Bombshell: Boston Parish Promotes Transgender “Rights” and Men Accessing Women’s Bathrooms
Boston Catholic Insider ^ | 10/25/18

Posted on 10/30/2018 6:53:22 PM PDT by marshmallow

Just when we thought we’d seen it all, a Boston Archdiocesan parish led by a “gay-friendly’ pastor has done something worse than we could have imagined. The “gay-friendly” pastor at St. Ignatius of Loyola in Chestnut Hill — welcomed by Cardinal O’Malley to the parish in 2016 despite his published history of leading a “gay-friendly” parish in New York City — has a full-page propaganda letter in their parish bulletin touting the parish administrator’s story as a transgender person and urging parishioners to vote “Yes” on the upcoming “Bathroom Bill” ballot question.

A “Yes” means the existing law stands that allows transgender people to use whatever bathroom they please. A “No” means the law would be repealed, restoring safety and sanity to the Commonwealth by simply saying that people should use the restroom of their biological gender, as it’s been for the nearly 200 years since there have been public restrooms.

I think the church may have given up. They don’t even seem to be trying to support traditional morality.

If churches or synagogues, or any religious institutions who have tax exempt status become political activists, they should lose their tax exempt status immediately. In my opinion, every Catholic who disagrees with having their church used as a tool to push a political agenda should send a message to their pastor, the diocese, their bishop and archbishop, and the vatican, stating that they will withhold all donations until the church stops pushing a political agenda. The church is rotting from within.

Bombshell?!?!?!

It’s the reaping in the whirlwind what Roman Catholicism has sown in the wind.

Anyone with a lick of discernment could have seen it coming.

Yep, that’s us. You figured it out. But wait, doesn’t the Protestant religion have its own issues with sex abuse? Maybe you should take that plank out of your own eye.

Not good news for a Catholic parish.

A few years back at my church I saw a middle-aged man dressed like a church lady - pearls, frumpy dress, sensible pumps.

A silly girl in a mini-skirt or a lesbian wearing Carhartts is more of a church lady that that poor fool will ever be.

FWIW.

This IS a parish—but fairly new for the Boston area-——it is on the Boston College campus and run by Jesuits——they have always been a bit different.

I’m surprised the article doesn’t mention that it is the church Boston College grounds.

I remember when it was built——right on Commonwealth Ave on BC grounds——maybe somewhere they carved out the acreage and made it city property.

We always called it the BC church.

Remove the faggot. Very likely the queer has some scandal which will turn up and cost the diocese a bundle.

Satan has become a trusted elder in many churches...

Last week, Larry Elder discussed a kindergarten girl in Georgia, 5-years-old, accosted in a restroom at school by a boy who had been given access to the girls’ restroom because he identifies as a girl.
