  Michael-In-Norfolk - - Coming Out In Mid Life — Authority: 149
  I recently did a post about a new organization called ChurchOuting .org which seeks to "out" closeted Roman Catholic priests who participate in the Catholic Churchs jihad against LGBT citizens and same sex marriage in particular.

• Video: Pro-Abort Catholic Chris Matthews Ambushes Bishop Tobin On Abortion And Law

  
  theblogprof — Authority: 679
  Just what is it with pro-abort Catholics? Why stay in a church that is antithesis to ones beliefs? Why do the Kennedys stay in a church that clearly states abortion is murder when they themselves push abortion as being no different than brushing your teeth? Now I do understand that to a large extent the Catholic ...

  The Freethinker — Authority: 521
  POPES are a rum old  bunch … but we guess you knew that already.

The late Pope John Paul ...

  Gloria's Oversexed Mind — Authority: 486

• Will Catholic Bishops Start Denying Communion to Gay Marriage Supporters?

  
  Michael-In-Norfolk - - Coming Out In Mid Life — Authority: 149
  The leadership of Roman Catholic Church seems in some ways Hell bent to turn the Church into a mirror image of the whacky far right evangelical Christians who obsess over three issues to the exclusion of all else: abortion, stem cell research and, of course, demonizing the gays. The long history of a social ministry ...

  Chris Matthews, like a broken clock, can be right twice a day too. Watch as he takes on Bishop Tobin, who Patrick Kennedy says barred him from taking communion due to his pro-choice stance.
