GAY TRUTH

A Catholic church in the heart of Appalachia has attracted media attention for the Gay Pride Month banner stretched across its front lawn. The local ordinary, Bishop John Stowe, has a record of collaborating with a group that rejects Catholic moral teaching, and his spokesperson says individual parishes may decide if they want to promote the homosexual cause. The rainbow banner in front of St. Paul’s parish in Lexington, Kentucky proclaims: LGBTQ+ CATHOLIC FAMILY, FRIENDS & ALLIES ALL ARE WELCOME “Making this kind of statement is a decision a spokesperson for the Diocese of Lexington says is up to each parish,” according to a  local TV news report . The parish’s pastor sent, Father Chris Clay, sent an  email  to parishioners saying the banner showcasing the symbol of the homosexual cause is a “small way of counter-acting any experiences of hostility, rejection, and silent treatment that LGBTQ Catholics may have experienced from ...

In the basement meeting room of Baltimore ’s St. Matthew Catholic Church rectory, Rachel Christian dos Passos  said  she and her "wife" long for a time when “ LGBT couples can be equal to straight couples in the eyes of the Catholic Church.”   Her "spouse," Vania Christian dos Passos, said, “We don't want the crumbs from the table.” Both want to be fully accepted into the life of the Catholic Church as practicing homosexuals. If St. Matthew pastor Fr. Joseph Muth had his way, their desire for gay “marriage” would quickly become a reality in the Catholic Church.   At a New Ways Ministry conference in November 2016, Fr. Muth proposed developing a Pre-Cana course designed specifically for gays and lesbians. He went on to say that he already meets with gay couples getting married and has directed them to “older gay couples in the parish” that can offer “the benefit of their experience.” Fr. Muth at the lesbian couple’s “wedding” reception. A...

The Jesuit priest recently  given an influential Vatican post  thinks the Church’s language in regard to homosexual acts needs to be changed. Father James Martin , editor-at-large of the Jesuit-run  America  magazine, said the Catechism of the Catholic Church ’s use of the term intrinsically disordered in regard to homosexual acts is “needlessly hurtful.” He offered “differently ordered”  as preferable, because it could express the concept “more pastorally.” Asked whether he affirmed and agreed with the Catechism’s “teaching or language” that homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered, Father Martin replied that he is not a theologian, but he “would say  some of the language used in the Catechism on that topic needs to be updated, given what we know now about homosexuality.” His response did not clarify what understanding of homosexuality he referred to, or when or how it came about. Father Martin  is a prolific public supporter of LGB...

English: The spire of St. Joseph Church in Detroit Category:Images of Detroit, Michigan (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Detroit ’s archbishop has banned a homosexual activist from making a presentation at a parish in his diocese, and the speaker, along with the church’s pastor, is using Pope Francis to object. Archbishop Allen Vigneron , who last year  weathered   criticism  for affirming that Catholics  who support homosexual marriage should not present themselves for Communion, put a stop to homosexual activist Francis DeBernardo’s planned presentation November 22 at Christ the King parish in northwest Detroit. DeBernardo, who heads up  New Ways Ministry , was going to speak for Fortunate Families, a group for Catholics whose children are in the homosexual lifestyle.

VIENNA, April 11, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - Coming only a few days after Easter, the resignation of Father Gerhard Swierzek, the pastor of a parish in the Archdiocese of Vienna , has been hailed by homosexualist activists in the Catholic Church as a victory.

Florian Stangl The Austrian Independent reported Tuesday that Fr. Swierzek has asked his superiors for another assignment.

Swierzek saying “I have a priestly conscience and I respect divine and ecclesiastical law.” He explained that he could not remain active in a parish, whose members “wanted their right at any ...

Image via Wikipedia As Catholic Charities agencies across the country are fighting government efforts to shut down their adoption services, the group’s national office in Washington has employed a firm founded by a homosexual activist to lobby for them on Capitol Hill, the Washington Blade , a homosexual newspaper, reported recently. A spokesman for Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA) confirmed to LifeSiteNews that they hired the Sheridan Group, a lobbying firm founded by Tom Sheridan.  A self-professed “gay Catholic,” Sheridan began his lobbying career with the AIDS Action Council in the 1980s, and his firm has since represented numerous AIDS advocacy groups. At the same time, the dissident New Ways Ministry , which purports to support “LGBT” Catholics, claimed to the Blade that CCUSA and some local Catholic Charities agencies have been backing them “behind-the-scenes.” “Catholic Charities in general have been the most progressive wing of the church other than the nuns,” said ...

Monsignor Vincent Foy TORONTO, Canada,  On January 12, 2010, Archbishop Raymond Burke , former Archbishop of St. Louis , Missouri, and now Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signature , gave the homily at the annual Red Mass of Saint Mary’s Basilica, Diocese of Phoenix.   He said “We see before our eyes the evil fruits of life in a society which pretends to take the place of God in making its laws and in giving its judgments, in a society in which those in power decide what is right and just, according to their desires and convenience, even at the cost of perpetrating the gravest harm upon their neighbour.” Among the evil fruits of this decadent age there is an unparalleled betrayal of homosexuals.  That evil fruit we consider here briefly, emphasizing the betrayal as the rejection of justice and charity towards a significant number of God’s sons and daughters. To reach right conclusions and point the way to undoing the betrayal it is essential to ...
