As a Catholic I have pushed back many times against the misogynist old men in costumes, many of whom are hypocrites and worse. Fortunately the priest who is our pastor preaches the teachings of Jesus without judging. For example, yesterday hundreds of our impoverished brothers and sisters were treated to a food fest from 1-5 in poverty stricken downtown Hartford. Do you think Cordileone would do the same for the homeless in SF?!? I do not!

As a former Catholic, I AM LIVID! This institution keeps proving itself to be unworthy. Let those without sin cast the first stone... Padre was arrested for a DUI in 2012. He also was complicit in shielding pedophile priests. AND to quote John Pavlovitz...

"If everyone with “unrepentant sin” was excluded from communion this Sunday, every table would be empty, including the clergy. That’s not how this works. Someone else’s moral worthiness before God is above your pay grade, outside of your jurisdiction, and none of your business. You get to set the table, you don’t get to police it."
