Rembert's Boy Massingale

Although Rembert Weakland ordained this heretic, both the Major and Minor seminary rectors are responsible--perhaps even MORE responsible--for this racist travesty.

Fr. Bryan Massingale is a leading voice in the mission of dismantling homophobic and racist elements of the institutional Catholic Church.

Massingale, who is the James and Nancy Buckman Professor of Theological and Social Ethics at Fordham University, is a Black Catholic priest who has publicly come out as gay. He was ordained in 1983...

Jesuit school.  Yesterday we asked the question "Jesuit or Catholic?"  Now you know why.

...“‘I’m not going to let the church’s racism rob me of my relationship with God. . .I see it as my mission to make the church what it says it is: more universal and the institution that I believe Jesus wants it to be.'”

Massingale’s message is aligned with Pope Francis’ call for “compassionate pastoral care for LGBTQ Catholics.” However, Massingale seeks to push further. He envisions a church where “Catholics enjoy the same privileges regardless of sexual orientation.” He also supports the ordination of women and optional celibacy for Catholic clergy....

Yadayada blah blah Spirit of Vatican Two.  But there's more!!

...“My dream wedding would be either two men or two women standing before the church; marrying each other as an act of faith and I can be there as the official witness to say: ‘Yes, this is of God,'” he said after a recent class at Fordham. “If they were Black, that would be wonderful.”...

Note that although such stuff is just fine and dandy with various flavors of Episcopalians and Lut'rans--also Methodists--Massingale won't leave the Church.

There's too much money in it.

Pray for the salvation of his soul.  Fifty Rosaries a day from 10,000 people might do it.

The Catholic Church is racist? Then whyvdobwe have so many priests who are not white?

Those who disagree with him are the "black/brown/yellow/purple with pink polka dots faces of white supremacy".

Actually, I'd ask the intercession of St. Charles Lwanga and his companions.
