Major Catholic Leader Who Has Been Appointed To Be Cardinal By Pope Francis Declares: ‘All Christians Must Watch Homosexual Film Brokeback Mountain, Read Homosexual Novels, And Live With Homosexuals. He Also Declares That Gay Sex Is Holy.”
A major Catholic leader, who has been chosen to be a cardinal by Pope Francis, believes all Christians must read homosexual novels, watch Brokeback Mountain and live with homosexuals; he also describes or gay sex as “eucharistic”, as we read in Breitbart:
Pope Francis has announced his intention to make 21 new cardinals on December 8, among whom is the pro-LGBT Dominican friar Timothy Radcliffe.
In 2023, the pontiff chose the woke friar to open the Vatican Synod on Synodality, who began his words by confessing, “I am old, white, a Westerner, and a man! I don’t know which is worse.”

Father Radcliffe has been a vocal supporter of progressive causes for decades, often lending his voice to the lobby to rehabilitate gay sex, insisting there is always time for future “evolution” on Catholic moral teaching, which has made him a darling of the LGBT lobby.
“The question always put is: is the Church’s teaching going to change? That’s not the issue,” Radcliffe said last year in relation to the Church’s moral stance against gay sex. “The issue is, will we love and welcome our fellow human beings?”
“If there are evolutions to happen, they will happen,” he added, “but you don’t start off by asking what changes have to be made.”
Radcliffe has publicly opposed the Church’s ban on admitting men with homosexual tendencies into seminaries to become priests.
In an interview with the London Times in 2005, Radcliffe argued that while “homophobia or misogyny” should be grounds for rejecting a candidate for the priesthood, his homosexuality should not.
“I have no doubt that God does call homosexuals to the priesthood, and they are among the most dedicated and impressive priests I have met,” he stated.
In a 2006 address to the Los Angeles Religious Education Conference, Radcliffe called on the Church to “stand with” gay people.

“We must accompany them as they discern what this means, letting our images be stretched open,” he exhorted. “This means watching ‘Brokeback Mountain,’ reading gay novels, living with our gay friends and listening with them as they listen to the Lord.”
In 2013, Father Radcliffe argued that gay sex can be “Eucharistic,” expressive of Christ’s self-gift in Holy Communion.
We cannot begin with the question of whether gay sex is permitted or forbidden!, he stated. “We must ask what it means, and how far it is Eucharistic.”
“Certainly it can be generous, vulnerable, tender, mutual and non-violent. So in many ways, I would think that it can be expressive of Christ’s self-gift,” he said.
“We can also see how it can be expressive of mutual fidelity, a covenantal relationship in which two people bind themselves to each other for ever,” he added.
