"Thrilled" that "decades of division" have been overcome
NEW YORK (ChurchMilitant.com) - New York's Cdl. Timothy Dolan is celebrating greater inclusion at this year's St. Patrick's Day Parade, which has lifted its ban on homosexuals and allowed two gay activist groups to march officially under their own banners.
Mayor Bill de Blasio, who dropped his boycott of the parade and marched through the streets of New York City Thursday, praised the event for welcoming homosexuals.
"I think it sends a moral signal," he told the press. "This says that New York City is whole again, that the people of New York City are unified, and that we're learning to overcome division."
Cardinal Dolan and de Blasio warmly embraced, Dolan telling a reporter from the local CBS affiliate that he was "thrilled" that "decades of division" had been overcome.
"There's a great spirit ... a wonderful sense of unity and friendship," Cdl. Dolan remarked. "I'd say 'Alleluia' but I can't because it's Lent."

There was a “great spirit of unity” when they built the Tower of Babel as well. Things didn’t turn out too well back then. “Unity” is not always a reflection of being good. Sometimes unity leads to destruction.
Nothing like pandering to 2% while alienating 50%, and defying God and Natural Law...
“New York’s Cdl. Timothy Dolan is celebrating greater inclusion at this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade, which has lifted its ban on homosexuals and allowed two gay activist groups to march officially under their own banners.”
Yes, someday there will be nothing but a sea of individual banners and we will all see the wonderful melting pot. /s
He makes me ill.
Woe to those that proclaim bad is good — Isaiah And for the Cardinal especially, “Not many [of you] should become teachers [serving in an official teaching capacity], my brothers and sisters, for you know that we [who are teachers] will be judged by a higher standard [because we have assumed greater accountability and more condemnation if we teach incorrectly].” James 3:1 amp.
It most certainly does, but perhaps not in the way he thinks it does.
Must be chapter and worse from the NYV edition.
Amen.
Sodom and Bagarroh.
UGH
Dolan is another priest on the make, angling for an eventual appointment in Rome. He is dangerously ambitious.
Dolan MUST be GAY!!!! He certainly isn’t representing CHRIST in this.....Jesus said...GO AND SIN NO MORE, NOT “YOU GO, GAYS”!!!
It is simply a financial decision by RCINC. RCINC is the oldest most profitable multinational corporation on the planet.
Here's a summary ...
The plaintiffs allege that Fr. Peter Miqueli embezzled more than a million dollars from several parishes in the Archdiocese of New York to finance a lavish lifestyle with a male prostitute ... and that Cardinal Dolan helped cover up the crime.
As a New Yorker, I can firmly say that Dolan is the worst archbishop ever. Cardinal O’Connor would never have allowed this heresy to occur.
Apparently, the AOH was concerned when Guinness pulled their sponsorship in the parade, so the group rolled over and submitted to the lavender mafia. Bunch of cowards. What the media never says is that no group was ever banned from marching in the parade. It was always a non-political, non-partisan event. Only schools and employers, such as FDNY, were allowed to march under a banner. The AOH did not allow pro-life groups to march under their banner. And to think this parade is to honor the saint who brought Christianity to Ireland.
Disgraceful.
Yeah, thanks Dolan. Your real colors show.
He’s correct when he states that NYC is a hole. Last time I
was there was well over 10 yrs. ago; so it’s probably a
worse hole now. Depressing; but then I’m not “sophisticated”.
