Pope Francis Reappoints Notorious Pro-LGBTQ-Priest to Major 5-Year Post

James Martin is a Jesuit priest, the editor at large @Americamag and consultor to the Dicastery for Communication @VaticanNew. He’s a very prominent American Roman Catholic known for having an outreach ministry for proud and open LGBTQ Catholics, whom Martin is fighting for full inclusion in the life of the church. In fact, it was just two months ago that martin was urging the Roman Catholic Church to start celebrating PRIDE month.

He also recently took offense after a Sioux Falls Diocese told LGBTQ students they many “not advocate, celebrate, or express same-sex attraction in such a way as to cause confusion or distraction in the context of Catholic school classes, activities, or events…” arguing that ‘‘people should be able to, and encouraged to, celebrate who they are and, more importantly, how God made them, including LGBTQ people. 

Previously Pope Francis commended his work, saying that his ministry seeks to “imitate the style of God” and that “your pastoral zeal and your ability to be close to people, with the closeness that Jesus had, and which reflects the closeness of God.”

In a new post on social media, Martin announced that Francis has reappointed him to another five-year term as the consultor for the Vatican’sVatican’s Dicastery for Communication which is the office that helps to coordinate “the communications coming from the Holy Father, the Holy See and the Vatican in general.”

And people wonder why we don’t believe the Pope when it comes to same sex marriage. Actions speaker louder than words, and the decrepit Pontiff’s habit of doing one thing and saying another is all but shouting at this point.
