Their demand: they want to be the only sinners in the cathedral who exult in their sins rather than repent them.

They seem to be unclear on the concept of why the cathedral exists in the first place.

Per Archbishop Charles J Chaput:

We make a very serious mistake if we rely on media like the New York Times, Newsweek, CNN, or MSNBC for reliable news about religion. These news media simply don’t provide trustworthy information about religious faith—and sometimes they can’t provide it, either because of limited resources or because of their own editorial prejudices. These are secular operations focused on making a profit. They have very little sympathy for the Catholic faith, and quite a lot of aggressive skepticism toward any religious community that claims to preach and teach God’s truth.

What is the difference between the grubby hands of these malcontents and the bloody hands of the demon worshipper biden whom the cardinal invited for “coffee and communion”?

The cardinal seems able to stand up against the vermin who are relatively powerless, but can’t seem to stand up against the infinitely-dirtier but dramatically more powerful biden.

You hit the nail on the head.....

They want to celebrate their sin inside the church, not repent it....

Sounds like they got the attention they were seeking. We’re ALL called to lead chaste lives. The Church isn’t asking anything of homosexuals that it isn’t asking of every other Catholic: To honor marriage between one man and one woman and to be chaste within and outside of marriage. Pretty simple concept really.

Good point.

The problem is not that he stood up to these creeps.

The problem is that he doesn't stand up to creeps in political office.

So, in other words, even though they supposedly go to confession it seems these men are practicing homosexuals that flaunt their sins. I guess they don’t understand “go and sin no more”. I’m sure they would have gone to communion. For them to expect a priest to put the Eucharist into dirty hands is another abomination.

Shouldn’t they just join a church that has their beliefs. The Cardinal couldn’t/doesn’t make any changes in the Catholic Doctrine.

Funny they have no interest in protesting at mosques, but when the muslims take over they will come after gays of all religions.

I guess the church has to accept the whole lgbt perversion. By what justification does anyone have to be bisexual? And transgenderism is an illness.

“Technically they have more than just dirty hands.”

I think now of the scripture:

“They ‘strut’ their evil before you”....

It is interesting they themselves recognize they are unclean.

It isn't clear whether this happened yesterday or earlier.

The first reading on May 5 was from Acts 15. In verse 29 the word porneia (fornication) is mentioned among the particular prohibitions the new Gentile converts are being warned about...unfortunately the new translation obscures what the text says. I forget the exact wording but it was something like "irregular marriages."

Jewish morality was much stricter than Greco-Roman morality, so it is understandable that the converts would be admonished to avoid prostitutes (their pagan neighbors probably saw nothing wrong in going to brothels).
