Boston’s Cardinal Sean O’Malley has forbidden a speaking appearance by a dissident Austrian priest at a local parish.

Father Helmut Schüller, the leader of the Austrian Priests’ Initiative, was scheduled to speak in July at St. Susanna’s parish church in Dedham, a Boston suburb. Father Schüller is making a tour of the US, speaking in several cities about the Austrian group, which brought together several hundred Austrian priests in a “Call to Disobedience,” a vow to ignore Church teachings on several controversial issues.

Tour Dates

I know St. Susana’s Church in Dedham. It has very contemporary architecture.

It looks like the tour will be at First Church in Dedham instead. It features very traditional architecture but is a Unitarian Universalist Church.

Probably more to the “priest’s” liking, doctrinally, anyway.

“In a nutshell,” the usual disputandi: the deconstruction of sex, gender, Matrimony and Holy Orders.

[ArrogantBustard]

1) Acceptance of faggotry

2) “Ordination” of women

3) Sharing Holy Communion with those who do not believe the Catholic Faith.

You put it much more gracefully than I

[A.A. Cunningham]

Defiance of Church teaching on homosexuality, intercommunion, ordination of women, celibacy, divorce and remarriage, etc.

Helmut Schuller is a protestant masquerading as a Catholic Priest.

[A.A. Cunningham]

A list of the usual suspects bankrolling Schuller's "tour":

Call to Action, Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good, CORPUS, DignityUSA, FutureChurch, National Coalition of Nuns, New Ways Ministry, Voice of the Faithful, Quixote Center, and Women's Ordination Conference.

[ArrogantBustard]

If Schuller wishes to commune with the like-minded, The Episcopal Church would be a better fit.

This guy says that the answer to the homosexuality scandal is “greater acceptance of homosexuality.”

I doubt if any self respecting prostitute would want any one to think they were a catholic priest. so he must just be a typical paid cleric, he is going where the money is.
