The homophobic hate pouring out of Catholic mouths in response to Father James Martin and Cardinal Marx will continue to prance about in public just as long as lay Catholics permit it to keep doing so.
Catholic theologians and Catholic journals bear a huge load of responsibility for either checking and challenging this hate, relegating it to the margins of the church, defining it as anti-gospel, or blessing it through silent complicity. Or mendacious headlines.
