Father's Day 2013, Cardinal Francis George lead mass in honor of AGLO 25th anniversary. Why his homophobic bigotness would pretend to treat a gay Catholic congregation equally as a heterosexual crowd is befuddling.
Joe Murray founder of Rainbow Sash stood and turned his back on the Cardinal during his service. Joe was refused communion by the Cardinal for his stand. A choir member went for communion a second time to get the host for Joe. Her behavior was more like Christ than the Cardinal's.

"Chicago, which has not escaped the scandal, escapes Berry's focus…almost. He notes that three years after the Catholic Church adopted a youth protection charter in 2002, "Cardinal Francis George…put an accused pedophile back in ministry over warnings from his advisory board. The priest reoffended, went to jail, the archdiocese paid heavily to the victims —and Cardinal George was elected president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops." " ~Chicago Tribune http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/books/ct-books-0817-review-render,0,1427214.story
Cardinal Francis George takes the word hypocrite to new levels.
The real reason that Cardinal George wants to keep spinning the same sex marriage issue is a smoke screen. If you are focused on creating controversy on gay marriage, then people are not going to look at the pedophilia problem. Giving him time to put a bandage on this gaping wound. After all, it is very realistically the reason that the previous pope has to go into retirement. Either for his poor management of the problem or his possible personal behaviors.
Why do these gay Catholics think that they are actually being treated as equals. Several conversations, remarks and inside reports have the same hateful denial. Some believe that their constant positive pressure will somehow result in a better understanding. Is this hope or just a self deluded desire? That has yet to be seen.
Final issue with this homophobic Cardinal from hell is his participation in influencing the legislative process. This should most definitely be investigated with regards to the tax exempt status of the church and most certainly, Cardinal Francis George personally.
