Love Thy Neighbor (Unless He's a Faggot)

It's happened again. And by "it" I mean hypocrisy exposing itself for all to see. A favorite topic over at DoG, to be sure.

Communion denied to rainbow-wearing parishioners.

A Roman Catholic priest denied communion to more than 100 people Sunday, saying they could not receive the sacrament because they wore rainbow-colored sashes to church to show support for gay Catholics.
...

Sister Gabriel Herbers said she wore a sash to show sympathy for the gay and lesbian community. Their sexual orientation "is a gift from God just as much as my gift of being a female is," she said.
Sister? That damn well better be short for "soul sister" or P. Benny (formerly known on the street as Joey Rats) is gonna come down on her like a ton of bibles. How many Hail Marys does one have to say to absolve oneself of the sin of compassion? Wait... is that a sin anymore? I'd better consult my Catholic to Real Life Omnibus.
