GAY TRUTH

The Church’s position on homosexuality should definitely be that of mercy and pastoral care. But true mercy and pastoral care based on the loving concern for the wellbeing of those experiencing same-sex attraction. It is not loved or mercy to allow your children to rampantly misbehave without correcting them.  Parents will admit that it is often easier to turn the other way and purposely fail to notice misbehavior.  But out of love and mercy, parents must correct and discipline their children for the good of the children themselves. So too the Church, especially Her shepherds – the fathers of souls – must feed the flock, must teach the truths however difficult and politically incorrect.  That is true mercy and pastoral care. Silence on the hard truths of homosexuality was specifically warned against by the Vatican. Pope Emeritus Benedict, while he headed up the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, made a public statement directed to the Bishops of the ...

Attorneys from the nonprofit Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) are asking the state of New York to stop singling out and punishing a Christian adoption agency because of its religious beliefs. In an interview, ADF attorney Jeana Hallock said at today’s hearing before Judge Mae A. D’Agostino, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York heard the appeal by New Hope Family Services for a preliminary injunction against the state of New York. According to Hallock, D’Agostino expects to issue a ruling soon on that request and also a request for dismissal issued by attorneys for New York. According to ADF, New York’s Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) is threatening to shut down New Hope Family Services because of the religious nonprofit’s policy of prioritizing the placement of children for adoption in homes with a married mother and father. In a lawsuit against the state, New Hope asked a federal court in December to stop OCFS from targeting New Hope so that ...

A Venezuelan cardinal has correctly underscored that homosexuality is the main “problem” that should be discussed in this week’s Vatican summit on clerical sexual misconduct with minors. In a statement released to the  National Catholic Register , Cardinal Jorge Urosa Savino, the Archbishop of Caracas, stated that 80 percent of abuse victims were male.  “ ... It is important to address also the problem of the sexual abuse itself, which is a sinful transgression of God’s law, and a failure to observe and to live the virtue of chastity consecrated to Our Lord, broken by immoral and criminal sexual activity,” the cardinal wrote.   “It is necessary also to face the problem of homosexuality in most clergy and religious, as many studies show that about 80 percent of the abuse has affected male minors,” he continued. “The large number of accusations of sexual abuse also indicates a decline or fall in necessary high standards of moral life in those individuals in both...

Having fallen foul of LGBTQ advocates, famed tennis star and openly lesbian Martina Navratilova was officially removed from the advisory board of a major LGBTQ organization because of comments she made about so-called transgenders. Navratilova released an op-ed in  The Sunday Times  on Feb. 17 where she wrote that “transgender” athletes should not be allowed to compete against biologically female athletes. She wrote that it is unfair for men to compete as women because of their innate physical advantage over biologically female athletes. Navratilova is widely considered the best female tennis player in history, having won Wimbledon nine times and 18 Grand Slam titles. Her article, titled “The rules on trans athletes reward cheats and punish the innocent,” started by saying, “Letting men compete as women simply if they change their name and take hormones is unfair — no matter how those athletes may throw their weight around.” This came in response to condemnations from...

When news broke that openly homosexual Empire star Jussie Smollett was attacked in the Democrat-owned and operated city of Chicago by two white men shouting pro-Trump slogans, I had my doubts. I always find it helpful in these situations to ask, “who benefits?” Turns out those instincts were right. Smollett’s tale has turned out to be an elaborate fabrication . "Fake news!" as President Trump likes to say. One has to wonder how many other stories the media feeds us that are pure fiction. When I first read the headlines, I had no clue who this fellow was. Probably because I don’t watch a lot of television (maybe a half-hour of Tucker Carlson once in a while). Most of my free time is spent eating with friends or at the nearby adoration chapel (there are no occasions of sin when you “watch” the Body of Christ). Regrettably, most Americans spend too many hours in front of their televisions, or, as a priest I know calls it, “the devil’s tabernacle.” Several years ago, I was teach...

The 'homophobic,' pro-Trump assault of openly-homosexual Jussie Smollett that gripped the mainstream media never happened, according to Chicago police and prosecutors who are charging the Empire actor with staging the incident for publicity and career advancement. The 36-year-old actor says he was assaulted in Chicago on January 29, when two masked men allegedly shouted racial and 'homophobic' epithets, beat him to the point of fracturing a rib, put a rope around his neck, and poured bleach on him. “This is MAGA country,” they allegedly yelled, a reference to President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan. Numerous Democrats, liberal media figures, and Smollett himself aggressively pushed the narrative that the incident was part of a wave of hate inspired by the president. But critics immediately questioned the likelihood of violent Trump supporters roaming around the streets of strongly-Democratic Chicago, suspicions that intensified after police failed t...

A “transgender” actor caused a stir on Twitter over the past week with a series of tweets taking the “gender fluidity” mindset to a new extreme: that even male sex organs are “biologically female” if a gender-confused man thinks he’s a woman. Indya Moore is an actor on the FX series Pose, a drama set in late-1980s New York that incorporates transgender themes. A male described in the mainstream press as an “actress” who identifies as “a biological non-binary,” Breitbart reports that Moore claimed on February 17 that if a “woman has a penis, her penis is a biologically female penis.” Follow-ups and argument ensued over the next several days.
