text: The irony of Br. Paprocki's decree is the collective shrug from most members of the LGBT community. As a general rule, most parishes do not reach out to the LGBTs and would rather they not show up or be obvious. In spite of many priests professing "all are welcome" the truth is something different. I doubt Paprocki's decree is going to have much effect except to drive another wedge between the church and many of her members who actually take Jesus' teachings about loving our neighbor seriously.
