@georgetakei we need more liberal priests to speak out. The conservative so called priests are bigots and misogynists and liars.

@georgetakei the Catholic church doesn't pass laws in sync with the Constitution.

@georgetakei Some of the comments on that. Sheesh. Some people get really pissy if you remind them that there are literally thousands of different versions of the divine and different rituals/legal contracts for adult partnerships. Some of those partnership contracts predate the Bible, FFS.

Of course, Biblical literalists will also argue that the KJV (and only the KJV--none of those gnostic gospels) is magically correct about everything. Sigh...

@georgetakei Fr. James Martin is one of the good ones.

To hell (very literally) with these people who think that other human beings don’t have any rights that they and THEIR religion don’t agree with.

@georgetakei The Catholic Church keeps shooting itself in the foot. No wonder people are leaving the church.
