Fr Sean Sheehy Claims Leo Varadkar Is 'Absolutely' Going To Hell (Extra.ie)

The priest who condemned same-sex couples, abortion and transgenderism at a mass in Kerry last week has claimed Irish politicians who support same sex.

We see it in the promotion of abortion. We see it in the legislation of our Government. We see it for example in this lunatic approach of transgenderism. That is a mortal sin and people don't seem to realise it. When you go against God, who is the author of life, you actually go against life itself.' That is sinful.

Fr Sean Sheehy said that he believed that the Bishop of Kerry was 'muzzling the truth in order to appease people'.

We see it, for example, in the promotion of sex between two men and two women. Some people attending the Mass left the church as a result, to which the priest told them “God help you… It’s rampant,” Fr Sheehy said during his homily delivered over the weekend. He added that he believed that the bishop was “muzzling the truth in order to appease people”. He said that to have “total respect for one another” was a “fundamental Christian teaching”, and for these issues to be spoken of “in such terms” a weekend parish Mass was not appropriate. In response to the comments, Bishop of Kerry Ray Browne apologised to those who were offended by Fr Sheehy’s “offending” homily and said his views do not represent “the Christian position”.

We see it in the promotion of abortion we see it and in the example of this lunatic approach of transgenderism and in the promotion of sex between two men and two women. This fundamental Christian teaching was beautifully proclaimed in the Book of Wisdom at Mass last Sunday, in the second reading, and in the Gospel of the Beatitudes at Mass today, November 1 st, the Feast of All Saints." "The Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is a Gospel of love and ever proclaims the dignity of every human person. I regret that this occurred while a parish pilgrimage to the Holy Land is taking place. We see it for example in the legislation. The homily at a regular weekend parish Mass is not appropriate for such issues to be spoken of in such terms.
