Surge Summary: A Roman Catholic priest publicly criticizes the Los Angeles Dodgers for honoring the blasphemous, anti-Catholic “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence”. He is then attacked for allegedly attacking homosexuals. This is a favored LGBTQ activist tactic – and is recently on the increase across America.

“What happened to a Cleveland, Ohio, priest was shameful, but was only one of many hateful attacks on churches,” said Ruth Institute President Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D.
At a recent Mass, Fr. Tim Gareau expressed outrage over the Los Angeles Dodgers honoring the anti-Catholic Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. He accused the Sisters of, “Defaming the name of every Christian here on earth. It just burns a hole in my heart, angers me and embitters me.” Parishioners applauded, which is unusual in a Catholic Mass.
After he spoke, a woman named Avery Arden approached the podium and
accused the priest of defaming “queer and trans people.” She said Fr. Tim baptized her and that she now lives in Georgia with her “wife.” Three men from the congregation escorted Arden from the church.
“This is a favorite tactic of LGBTQ activists,” Morse said. “They malign the Catholic Church. When Catholics respond, they’re accused of attacking gays.”
“Homosexual conduct is rejected by 2,000 years of Church teaching, as it was by Judaism before it. Just as transgenderism is a denial of nature, the idea that homosexuality is compatible with Catholicism is equally untenable.”
Cleveland’s newspaper, The Plain Dealer, gave a biased report on the incident, quoting an unnamed parishioner who stated she wouldn’t come back to that church. A subsequent story on RedState revealed that Arden has ties to domestic terrorist and anti-police groups.
“Hostility toward Catholicism and other Christian denominations is growing,” Morse said. “A Family Research Council report showed 420 hostile acts against churches in the last five years. We must be fearless and not be intimidated by aggressors who try to position themselves as victims.”
The Ruth Institute invites others to join a prayer campaign to support Fr. Tim Gareau at the
Ruth Institute Facebook page.
