:-D
Guys, wait until my Geocities bandwidth resets. I made a picture and attached it to the bottom of the article. It’s sort of funny. :-D
Let’s imagine this with another religion:
The f*gs, er, I mean gay men dress up in burkas and go to a mosque to mock islam.
The result would be entertaining. And unlike with the Christian church, political authorities would be outraged and would seek to prosecute what was left of the militant qu**rs.
After his lies and efforts to smear FR with his false attacks, I don’t really care what Bill O’Reilly fakes outrage about.
Bill is as disgusting and immoral as the outrages that he promotes on his show.
Of course -- he's too busy fellating microphones.
Good ol’ Bill really goes ape over anything involving the Catholic Church. That’s really his only link to conservatism.
What the HELL would a District Attorney DO??? This is a CHURCH matter, and I’m POSITIVE that GOD did NOT like the MOCKING SACRILEGIOUS taking of Holy Communion!!!
Special punishments in Hell await those two who defiled the service and the Church...
O'Reilly has it wrong. The church has to take a stand on issues like this and not be afraid to "offend" those who might be offended but could care less, in any event. And if a priest or anyone distributing communion is unwilling to refuse the sacrament when the person receiving it is committing deliberate sacrilege in front of the priest, then the priest should reconsider the vows he took. Committing to being PC, I don't believe, is one of them.
O’Reilly has this story all wrong. The real story is that Archbishop Niederauer has been tolerating a totally gay “Catholic” parish, which was created by his predecessor Abp. Quinn about 25 years ago by sending a “gay-friendly” priest to be pastor. The parish’s total capitulation to the gay culture was tolerated by Abp. Levada through his entire term in San Francisco. The Sister of Perpetual Indulgence held their regular meetings in the parish facilities for years. If these two “sisters” were protesting anything, it was the fact that Niederauer ordered them out of the parish facilities a few months ago—only after a lot of embarrassing hell-raising by a group of orthodox Catholics.
The real story is Niederauer’s refusal, along with the majority of U.S. bishops, to obey Canon 915 (and explicit statements by the current Pope). Canon 915 says that notorious public sinners are to be refused Communion.
To be fair to Niederauer—no one distributing Communion should refuse Communion on the spot. Notorious public sinners are to be warned, and reasoned with, before Communion is refused. The real scandal is not that he gave these two Communion, but that he has been tolerating such things as Holy Redeemer’s having a float in the Gay Pride Parade each year, including 2007. Video is available online showing the float in the parade, just a couple of months ago, preceded and followed by ranks of totally naked men and women.
There is probably no practical solution to a TOXIC PARISH like Holy Redeemer except to shut it down for a year or so, let the good Catholics go elsewhere for awhile and the misguided Catholics disperse, and then send in a CATHOLIC priest as pastor to re-open the church. In the case of Holy Redeemer, which is in the center of the Castro District, the parish would probably go bankrupt if it were to have Catholic priest as pastor, so there would be little point to re-opening it, ever.
Feel bad for the faithful Catholics in service that day: These people (the gays) are NUTS!

This is the real story of Holy Redeemer Gay Catholic Church, with links to other sites with video of the pastor throwing holy water on the church’s float in the Gay Pride parade this year.
Please don’t post Bill whatshisname here until he hires a professional moderator to review his opinions.
Everyone needs to pray for them. They don’t realize what they’ve done to themselves by mocking.
Watch the video, the parishioners do seem bothered. The Bishop is OK with it. If the Church is OK with it then those, at the church who are not OK with this, need to let the powers that be (within the church) know that they are outraged.
The Bishops age or being 'caught off guard' are secondary. The two 'nuns' should have never been allowed in and should have been removed.
Yes, these idiots committed sacrilege and are disgusting, but what crime was committed that would require the DA's involvement?
I don’t know why you say “unbelievable.” Seems pretty normal for San Francisco.
San Francisco???
HA!!
Not outrageous.
...impossible.
After seeing the pix of the vendor selling the Baby Jesus butt plug, and the naked masturbators walking around in front of SF police, and the blow jobs on public streets with children around, I am convinced that if G-d wanted to start his judgment, He would start with SF. Las Vegas would be a distant second.
