A parish web site with pictures of men kissing and the pastor blessing the participants of a gay pride parade must of course be the infamous Most Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in San Francisco. [Via The Lair of the Catholic Cavemen]
The pastor Fr. Meriwether is reportedly on leave from his duties after so many complaints to the Archdiocese for this parish allowing the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence holding bingo games with sex toy prizes in the parish hall. Unfortunately it appears the Archdiocese is now allowing Fr. Meriwether to return to his parish. This Sunday they are holding a pancake breakfast in honor of his return. So now that the media attention has gone away from the last fiasco it appears that everything is back to what can be called normal there. People thought that the infamous St. Joan parish with it’s rainbow flag was scandalous, but this parishes web site puts them into the bush leagues.
Not surprising this parish also has monthly Monthly Celebration of the Anointing of the Sick where all are invited to come and participate. Somehow I don’t think the parish is populated by one hundred percent of people who are "dangerously ill" in regards to canon law.
Please send a polite email to the archdiocese about this scandalous situation.

Well, there’s different kinds of “dangerously ill,” I suppose.
Did you notice this? The background is the parish’s church and the pictures of the gay parade stand right in the center blocking the altar. Isn’t that a bit ironic?
The Cross of Christ is rendered null, as he died for our sins, if there is no such thing as sin.
