Not surprisingly, pro-homosexual Jesuit priest Fr. James Martin praised Massingale for his article. “This article is a great resource for pastors and parishioners hoping to take the first steps in reaching out to #LGBTQ Catholics,” Martin tweeted.<\

No problem. At least there’s someone(2) with something to offer. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

This is heresy and any other Pope would defrock this priest.

That’s funny. Over 50 years ago when I first got married, my wife used a douche solution call “Massingale” or something very similar.

"..Fr. Bryan Massingale also said that being a Catholic parish means offering ‘extravagant welcome’ to ‘LGBTQ persons..." Back in the day in my southside Chicago Irish Catholic neighborhood they would have gotten an "extravagant welcome" all right.😎

Your old church in Chicago is no longer here. The RC Church now is a rowdy speak easy, thanks to Vatican II and Roncalli, the Bolshevik pope. Now we have a Socialist in charge. We are doomed.

I wasn’t Catholic but had lace curtain Irish buddies (the Shanty Irish were both of our enemies). It was St. Sabinas parish as ministered now and forever by one Michael Pfleger, the worst priest in the world.

What south side parish St Galls ? St Bridget ? Or the one on 55th (Garfield Blvd) street where Pflager is now pastor of the church mentioned in the “We’re The Southside Irish” song

There’s always room on the floor of Hell for one more clergyman’s skull.

IIR, you are a RC.

Simple question for you: Is this priest a Catholic?

Now, two rhetorical questions:
If so, what is the official position of the RCC on same sex marriage?

If not, when will he be excused from service to that church?

Homosexual people are people doing something wrong, no matter how goofy priests try to bend it.

The Torah is perfect. It prescribes capital punishment for blatant, public, defiant perversion. Death follows hard after those people, or those societies who defy the Biblical sex ethic. If the Catholic Church can no longer defend its own historical dogma on this issue, I have it on good authority that it will be destroyed. Read Mathew 5:17-19.
