Poor befuddled heretical Fr. James Martin is the victim of those bullies at Church Militant who pointed out his heretical speech and got the wheels turning for numerous speaking engagements to be terminated. *woohoo*
Fr. James Martin has for years been a cheerleader for gay causes, particularly gay marriage,
Quote: "Referring to an active homosexual friend in a same-sex marriage, Martin said, "I have a hard time imagining how even the most traditionalist, homophobic, closed-minded Catholic cannot look at my friend and say, 'That is a loving act, and that is a form of love that I don't understand but I have to reverence.'" [Youtube video of Fr. Martin praising his friends gay "marriage" and the need to "reverence" that relationship: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=55&v=GHpKah-Kx-A ]
...even though the Catholic Church is crystal clear that NO Catholic can EVER support gay unions (no such thing as a gay "marriage" regardless of what society says).
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, 141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." 142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.While Fr. James Martin supports gay pride parades and tells Catholic they must have "reverence" for gay marriages, Christ's Holy Catholic Church says otherwise. Both cannot be correct.
Church Militant has pointed out this obvious basic fact on numerous occasions and finally people are demanding their Catholic institutes stop inviting clergy who speak heresy.
And of course, that has Fr. Martin playing the victim on social media as his ignorant groupies swoon and rage at the injustice of it all! Quick, open up more safe spaces with coloring books, bubbles and puppies, lots and lots of puppies!
Most of the people commenting seem to be confused Catholics who don't know the Church's teaching on homosexual unions or Catholics who reject Church teaching in favor of following Fr. Martin on his bridge to Hell.
Like "BroMark"...
But then you get others like Amy Athene who from her Twitter page appears to be indicating she is of the Jewish faith...
...yet she says this...
The hatred is not coming from Church Militant for speaking the authentic truth of the Catholic Faith. Rather, the hatred is coming from Fr. James Martin who is speaking with the serpent's tongue leading people out of the Truth and along his bridge to Hell.
In Christ,

Reading Martin's comments is nauseating, what pompous, self-righteous, self-pitying blather. It doesn't really even matter, if these whiners believe their own propaganda or not, we don't even care anymore. The formal church, as far as we can see, has given itself over to the homosexualist agenda. It is a battle in which those in the traditionalist camp are far outnumbered at this point, although the "know nothings" have not weighed in. This would be the mainstream Catholic in the pew. They didn't even know a war was going on, but they may hear some of the cannons now, and they will have to make a choice. I do not feel optimistic! The mainstream Catholic has apparently, to the tune of over 60%, said they approve of homosexuality, so let's not assume we have friends here. God could certainly wake them up so they will see rightly, but for my part, I will assume that things will pretty much continue as they are, spiraling the crapper, and our bishops and Cardinals will continue to support, vehemently, two things, one, that every muslim from every third world hellhole should now live in the West, so as to be free to accompany Christians to their graves, and, that all moral order is to be abandoned, and replaced with their diabolical concept of the moral order.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the rant, but if I'm to be painted as a homophobic hater by members of the Roman Catholic clergy now, I might as well live up to it. A pox on these men. May God deliver us from them soon!
Greetings in Christ Kathleen! I think your comments are spot on. This is the Catholic Church today and it doesn't look like its going to get better any time soon- unless we have some Divine Intervention from above.
ReplyDeleteAbout the Muslims and our Church...I'd like to suggest reading this:
