The priest could've been a little more helpful IMO. He could have shown her the way--to the closet. Maybe put a little sign over it: 'This closet is for all you damn dirty homo sodomite scum buckets'. The homo's wouldn't understand it so under it there would need to be another sign: 'You're going to burn in hell you filth'.
Maybe a few will get the message.
If YOU 'get' it, you can thank me now.

Grantbo's Misadventures <<< 40 stories of when Grantbo's life went horribly wrong
Just when I was starting to have a little respect for the Catholic Church, they go back to punishing people who do the right thing.
This wasn't a Christian who chooses to live as a lesbian who walked up for communion. This is a BUDDHIST who thought that it would be cool to participate in the ceremony.
Taking communion is supposed to be a big thing in the Catholic Church. You are supposed to confess all your sins before you take communion. If you have sinned since your last confession, your supposed to not take communion that week. At least this is what the nuns taught back in my Catholic School days.
There is no way, under the Catholic tradition of giving communion, that this woman qualified to receive it. She's a non Catholic who is living in sin, therefore she has no right to communion.
I wouldn't demand that a Buddhist be forced to bend their rules for me. What right does she have to force a Church that she doesn't belong to, to bend their rules to suit her?
This is another perfect learning example of what is happening and has been happening to the Church .... The Church is only protected from Teaching Error . She is run by sinners like you and I .. Since Judas there has been those who's goal it is to bring Her down.
As those of us who have been awakened to the political and have tried to awaken others ..so too have we also had this war in the Church .... We were on forums just like this battling with the liberal Catholics in 98.
None of this is a surprise to some of us.... The Blessed Mother told us all this would pass in the Blue Book of the MMP to Fr Gobbi.
It sometimes amazes me here ... That some of you accept the prophetic word of a human .... But when Jesus sends His Mother to us to warn us .. all kinds of vile things spew from your fingers ...... See how evil works ?
...And you will see more and more of this stuff in the coming days. it BEGS the question to prompt the hand of government intrusion and media meddling, which I've no doubt was the want and desire.
Everyone who puts their lips to that Blessed Sacrement is a Sinner, to include the Priest that confects it in the name of Jesus.
I'm really sure, based on that alone, that there has been more than seven gay's, put lips to Chalice in my Parish. None were attempting to do so for politics and attention.
The real reason they pulled the Priest was to attempt to keep it from being all about him, is my wager here. Just saying.
The cup is not to gain Salvation, but it IS the flesh and blood, because he said it was, and while the Priest WASN'T making presumptions as to who sinned where, for someone to attempt to do what she did, no matter the issue driving her attempt? I'd pour it into the Burse before I allowed her to even touch that Chalice.
"You Can't MAKE this stuff up."
They cast their silver into the streets, and their gold is like an unclean thing. Their silver and gold are not able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They cannot satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it. For it was the stumbling block of their iniquity.
Ezekiel 7:19
The priest did not get suspended for the incident with Ms Johnson. He was supended.because of personnel issues...now, whetjer these surfaced as a result of the brouhaha over the funeral, or were simmering before hand, I don't know. But it seems as if the timing is not good. And yes, there are those who will make hay out of it, regardless of what the truth of the matter is.

"For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but, following their own desires will surround themselves with teachers who tickle their ears. They will stop listening to the truth and wander off to fables." (2 Timothy 4:3-4).
why should the church change its moral teaching to accept a practicing lesbian
