Worse than Germany: Bishop John Stowe of Kentucky, USA, compared the founders of the homosexual group ‘New Ways Ministry’ - which promotes homosexual “marriage” and “gender transitions” - to St. Paul, St. Francis of Assisi, Mother Teresa, and other Catholic figures. In a May 21 podcast the prelate said that the "Holy Spirit" might do something new:
“Isn't this what Francis of Assisi experienced when his exuberance of spirit moved him to renounce the materialism and status that had defined his life and to embrace the outcast and the lepers? The Holy Spirit empowered him to discern how to rebuild the church by fidelity to the gospel and inclusion of the poor.
Isn't this what Paul of Tarsus experienced when he saw no reason to exclude the Gentiles from this universal community?
[…]
Isn't this opening of windows and doors what the founding leaders and supporters of 'New Way's Ministry' were doing as they embrace those wounded by rejection because of their sexual orientation?
Since the beginning of his pontificate, Pope Francis made his embrace wide and inclusive.
He worried about the church becoming sick because of confinement in a stuffy atmosphere.
He led us towards a new Pentecost, a new birth, where, empowered by the Holy Spirit, we would speak new languages, reach out warmly to those the Church has ignored, and break down barriers.”
