Vatican Defrocks and Excommunicates Australian Priest Over Support for Gays and Women
An Australian priest who founded Inclusive Catholics has been given his marching orders by the Vatican, under Pope Francis, The Age reports:
Dissident
priest Greg Reynolds has been both defrocked and excommunicated over
his support for women priests and gays - the first person ever
excommunicated in Melbourne, he believes.
The order comes direct from the Vatican,
not at the request of Melbourne Archbishop Denis Hart, and apparently
follows a secret denunciation in the best traditions of the inquisition,
according to Father Reynolds.
The excommunication document - written in
Latin and giving no reason - was dated May 31, meaning it comes under
the authority of Pope Francis who made headlines on Thursday calling for
a less rule-obsessed church.
Said Reynolds:
''I've come to this position because I've followed my conscience on women's ordination and gay marriage.''
Instead, I decided to play the *wait and see* card, and sure enough, this vile, duplicitous, purveyor of lies that everyone has praised for his supposed spirit of reconciliation, has done exactly the complete opposite of what he said he stood for.
In my eye's, saying one thing and doing another is called lying and I certainly have seen enough of that coming from just about every major so called Christian organization.
Remember this, the next time your all so ready to kneel and kiss this assholes ring for the deceitful crumbs he pretends to offer no matter how humble and sincere he pretends too be.
