Archbishop Niederauer giving Communion to theSan Francisco, Oct 10, 2007 / 03:09 pm (CNA).- The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group of men mockingly dressed as religious sisters, received Holy Communion from the Archbishop of San Francisco last Sunday.

The “sisters”, dressed in costume and white facial paint, and with names such as “Sister Porn Again” and “Sister Roz Erection,” were given the Eucharist by Archbishop George Niederauer at the Most Holy Redeemer parish in San Francisco.

California Catholic Daily reports that the parish and its pastor, Father Stephen Meriwether, have been sympathetic to the predominately homosexual population of the Castro district in San Francisco where it is located.

Americans for Truth about Homosexuality adds that the parish has participated in the San Francisco Gay Pride Parade and allowed the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to lease a hall for “Revival Bingo”, giving the men in the group the opportunity to dress as sisters and award prizes such as sex toys and porn DVDs.

Americans for Truth also reports that while many orthodox Catholic organizations detest the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for their anti-Catholic and anti-Christian actions, they are also known as a charity group in the San Francisco area that raises money for causes such as AIDS.

Parishoners were disappointed that the archbishop didn’t preach to the sisters, whose slogan is “Go forth and sin some more!”

The witness stated that the archbishop’s homily was very generic. “He could have used the occasion to preach to them, but he didn’t.”

Allyson Smith, an analyst for Americans for Truth, noted, “San Francisco Archbishop George Niederauer did not condemn the depravity of Folsom Street Fair, which occurred in front of one of his own parishes or the blasphemous antics of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence there. Yet one week later, he gave Holy Communion, which Catholics believe is the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, to these same twisted ’sisters’ who were dressed in full drag costumes.”[/quote]

i dont think there would be a problem if they were just dressed as nuns,as i think that is pretty funny, but it sounds like there actions while in said getup were quite designed to be mocking

[KnightofChrist]

What happened was blasphemy against Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist.

[GodChild]

And these "sisters" are more sinful than the Catholics who go for communion .... how?

[KnightofChrist]

Because good catholics have repentance of their sins and go to confession before receiving the Most Holy Eucharist.

While these sodomites are very prideful and unrepeated of their great sin while mocking the Church's holy vocation of sisterhood and receiving the Most Holy Eucharist in that state is a abomination before God.

I was under the impression that San Francisco's archbishop was pretty solid, pro-family, defending marriage, etc. Guess not.

Really? Most Catholics don't go to confession and do not even believe in the real presence

There is no reason for Catholics to allow their Faith to be mocked within our houses of worship.

For what it's worth, there is a big difference between ignorance and mockery of the Catholic Faith.
