Jesuit Priest "Comes Out" as Gay During Sunday Mass at Catholic University Parish

University has dedicated this year's Ignatian week to race and "diversity"

Surprise! Well not really. As the article states, "...suspicions on campus related to Fr. Brennan's homosexuality may have been due to his having written a chapter in the book "Jesuit Postmodern" which was entitled "A Tale of Two Comings Out: Priest and Gay on a Catholic Campus."

Gee, you think? Forget for a moment that any sexuality being expressed by a Priest is wrong and a violation of their vows. And forget for a moment that Homosexuality is defined by the Church as "intrinsically disordered." And put aside that the Priest wasn't announcing that he was going into counseling or getting treatment. Okay, you weren't able to forget it.

The whole story is sad. It's one thing to have a weakness towards sin. It's another to stand in front of 400 students who along with their parents may have had some desire to attend a Catholic college. These particular students were, after all, attending Holy Mass.

This college apparently has decided that the new religion is secular progressive humanism as shown by their dedicating a week to "race and diversity" that was supposed to celebrate St. Ignacious and the past members of the order he founded.

I wonder what takes more courage these days, to come out as a homosexual priest or as a faithful one? Search the St. Joe website for evidence and you'll reach the inescapable conclusion that this has become a homosexualized campus. In different times, this Priest would be removed and possibly laicized. Here, they'll probably move to canonize him.

And there's the usual disclaimer from the Bishop, "The Archdiocese of Philadelphia also did not respond to a request for comment." Probably too busy balancing the finances after the many settlements of claims against homosexual priests.
