Lesbian ‘Priests’ at the Altar, Latin Priests in Exile: Welcome to the New Catholic Justice

Bishops can hand the chalice to lesbian “priests,” but a priest who says Mass in Latin gets suspension, exile, or excommunication.

When Blasphemy Becomes Pastoral

Bishop Raúl Vera López of Saltillo has outdone himself. At the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe, he handed the very words of consecration, the elevation of the chalice, the Gospel, and the homily over to a lesbian Anglican “priest” in a sodomite “marriage.” A woman in a stole, whispering the words of Christ, raising the Precious Blood of Our Lord for the people to adore, while a Catholic bishop smiled beside her.

Make no mistake, this was a deliberate profanation, a blasphemous parody of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The altar of God became the stage for a grotesque lie: that women can be priests, that sodomy can be holy, that heresy can stand equal with the one true faith. And the bishop himself gave the permission, the place, and the approval.

In any sane Catholic age, Vera would have been dragged before the Holy Office, defrocked, and anathematized. Gelasius and Innocent would have thundered against him. Benedict XIV would have called it what it is: sacrilege crying out to heaven. In medieval Christendom, such a public profanation would not just have meant loss of office, it would have meant public shame, exile, or worse. The offense against God is that grave.

But in our insane, post-Conciliar Church, he is still in good standing. No suspension. No investigation. No Rome wagging a finger. Instead, Vera cites Laudato si’ as if a treatise on carbon emissions somehow sanctifies handing over the chalice to a lesbian cleric. He even dared to call critics “witch hunters,” as though fidelity to the First Commandment were a crime of superstition.

This is the new pastoral reality: sacrilege is celebrated, while Catholicism is disciplined.

The Catalog of the Condemned

If you think Rome has gone soft, look again. It acts swiftly and decisively when the “offense” is being too Catholic. Here’s the record:

Fr. Sixto Eduardo Varela Santamaría — Costa Rica, 2021

His crime? Saying the Novus Ordo in Latin and ad orientem, exactly as the rubrics allow. His penalty? Six-month suspension and psychological “treatment.” Reverence punished as pathology.

Fr. Jeremy Leatherby — Sacramento, 2020

His crime? Omitting Francis’ name from the Canon and continuing to offer Mass despite suspension. His penalty? Declared to have incurred latae sententiae excommunication. Swift, merciless, final.

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò — 2024

His crime? Declaring Vatican II a false council and Francis an illegitimate pope. His penalty? Excommunication for schism. A man who spoke against modernism cut off, while Vera celebrates sacrilege unscathed.

Archbishop Lefebvre, Bishop Castro de Mayer, and the 4 SSPX Bishops — 1988

Their crime? Episcopal consecration from Archbishop Lefebvre to preserve the Traditional Mass and priesthood. Their penalty? Immediate latae sententiae excommunication. No patience, no tolerance, no dialogue.

Bishop Licínio Rangel — Brazil, 1991

His crime? Continuing the Lefebvrist line. His penalty? Excommunication, later lifted only after reconciliation on Rome’s terms.

Fr. Stephen Zigrang — Houston, 2002

His crime? Offering the Traditional Latin Mass exclusively to his parish. His penalty? Suspended by Cardinal Fiorenza. He eventually joined the Campos priests and then the SSPX. The Mass of his ordination became the grounds for his exile.

Fr. Paul Wickens — Newark, 1980s–1990s

His crime? Refusing to go along with the Novus Ordo, founding St. Anthony of Padua Chapel for faithful Catholics. His penalty? Suspended by Archbishop McCarrick, a man later exposed as a sexual predator. Wickens was faithful; McCarrick was monstrous. Guess which one Rome tolerated.

Fr. Marcel Guarnizo — Washington, D.C., 2012

His crime? Refusing Holy Communion to a woman in an open lesbian relationship at her mother’s funeral. His penalty? Suspended and quietly removed from ministry in the Archdiocese of Washington, with Church officials apologizing to the lesbian for his “lack of pastoral sensitivity.” A priest punished for upholding canon law, while bishops like Vera profane the altar without consequence.

Fr. Ronald Ringrose — Arlington, 1970s onward

His crime? Refusing to say the Novus Ordo. His penalty? Stripped of faculties, left to minister independently at St. Athanasius in Virginia. For decades he has given the faithful the Mass of the saints outside Rome’s approval.

Two Weights, Two Measures

The hypocrisy couldn’t be starker. Priests are suspended, excommunicated, or driven out for defending reverence, Latin, or the integrity of the Faith. But a bishop who hands over the chalice to a lesbian “pastor” at the altar remains untouchable.

Rome bares its fangs against tradition and purrs at sacrilege. It doesn’t lack the will to discipline, it simply reserves it for the Catholic faithful.

The Satanic Logic

This is no accident. It is the diabolical inversion of justice. Sacrilege advances the Conciliar Revolution, so it is excused. Tradition exposes that Revolution as false, so it is crushed. The message is crystal clear: if you want mercy, betray Christ. If you want condemnation, serve Him.

The New Witch Hunt

Vera mocked critics of his sacrilege by saying we’re past the age of witch hunts. He’s right in one sense: the witch hunt has changed targets. No more burning heretics. Only priests who are too Catholic face the bonfire now.

That’s why Vera still enjoys honor and retirement, while Varela is suspended, Leatherby is excommunicated, Viganò is anathematized, Rangel was cast out, Zigrang suspended, Wickens silenced, and Ringrose stripped of faculties.

This isn’t the discipline of the Church, it’s the punishment of fidelity.

Modern Rome no longer guards the altar. It desecrates it. And every priest who tries to keep the Faith is punished in the name of “unity.”
