LGBT Rosary Endorsed by Fr. Martin Funds Pro-Abortion Groups
Funds Women for Women International and Southern Poverty Law Center
DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) - Father James Martin is trumpeting a pro-gay online store that happens donate to pro-abortion charities.
On Twitter Monday, the Jesuit celebrity priest recommended two products by a small online store that sells handmade jewelry.
https://twitter.com/JamesMartinSJ/status/1069762368824098816
One of the products the recommended is the "Rosary of Modern Sorrows." Each decade has a suggested intention, and the beads are color-coded to symbolize the intentions. Leftist social justice talking points are prominent among the intentions. For example, the second decade is made with blue and green beads to call to mind "Mother Earth" and "stewardship."

But the theme of the fifth decade has caused a firestorm on social media. The beads for the last mystery are rainbow-colored, and the suggested prayer of intention makes the blasphemous claim that God created homosexuals as they are and that this orientation — which the Catholic Catechism calls "objectively disordered" — is "good":

We pray for a welcoming of LGBTQ people by all churches, temples, mosques and synagogues. We pray for LGBTQ couples, their children, and extended families. We pray that they may be supported and loved, with full acceptance as people truly created in the image of God, a creation that God saw as "good," and who deserve to live every aspect of life to the fullest.
The organization selling this set of Rosary beads is Contemplative Rebellion, a social justice-themed online store that sells Christmas cards depicting the Holy Family alongside Colin Kaepernick earrings (and bracelets).

Kaepernick Earrings https://contemplativerebellion.com/collections/contemplative-rebellion/products/colin-kaepernick-earrings
Contemplative Rebellion gives a percentage of proceeds to non-profits. Many of those listed on the site's "Charities We Support" page are notoriously left-wing. Some are pro-abortion.
Included on the list are Women for Women International, Polaris and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Women for Women International is a charity where women from more developed countries can give money and aid to women in need in other parts of the world. But the international non-profit also promotes contraception and abortion and has partnered with Planned Parenthood.
Polaris is a group that, among other things, claims to fight human trafficking. But Polaris is also pro-abortion, having denounced Republicans in the U.S. Senate for defending the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits federal Medicaid funding for abortion (with the typical exceptions for life of the mother, rape and incest).
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is a radical leftist group that claims to fight racism, discrimination, hatred and extremism. In its early days, the SPLC indeed fought in the courts against the Ku Klux Klan. But in recent years, the SPLC has been accused of smearing conservative political opponents — including Christian pro-marriage organizations, and even Church Militant itself.
The SPLC is also pro-abortion. In 2009, it denounced the pro-life activists at Operation Rescue as "militant anti-abortionists."
While adding a pro-gay prayer intention to the Most Holy Rosary, Contemplative Rebellion is more true to the original with the Muslim prayer beads (known in Arabic as tesbih) and Tibetan Buddhist prayer beads (mala or japamala in Sanskrit) offered in its online store.
The small startup also sells a rainbow-themed wrap bracelet called "Love is Love is Love." The product description on the website states, "Dedicated to the beautiful, brave LGBTQIA parents who love each other and love their children, and decide to raise them in the love and light that every child deserves."

LORD HELP US How Many More Letters Will Be Added? LGBTQIA?
Pizzagate Related because here we have a Roman Catholic priest spreading normalization of the gay life which is against the Church's Teachings, and he is clearly in favor of desecrating Our Blessed Virgin's Rosary, and the SACRILIGIOUS Art Work.

Sorry Carmencita, I am not seeing how a fag abusing the Rosary is related to the sexual abuse of kids. This is only indirectly related and really doesn't help our investigation at all. I'll give this the 24 Hour Grace flair, though, in case there is some connection I am missing.

At the very least it helps to map out the gay-pedo-satanist network. Fr. Martin is definitely a bad actor trying to normalize homosexuality in the Catholic Church. I think 80% of the abuse cases in the Church were male-on-male (i.e. homosexual) in nature.
Vindicator ago
True, but that's still a very indirect connection. We've never accepted submissions on that basis, because the community decided early on it was just a vector for shills to exploit to discredit and dismiss us. Hence the direct relevance requirement. If there is any evidence that dude is supporting rehabilitation for pedo priests (and thus might be using funds raised from rosaries to help them, for example), I would be willing to leave this up. But if it's just he's gay and most pedo priests are gay...that's not enough. This will have to go in v/pizzagatewhatever as speculative.

How about this 2018 Catholic Conference on LGBT issues (featuring James Martin) which features a photo of a childs hand and adult hand finger walking towards each other along a rainbow? It obviously implies pedophilia in context of LGBT "rights"
Father James Martin was appointed in 2017 by Pope Francis as a consultant to the Vatican's Secretariat for Communications (Vatican PR)
He is also editor at large of America (the Jesuit magazine). The Jesuits just yesterday named 111 pedophile priests they knowingly protected.
After he was appointed by Francis to be Vatican PR, he publishes this article explaining away the pedophilia crisis in the church, while assuring the readers, that the church is now more "rigorous"
https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2017/12/20/father-james-martin-tracing-causes-sexual-abuse-catholic-church
He's been explaining away Catholic Priest abuse since 2010

@carmencita he's not only normalizing homosexuality, he is loyal to the church despite the sexual abuse revelations
And he is using coded imagery of kids and adults in relation to LGBT issues.
Is that a clear enough connection @vindicator?
Vindicator ago
Yep. That will do nicely. Thank you. @Carmencita, please edit that into the main body of your post as evidence this is pizzagate relevant, and I will remove the flair.
carmencita ago
Done and Thank You very much for helping out with this. Fr. James Martin is walking on the edge and trying to hide his pedo vibes under the radar.
Vindicator ago
Flair removed. :-)
carmencita ago
Thanks so much. He is horrid and it is important to out these guys because they try to pass themselves as quite the opposite of what they really are. I am waiting for him to trip himself up again.
carmencita ago

A little hung R we? :-D
carmencita ago
Ha Ha. Actually all I had was apple cider. Doesn't take much these days. LOL. No, the place was so crowded and packed it was quite a task getting out an home. Never again.
shewhomustbeobeyed ago
Ugh, crowds are definitely the worst.
carmencita ago
Never again. I felt like I drank a vat of beer and I only had an apple cider. I was so worked over by the crowd. Body to body. We had to hang on to each other to stay together. All mostly young people drinking kegs of beer. Yeah everyone thought i drank, they couldn't believe a crowd could do that much damage. LOL.
shewhomustbeobeyed ago
I hope you feel better quickly.
