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.
