Mr. Minnery is a Catholic correct? Well the pope is like our president in the sense that he is the commander and chief of the 
Church right? If you are a Catholic in good standing in the mainstream church you must agree to follow the popes teachings right?  Pope Francis has announced to those who would listen that he wants the Church to be more open and less critical of all minorities including those who are gay. So Mr. Minnery needs to come into compliance or find another church. Not to mention Jesus would smile on him if he did bury the hatchet. Intolerance must end. And high five for the nonSullivan Assembly!
