Imagine a Bishop who told Catholics they were committing sin, and they should repent...

Kneeling "is clearly rebellion, grave disobedience and mortal sin," Father Martin Tran, pastor at St. Mary's by the Sea, told his flock in a recent church bulletin. The Diocese of Orange backs Tran's anti-kneeling edict.

Now, imagine if the priest said "cruising gay bars and having anonymous sex is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said: "having sex outside of marriage is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said "using artificial birth control is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said: "getting drunk and using marijuana and cocaine are disobedience and mortal sin".
or if he said: "Putting your mother in a nursing home and neglecting her because your social life is too busy is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said: "Putting your kids in daycare not because you need to work to make ends meet, but merely so you can fulfill yourself is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said: "Lying on your income tax is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said: "having an abortion is grave disobedience and mortal sin"
or if he said:"Going to see a movie that blasphemes the divinity of Christ is grave disobedience and mortal sin"...

naaah...too radical...
