Priest blasts 'gay' colleagues

Father James Haley of the Diocese of Arlington, Va., the whistle-blower priest whose story has been featured in the Washington Times, is once again speaking out.

It's really quite good and you can read it here.

Father John Trigilio, Jr., PhD, ThD, president of the Confraternity of Catholic Clergy and co-author of Catholicism For Dummies, provided Renew America with a statement, which is an expansion and variation of an op-ed he recently wrote for the New York Daily News.

"If theologians and liturgists could misbehave, then why not married couples with regard to contraception? If the laity could [misbehave] that way, then why not the clergy? Sexual misbehavior in seminaries usually coincides with heterodox teaching in the classroom and liturgical abuse in the chapel."
...
Faculty members who dissent from the Magisterium need to be removed.
Not only should this apply to seminary faculty members, but to all clerics, regardless whether he be a deacon, priest or bishop.
