Yeah, only negative was he split the vote. My dad voted for him back in the day, couldn't stomach neocons yet, my mom still gives him shit for it every voting season
I go to a NO parish, live in a small town and don’t have another close by option. The priest is a Jesuit, which gave me pause a while ago, but I shrugged it off. I’ve also wondered if he was a homo for years now, but didn’t really have proof
Fr T is liberal and weak, gives flowery homilies with silly anecdotes about his life growing up. Vomit. And the pastoral associate is a raging homosexual, very overt. And the canter gave me a father James Martin book to read.

fun fact: in Chapter 1 of the collection of texts from II Vatican Council it specifically says _"The Church is not constituted for the glory of this world"_
