Void of Compassion, Priest Denies Lesbian Communion
I just read an article posted on Advocate.com about a catholic priest at St. John Neumann Catholic Church in Gaithersburg, Md. that denied a woman communion at her mother's funeral. He said "I cannot give you communion because you live with a woman and that is a sin according to the church."
Immediately upon reading this I became enraged. It's this priest's brand of self-righteous arrogance, his literal 'holier-than-thou' attitude that has made me an Atheist. I mean really, who do these people think they are? Do they really think they're better than other people? Is that what their god teaches them, that they've been elevated above the rest of us? What a crock of shit. I hope this priest, Father Marcel Guarnizo, experiences the kind of rejection, humiliation and emotional pain he subjected this woman to during her mother's funeral. He deserves nothing less.
