The relentless targeting of LGBT Catholic employees and the ongoing witch hunts against gay priests are not only unjust but reflective of ignorance. You know what would happen if every LGBT church employee was fired, and every gay priest or bishop, or lesbian nun, quit their job?
Countless church institutions (including chanceries, cathedrals, parishes, high schools, colleges, hospitals, retreat houses, social service agencies and programs serving the poor, the aged and the sick) would simply grind to a halt.
LGBT people, some out, some not, are active in almost every ministry and at almost every level of the Catholic church. They are, and always have been, part of the Body of Christ. Tear them away, rip them apart, and the entire Body suffers.
