Have you heard the shocking story out of San Francisco, two gay men dressed as nuns are given communion ?

Question

This story seems to be hushed in the San Francisco area and everywhere.

I only caught the ending of the story on the Bill O'Reilly show last night.

Gay activists in San Francisco are caught on tape mocking the Catholic Church... right there inside a church!

Do you know of a website to read more on this?

There is no mention of this on any online San Francisco newspaper.

I found this very disrespectful and disgusting.....whether it happened in a Catholic Church or in any place of any worship.

Answer 1

First, how is catholic church preaching hate? They can't marry gays? Did they say they are not allowed to take communion as long as they are Catholic they can and as long as they aren't mocking nuns they would be welcomed. Gays can attend church, they can participate. Just like divorced people they can participate too - they just can't get married again in the Catholic church. Everyone has a right. Gays have their right. and so does the Catholic church have a right (to their religous belief). As far as I know Catholic churches don't have hell houses and I will be very disappointed to hear if they do have them. However, other Christian churches that have hell houses have their right to have them too - unless they are going to gay peoples houses and having them? as far as I know they aren't doing that. The hell houses are displaying sins....homosexuality is a sin according to the bible. I have never been to one so I can only speak from what I hear. But how about this - Everyone - don't infringe upon anybodies rights(churches and gays, etc.) - and each individual get right with God first. The church is a holy place - respect it as such - if you cannot do that then do not attend: gay or not. I wonder if they did this in a Muslim country and tried to get into their mosques what would be done to them? The actions are disrespectful. However, it seems in America it's ok to be disrespectful to one another.

Answer 2

Christians are suppose to be about forgiveness. Why is Bill o'reilly saying that this bishop should condemn this behavior more when he already has in his own way? The Bishop all ready said he is sorry for allowing them to receive Communion. That is the Catholic way of condemning something, just as divorced individuals can't receive Communion. I see no reason to drag this out and spread hate, I'm sure the members of that church are fully aware of the situation, and they can deal with it themselves because it is their community, not everyone else's.

Answer 3

That "Hell House" is set up on public property. I've never been in one so I hope YOU enjoyed the entertainment. Anyway, homosexuals are allowed to mock whoever they want on public land and property. However for any organization to come into another for the sole purpose of disrupting is wrong, and the church can be press charges against them. The same would be true if a bunch of zealous Christian went into a LGT place that was holding a meeting in their building.

Now tell me again how a secular society would be run fairly.

Answer 4

Just last week there was an article I was reading about the gay parade in San Francisco...and the story and the pictures from it were absolutely awful. The mainstream media did NOT cover this gay parade at all. Follow the link but be prepared to be totally shocked.

Answer 5

I watched the video on this.....

I was not really angry or even appalled so much as saddened. Saddened that these men do not know or understand the salvation that is right in front of them in the form of Jesus Christ. We need to pray for people like this, and specifically for the scales to fall from their eyes, to see and know the true God.

My impression from watching the video was that they may have been trying to provoke a reaction from either the officiating priest or the congregation, or both, but nobody was buying into it. I agree with the priest, who's stance is that it is up to the person standing in line to make sure that they are fit to receive the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. It's really not up to him to be a "gatekeeper" - we must as individuals examine our own consciences before we receive.

Lest anyone think that these two men are somehow getting away with something, rest assured that they aren't. They will face the Final Judgment along with the rest of us, and this little scene will be played back to them on that day.

Answer 6

If the two men were trying to pick a fight with the catholic Church by showihng up in drag hoping to be denied the Eucharist, then the Catholic Church was not going to play their game.

All the men accomplished was making themselves look childish.

Answer 7

I heard them advertise it on Fox News. My mouth dropped. It's disgusting and the bishop needs to have a chit chat with the Pope. Sacrelige at it's worst I tell ya!! What's going on with our Church????!!!!!! Catholics need to demand justice from and for the Church. If the higher ups won't clean up we sure as heck should.

Here's the video clip.

Answer 8

Yes, The Catholic Church is in an uproar about this and especially against this Bishop. Everybody wants the Pope to pull his license (kind of) This is pure evil and sin---San Fransisco---what a dive anymore!

Answer 9

+PAX

It is blasphemy and against Church Law. As a Benedictine I find it personally offensive.

The priest and Bishop involved should be taken to task immediately by Rome.

In humility,

I was shocked! I do not know what to say but this: [Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, they know not what they do."] They divided his garments by casting lots (Luke 23:34).
