of NAR (New Apostolic Reformation).
Now with respect to the Interfaith Chaplaincy:

Well Priests did invent GAY
Is this make believe Priest also OK with the millions of Perverts who died due to disease spread because of this abhorrent and sinful Lifestyle. This P.O.S. should be Defrocked,and the sooner the Better.
If I were 50 years younger I would personally remove him and his “FLAGS” from any part of the Church. Let the bum go out and work somewhere else for his money.
He is not a Priest !!!
